Actually I think he will serve some time. He won't do the full three years, for sure. But the judge did sentence him 10 years on another charge but gave him community service as a way to serve the sentence. I'm not a legal expert, but my understanding is that once a judge pronounces the sentence, until there is an appeal that overturns the conviction, the person is taken in custody and processed right away.

Now Ramona; I keep trying to tell you that de Lay did it didn't do it just to help people!

"Hastert, an Illinois Republican who was House speaker from 1999 to 2006, testified that DeLay was not motivated by power but for a need to help others. Hastert talked about DeLay's conservative and religious values, his efforts to provide tax relief for his constituents in Texas, his work helping foster children and the help he provided to the family of one of the police officers who was killed in a 1998 shooting at the U.S. Capitol in Washington."
