Rand Paul attacker pleads guilty
By Morgan Gstalter - 03/09/18 01:49 PM EST

The Kentucky man who tackled Sen. Rand Paul (R- Ky.) last year over a dispute about landscaping has pleaded guilty to an assault charge.

Rene Boucher was released on a $25,000 unsecured bond on Friday after he formally pleaded guilty to one felony charge of assaulting a member of Congress resulting in personal injury, according to CNN.

His sentencing date is tentatively scheduled for June 15.

Boucher agreed to the plea deal in January, and federal prosecutors are pursuing a 21-month jail sentence against him.

The Nov. 3 attack at his Bowling Green, Ky., home left Paul with six broken ribs and bruised lungs.

The senator called his recovery “a living hell.” 

Paul opened up about the attack last month, saying the “rage reaction” from Boucher stemmed from a dispute over landscaping. Boucher was apparently angry at Paul for stacking a pile of brush near his property.

“I’m really proud of my yard,” Paul told late-night host Stephen Colbert. “How could someone be so mad about grass clippings?”

Couldn't happen to a more deserving fellow.

But I still have my doubts this was about grass clippings.   :smokin:

Almost 2 years in a Federal Prison. Even if he only does a 1/3 that is some real time.

Good, someone that violent and unbalanced doesn't belong anywhere near patients.

This is EXCELLENT!  This guy deserves to be booted out of the medical profession and spend some time behind bars.

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

Hope his smug a** ends up living in a cardboard box on the street for awhile to gain some well needed humility.
