This is great news and I am glad for him. There is one sad part to all of this: Ray Donovan was Sec'y of Labor (if I remember correctly) for Reagan early in the first term. He was indicted and resigend his position. The trial (and I am sayinbg this as a life-long Democrat) was pretty much a slam dunk for the defense and that this was purely political. He asked a line I always remember to the press gathered outside the court: "Where do I go to get my reputation back?" Those of us who love the game and follow along with it know the name and the circumstances and the scapegoating here, John is vindicated. For those who know little and just scan the Courier-Journal headlines or the always positive NY Times stories, it made Page 1 when it happened, and it will be beneath the ads for dog grooming now that he is vindicated.
