Jim Morrison Posthumously Pardoned

Stranger things have happened. But Jim Morrison’s posthumous pardon for indecent exposure ranks pretty high on our WTF list. Forty one years ago, The Doors singer was performing in Miami when he decided that he and has fans should be a lot closer. To that effect, he reportedly pulled down his pants and decided to show the audience his little Jim (or big Jim, we weren’t there). Jim was promptly carted off to jail where he spent six months, post which he kept trying repeal the conviction because he supposedly had proof that there wasn’t any actual exposure. Unfortunately two years later, he died (RIP, Jim), and never got a chance to over turn the sentence.
But since Jim left behind legions and generations of admirers, one of them decided to get Jim that pardon anyway. Three years ago, a die-hard Doors fan started he process by appealing Governor Charlie Crist to reopen the case, so the singer’s name could be cleared. And now, three years later, completing a story that began in 1969, Jim has his pardon. As far as Governor Crist is concerned, it never happened. Justice for Jim! You know the Governor had to be fan for this slate to be wiped clean.
