40 YEARS AFTER IT BEGAN, THE LAST PRISONER FROM MY MONEY LAUNDERING DAYS HAS BEEN RELEASED

I see that JOSE ELIAS SEPULVEDA, who was the last individual in Federal custody connected to my Miami Vice money laundering case, was released from prison last year. He received two Life Sentences for drug crimes, in a massive case where the Court handed down even more severe punishment, if you can believe such things still happen for non-violent offenses.

Having served more than 25 years, he is now seventy years old; I note that he became a subject of the Last Prisoner Project, which targeted those serving extremely long terms for marijuana convictions. Otherwise, he would still be imprisoned. Given that marijuana has been more or less legalized, I wonder if justice was truly served in his case.
