Anyone remember a certain deranged poster predicting Cantrell was going to roll over and bring down a whole lot of other people with him?

HAMMOND | Robert Cantrell was sentenced to six and one-half years in prison Tuesday morning in Hammond federal court.
On June 6, the former Democratic operative was convicted on 11 counts involving kickbacks and fraud. The 67-year-old Schererville resident was charged with four counts of depriving the public of honest services, three counts of insurance fraud using the U.S. mail and four counts of filing false income tax returns between 2000 and 2003.
The indictment accused the East Chicago-based fixer of taking kickbacks linked to a contract between his then-employer, the North Township trustee's office, and his political ally, Nancy Fromm.
Cantrell did not take the stand in his own defense.
