Sex Offender Veronica Bullock Gets 5 Years - Updated

From AZStarnet.com:

[Pima County Superior Court Judge Nanette Warner] revoked the probation after Bullock admitted she’d used drugs and alcohol and had been kicked out of a residential treatment program.

Prosecutor Shawn Jensvold argued that based on Bullock’s "lack of commitment to probation, she’s clearly not a good candidate."

Bullock will receive credit for 64 days served.

Five years in prison was the original request of the prosecution before Judge Warner gave Bullock probation. Heh.
