State Senator Ron Calderon was arrested in February for allegedly taking bribes. State Senator Leland Yee was arrested in March for allegedly trafficking in firearms and taking bribes. State Senator Ben Hueso was arrested Friday on suspicion of drunk driving charges.

After all, given that the CA Senate is majority democrat, true prosecution for felonies should yeald around a 75% arrest rate.
A sound reason for California to adopt a unicameral legislature.
Who needs 40 state senate felons?
Mamma tried.
I love the whole concept of this article!
