"I also predict that only minor probation will get handed out for the counts on which you can gain a conviction."

Felony obstruction means he won't be voting in most states for the rest of his life, nor will be be allowed to ever purchase or own a firearm. I think that fairly major.

There were two charges with a max of 5 years -- convicted on 1.

There were two charges with a max of 20 years. Convicted on one.

Hardly conviction on "none of the major charges."

The actual sentence depends on the "guidelines," which are very complicated, and are lower if you have no criminal record, but are usually somewhat proportional to the max. Then the judge now has a good bit more discretion than a few years ago, but still usually somewhere in the guideline range. We'll see.

Major to you & me, sure. 'Major' to a liberal piece of sh- college student? I'm not so sure.

It would probably never occur to this twerp to purchase a handgun. If he really needed one, he'd just disregard the law, as rules are for chumps & for controlling conservatives.

As a politician's kid he might be more disturbed about losing his voting rights. But I'm confident that he will get a midnight pardon from the outgoing Obama administration so that his full citizenship rights will be restored. These are the kinds of people that petition for pardons, and have the 'friends' to see that it gets granted.

“Felony obstruction means he won’t be voting in most states for the rest of his life...”

Except in the top 10 RAT states, where he’ll vote at least 20 times per election...:(
