Man To Spend Every Christmas In Jail For Next 5 Years

Daniel Martz learned the hard way how dangerous it is to get sentenced by a judge during an election year. District Court Judge Nels Swandal, who is running for the state Supreme Court, sentenced Martz to report to jail each Dec. 15 through Jan. 1 for the next five years. Judge Swandal says spending the holidays in jail will help keep Martz out of trouble. It looks like the next 5 years are always winter and never Christmas for Daniel.
