COLUMBIA, S.C. — from www2.wspa.com – Former U.S. Senate candidate Alvin Greene wants a jury to decide whether he’s guilty of the obscenity charges he’s facing. He’s charged with misdemeanor and felony counts of showing pornography to a University of South Carolina student in a dorm computer room, then asking to go to her room.
Greene was in a Columbia courtroom Tuesday and the prosecutor handling the case thought Greene was going to plead guilty. The solicitor’s office had offered to let Greene plead guilty to just the misdemeanor charge.
But Greene changed his mind and asked for a jury trial. That will take place in January at the earliest.
“I’m really angry about what happened today. I was expecting to be over with this and have him sentenced today,” said Camille McCoy Tuesday afternoon. She’s the USC student Greene is charged with showing the pornography to.
“I would like to see him in handcuffs,” she said.
Her mother Susan added, “We thought that was going to happen today. That would be our dream, for him to go to jail.”
Greene faces a maximum of three years in prison on the misdemeanor charge and five years on the felony.
Greene was the surprise winner of the South Carolina Democratic primary for U.S. Senate. He lost to incumbent Republican Sen. Jim DeMint in the general election.
