Rev. Al Sharpton goes to jail

Veteran civil right activist Rev. Al Sharpton will go to jail as he was found guilty of protesting in a disorderly fashion. He has already served 5 and 1/2 hrs in jail. May need to serve more.

He was convicted in New York. He was protesting over the killing of Sean Bell by the police and the cops who were responsible for this were set free by the court. Mr Sharpton was part of 250 people who were arrested in May for blocking traffic on subways and bridges.
