5 year sentence recommended for former Baltimore Mayor

Back in November, we learned that disgraced former Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh had avoided a messy trial by pleading guilty to multiple counts of corruption and tax evasion. This all stemmed from her self-dealing scheme to “sell” hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of her self-published “Healthy Holly” children’s books to people and businesses who had dealings with the University of Maryland Medical System, where Pugh sat as a board member.

At the time, I wondered what sort of deal she had cut with the prosecutors in exchange for the guilty plea. Whatever other information she provided to the state might not have turned out to be all that valuable because prosecutors aren’t letting her off with a slap on the wrist. They’re looking for nearly five years behind bars in addition to some hefty fines. (CBS Baltimore)

She had Entitled-Black-Woman-Corruption written all over her. You could see it a mile away.

She thought she was higher on the totem pole than she really was. She mistakenly thought she was a congressman or ex-president who can get away with stuff like this.

She should get 10 years.

How about some symmetry with her suggestion? Ten years and 10 days.

I am a bit of a nay-sayer when it comes to the two tiered legal system in this country. So, since she is a leftist (i.e democrat) she will get off with time served and probably get to keep the book profits as a nice consolation prize so she has plenty of money.
