This chapter provided you with information on the stages of becoming a political criminal, and discussed specific types of political crime. In "Political Crime," you were asked to make decisions from the perspective of a prosecutor, an attorney for the defense, and a judge in an election fraud case. What was your reaction to the fact that this case started out as a felony charge that was overturned and ended up as a felony charge? There is a possibility that the conviction could be appealed. What outcome would you expect? Why? What kind of sentence would you have given Bristol if you had been the judge? Explain your choices.
