The problem is I suspect she will find her time in a women’s prison way to mush to her liking. ;-)

Well, from the looks of her....make sure the gallows is reinforced and use heavy-duty rope.

Finally. But of course she’s not in jail yet, just ordered to prison.

“Definatly guilty.”

INCREDIBLY GUILTY.

But I admit I’m shocked. I thought she’d essentially beaten the rap.
Maybe a 2-3 years ago.

I vote short drop hanging, for her and many others who should be convicted of treason in the coming years. Let’s start with the ones who forced banks to make irresponsible loans.

'Definitely guilty."

Look at the size of those fingers. She'll be very popular in women's prison. It's like she's got a bunch of bananas on each hand.

With her age and appearance the most likely action she will get is a beat down.
