Ed Jew Lands 1 More Year In Jail for Perjury

After last week's sentencing was postponed due to an ill judge, disgraced former SF Supervisor Ed Jew was sentenced in state court today to an additional year in the pookey "for lying on election documents about residing in San Francisco." Representing the Sunset District in 2006, Jew claimed to live in San Francisco, but later admitted to living in Burlingame (since 1997!) at the time of his tenure on the Board of Supervisors. "I deeply regret the decision I made," Jew told San Francisco Superior Court Judge Kay Tsenin today. "I never should have made that declaration." Jew is scheduled to start his sentence, which includes five-plus additional years after a federal ruling, on July 1. According to reports, "[W]ith credit for good behavior, Jew will serve about 85 percent of the federal prison time, and will likely then be assigned to a community service program and would only have to serve three to four months of the county jail sentence."

Ed's mouthpiece: "Most politicians don't receive sentences like this."

Well gee, Suart Hanlon, most politicians don't commit the crimes Ed does, right?

to be sure, aside from perjury, it is only politicians who can commit those crimes at all.

No, I'm pretty sure many of them do.

Would be nice to see anyone who ever took money/gifts from a lobbyist locked up for life IMO.

so, no bringing back oh no ed jew? damn.

Prison rape jokes in five... four... three...

I like how he's sorry that he decided to lie on the form, but apparently not sorry that he decided run for a SF city office when he didn't actually live here.

I wonder which county he's going to serve in

He would have been a great legislator in his town of Burlingame.

Signed,
A Burlingame resident
