Federal prosecutors will seek a 21-month prison sentence for the man accused of tackling U.S. Sen. Rand Paul in the Kentucky lawmaker's yard, according to a court document that says the man "had enough" when he saw the Republican stacking more brush onto an existing pile.

The court document filed by federal prosecutors underscored that the motive behind the attack stemmed from a dispute about yard maintenance between the two Kentucky neighbors.

In comments to police, neighbor Rene Boucher indicated the attack was not politically motivated, the court document said. Instead, it had to do with a property dispute that boiled over, it said.

"While federal prosecutors will recommend a nearly two-year prison sentence, Boucher's attorney said Monday he will argue that his client should not serve any jail time. Attorney Matt BRead Fuaker said his client is "a good and a decent person" who made a "big mistake."

I would be surprised if this guy serves any jail time at all. I hope no hospital ever hires this man to work in their facility. I wouldn't want him putting me to sleep. You may not wake up. He's a fruit loop.

It's a Fed beef. He's doing time. They are not big on "it was just my first time being a felon" excuses.

It would be nice to send more millionaire libs to jail that think they are invulnerable.

I hope you are right. I don't think 21 months is long enough though. Maybe that is the most they can give him under the law?
