More on Hugh King

I realize Pensacola is a long way from Los Angeles, but the painful downfall of disgraced Pastor Hugh King is too fascinating to let go.  Since he announced his plans to plead plea no contest to a cocaine-possession charge. Now King faces political retribution in the form of removal  from the park's Board of Trustees.

"My view is that we are really considering a disposition here as to whether he should continue to serve ... and for the purposes of that, (a no contest plea) is considered the same as a guilty plea," Collier said.

King refused to admit his guilt, pleading no contest is simply the next phase of his efforts to escape direct responsibility. This time it could cost him.
