TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — It’s a strange sheaf of documents for Florida’s governor to have. The thick notebook describes how Jim Morrison discussed sex with a lamb he held on stage, ordered fans to “love your neighbor ’til it hurts” and later, at trial, defended his boozy singing to a prosecutor.
But did the lead singer of The Doors show his genitals to the crowd at the 1969 concert in Miami, a charge on which he was famously convicted? Gov. Charlie Crist wants to posthumously pardon him of indecent exposure and profanity convictions, and the governor’s last chance is coming up at a Clemency Board meeting next Thursday. Crist leaves office in January.
