This seems a little inconsistent as Martha Stewart got 5 months in a half way house for pocketing $45k in a stock selling scam and this woman got 3 years for her split of $400K, thus $200K, in a computer scam to be spent in both a federal and state prison. One gets to be the happy homemaker and the other one goes to the trash heap of life. Guess Martha knew someone.

“ Guess Martha knew someone.”
Martha did little wrong as I understand the situation .
She heard news about a company and bought stock in it.
Martha didn’t use a vet to scam anyone
If you want to complain about uneven sentencing - what about all our politicians in DC who pocketed millions from their stock sales right before covid hit.
Martha Stewart got her time for lying to theFeds. She was never charged with trading violations.
Martha Stewart was never convicted of insider trading. She was acquitted of that charge, and convicted of conspiracy to obstruct an agency proceeding, and lying to the FBI. So if Martha “knew someone” it sure didn’t help.
Which raises my question, when does the FBI go to jail for lying to the American people and conspiring to overthrow our duly elected President? I think maybe they know someone.
