Trump-boosting former crack dealer risks return to prison as prosecutors challenge release
Washington Examiner ^ | Oct. 4, 2019

Steffeny “Stet” Frazier, a 51-year-old former crack cocaine dealer, says he “most definitely” will vote for President Trump next year if he’s not returned to prison to complete a life sentence that was ended in August under the Trump-signed First Step Act.

Frazier, an outspoken Trump supporter and father of eight, the youngest born after his arrest at age 26, is among a handful of people released under the new law who now risk being returned to prison as prosecutors appeal the release of some large-scale crack dealers.

Frazier's supporters say his case is a potential injustice and want prosecutors to drop the appeal. Briefs are due this month to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit, but Frazier’s case may ultimately hinge on two similar cases that are further along.

Is this a story because of the homo Dem donor who was killing homeless drug addicts? Gotta have some junkies for Trump!

Actually, in many states felons who are no longer in prison and are off paper (done with any parole time, etc...) get all of their God-given rights restored - JUST AS THEY SHOULD BE!

Depends on which state he resides in.

Per the article, case is in Florida but “Frazier, currently living with family in southern Georgia, said fellow African Americans are surprised when he discusses Trump.”

Both Florida and Georgia allow convicted felons to vote as long as they have completed their sentences.

Agree with that which you posit completely, he paid his dues and his inalienable rights should be restored. They were temporarily removed but permanently, get a life!

Absolutely agree those voting rights should be restored when sentence and maybe, restitution is completed/made. The debt to society paid...

Maybe 2nd Amendment rights also? Of Course it would also pertain that the 2A rights were protected for the rest of society.

Stay sharp gents!
