Gartman Convicted!

OK, file this under "whyinthehell didn't I hear this before?"

Tom Gartman, the rape porn spammer who fled to Canada and was later extradited, was convicted in Texas on obscenity charges back in March. Last I'd heard, he was just coming to trial.

Gartman was convicted along with Alan McDowell. He faces up to ten years in prison and a $500,000 fine.

Read all about it in the Department of Justice press release and the Dallas Morning News.
