Crist To Pardon Jim Morrison

Doors singer Jim Morrison was famously arrested on obscenity charges for exposing himself during a Miami concert in 1969.

Morrison was convicted of exposure and profanity charges, though he died in 1971 before he could serve any jail time.

Now Florida Governor Charlie Crist, having been trounced in his run for the Senate, has announced one of the last actions he may take as governor is to pardon Morrison posthumously.

Weird.

But if George Pataki could pardon Lenny Bruce on obscenity charges in New York, I guess Crist can pardon Morrison in Florida.
