A judge on Friday agreed to free a South Florida Marine veteran from a prison in Mexico, according to spokespeople for two congressional members. Jon Hammar is seen in an undated photograph provided by his family. Jon Hammar, 27, was being held at the Matamoros prison on a gun charge, but at a hearing it was determined he had no intent to commit a crime by taking the firearm to Mexico, a defense lawyer told U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson's office. "No American should be in a Mexican jail for five months without being able to have his case in front of a judge," Nelson said Friday. "We're grateful; this is a good Christmas present."With the judge’s ruling, Hammer was expected to be released after noon Friday, according to a statement from U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.

- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
