Criminal Arrest

I wonder if anyone in Hollywood will sign a petition to keep this guy out of the country:

Interior Ministry spokeswoman Sabine Hadad said Wednesday that Nelson, 59, was convicted last year in a California court on 52 counts of sexual abuse of minors and sentenced to 110 years in prison.(link)

Thanks to Interpol and Israel another scumbag will be coming home to rot.

“I have to leave the state, really. I can’t live here under this Orwellian protocol,” Jack McClellan told television station KABC for a report that aired Sunday. “It’s nightmarish.”
