FIGURES HE'S DONE HIS TIME

Reckon I might figure it that way too.
A judge suspended the remainder of a convict's work-release sentence because of his military service in Iraq.

Allen Superior Judge John F. Surbeck Jr. issued an order releasing Matthew C. Foster last week.

Foster, 22, returned to Allen County Work Release to complete the sentence in December after he returned from Iraq, where he served as a sergeant in the Indiana National Guard's 1st Battalion, 293rd Infantry.

Foster was serving a one-year sentence on charges of residential entry, theft and invasion of privacy when he was temporarily released to join his Guard unit in November 2002.
