Lawmaker eligible for release in early 2012

Schmitz
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Authorities say a federal judge in Birmingham has re-imposed a 30-month sentence on former Alabama state Rep. Sue Schmitz.
Officials tell us that she will be eligible for release early next year.
Her attorney, William Clark, said she could be eligible to be moved to a halfway house in October, but the federal Bureau of Prisons has not found one for her.
Schmitz was one of 17 people who were convicted or pleaded guilty during a federal investigation of Alabama's two-year college system.
U.S. District Judge David Proctor also re-imposed previous restitution of $177,251.
