From my above link:

I can't believe he ended up with a plea to domestic violence.....this is so wrong IMO


"Baldwin County prosecutors tried Nodine for murder, but a jury could not reach a verdict. Ultimately, he accepted a plea bargain in which he admitted to a misdemeanor domestic violence charge and a perjury offense related to a form he filled out for a court-appointed lawyer."

"Nodine currently is serving a two-year jail sentence and has gone on a public relations blitz to try to rehabilitate his image and convince people he had nothing to do with Downs’ death. He has maintained that Downs was unstable and took her own life that night."

The murder case against former Mobile County Commissioner Stephen Nodine gets another national airing this week as part of a Investigation Discovery series called. The episode is called, "Love the Way You Lie."

The Nodine episode airs Wednesday at 9 p.m. on the Investigation Discovery channel.

Nodine recently got out of jail after serving a sentence for perjury, misdemeanor harassment and an ethics violation. He admitted guilt to those charges as part of a plea bargain a year after his December 2010 murder trial ended in a hung jury on the most serious charges.

Trump should pardon Nodine, says Washington Examiner opinion piece – WKRG News 5

"An opinion piece in today’s Washington Examiner says the next person President Trump should consider pardoning is former Mobile County Commissioner Steve Nodine.

“Before President Trump even considers pardoning yet another political heavyweight like Rod Blagojevich, Eddie DeBartolo, or the just-sentenced Roger Stone, he should pardon people more deserving,” wrote Mobile-based conservative political writer Quin Hillyer.

Nodine was charged in 2010 of possessing a firearm while using a controlled substance. He admitted to smoking marijuana at the beach while owning a gun that was locked in his house 90 minutes away in Mobile. Nodine served a year in federal prison for the crime.

Federal prosecutors brought the charge after Nodine was arrested for murder in the shooting death of his mistress Angel Downs in Gulf Shores. Forced into federal court before his murder trial, Nodine pleaded guilty."

"After a hung jury in his murder trial, Nodine entered an Alford Plea (a defendant does not admit to a criminal act and asserts innocence) on a harassment charge and served two years in the Baldwin County jail."
