24 hours??
Not long enough!!
Amen! But what goes around comes around!
I agree, but it’s funny how karma always comes back around…
Whats up with this??? Why just 24 hours??? I feel like he should spend his sentence since he doesn’t abide by his parole requirements. Thats why we have courts and orders, I thought.
There are always loopholes…one can only speculate. Maybe his PO didn’t revoke him.
