Holy Moly!

DALLAS - An HIV-positive man convicted of spitting into the eye and mouth of a Dallas police officer has been sentenced to 35 years in prison.

Because a jury found that Willie Campbell used his saliva as a deadly weapon, the 42-year-old will have to serve half his sentence before becoming eligible for parole. He was sentenced Wednesday.

Campbell was being arrested in May 2006 for public intoxication when he began resisting and kicking inside the patrol car, Dallas police office Dan Waller testified.

Campbell was convicted of harassment of a public servant.

To my dear friend

I am so sorry for your loss. You specifically asked that people not call you to console you and I will respect your wishes. I will simply put out this wave length of hope that you endure and not only survive but emerge stronger than you were previously. I can only imagine the pain of your loss since I have not felt it myself.I realize it will be a challenge but please remember that it will do you better to keep a smile on and to keep on truckin'. It is good to see your smiling face again. Stay strong and rely on those who have made themselves available to you May be peace be with you and those that have crossed your path.
