Former state senator and GOP delegate Frank Antenori convicted of trespassing at Fort Huachuca

A former Arizona state senator pleaded guilty last month to illegally accessing military property. But the federal misdemeanor hasn't slowed him down.

Frank Antenori traveled to Cleveland as one of Arizona's Republican delegates supporting presidential candidate Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention.

According to federal court records, Antenori, a retired Army special forces soldier, was charged in January with illegally hunting on Fort Huachuca property in southern Arizona. On June 20, he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of illegally accessing the military-base land. According to records, he said he was retrieving equipment. He could have faced up to six months in jail. He was given a $489 fine. Antenori is still allowed to visit the military base to access services and for military business, but he cannot hunt on the base.

With no probation or jail time, Antenori was free to travel to Cleveland and make Hillary Clinton jail jokes to his heart's content.
