James "Jimmer" Doherty
10 years
Marijuana Conspiracy

My name is
Jimmer. I was imprisoned on a ten year federal sentence for what
was a minor role in a marijuana grow. The organizer became an
informant and served no time in prison.
I am 49 years old, married and have five children and one
grandchild. It is a 4,000 mile round trip for my impoverished
family to visit, so I won't receive them often.
I will have completed my sentence in the year 2007, having
missed out being with my children during their formative years.
Before my arrest, I had never been in trouble with the law. My
views have not changed on the morality of our legislation - I
am now positive that the worst effect of this herb is the war
we wage upon it.
