Alexis Bortell, 12, Won’t Let Court Loss Stop Jeff Sessions Medical Pot Fight

In early 2016, we told you about the Western Slope arrest of former Texas death-row resident Claude Wilkerson for allegedly keeping a woman chained to his bed and repeatedly raping her. Just over two years later, Wilkerson has agreed to a plea deal in the case, and it's a sweet one. He's admitted guilt to a pair of lesser charges, for which he'll serve just six years behind bars and three on probation — an astonishingly brief sentence given the initial description of his crimes.
