      Well, he absconded before sentencing. I’m sure that will affect the sentence handed down.

        Prosecutors had sought a 14 year prison sentence for Worrell.

        Let’s hope it’s enhanced for running away.

      I’m fine with not knowing the consequences yet. Compare it to a meal that you know will be good: this is just the appetizer.

      Comfort yourself with the knowledge that he’s shitting his pants in prison every minute, while we wait for news. In our homes.

      Realistically they haven’t been applied yet. Give it a few days

      From another article:

      “They discovered the 52-year-old unconscious and immediately provided medical attention,” the release said. “Worrell was transferred to an area hospital where he remains at this time.”

      Sounds like he tried to commit suicide. I’m glad he was found.
