Ok, what the heck is Community Confinement????

8 months stuck with a bunch of city liberals?

“Only thing is, Charlie Trie was guilty.”

So was D’Souza, and he pled guilty

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

When do the liberals ever get sentenced to “diversity training?” They’re the most intolerant aholes I’ve ever met.

therapeutic counseling

So. Thought crime now takes you to therapeutic counseling

[forgotten man]

That sounds like he has to spend eight months living in a skid row halfway house with a bunch of criminal scum bags. That is not much better than jail time.

[nuconvert]

I have no idea what kind of counseling would be related to his crime?

[combat_boots]

Sound’s like a Jack Ryan’s wife payoff to me, circa 2006.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

I hope Dinesh D’Souza’s attorneys are fighting to overturn his conviction.

[ScottinVA]

and directed him to undergo “therapeutic counseling.”

What the feck for??? Speaking out against the regime?

[combat_boots]

Cultural Revolution training, 1960s, under Mao and his ‘young people’ with their screaming and loudspeakers.

[combat_boots]

Yeah. He is to be converted.

[molson209]

He has to attend a Reeducation Camp ?

[CivilWarBrewing]

Time to comprise a list of political prisoners.. Add the guy who made the “Anti-Islam video” that caused Benghazi (yeah right). He was imprisoned for one year ‘for probation violations’.. By the way, why isn’t the media hounding that guy for interviews??????

[nuconvert]

I have NO idea.

[CivilWarBrewing]

He pled guilty. He needs to appeal his sentence, not his conviction.

Lois Lerner’s “rehab” program is known as a “six-figure pension with free lifetime medical care” around these parts.

What the He*L is a ‘”community confinement center?”

seems there are many ‘kinds’ -

1. “Community confinement” means residence in a community treatment center, halfway house, restitution center, mental health facility, alcohol or drug rehabilitation center, or other community facility; and participation in gainful employment, employment search efforts, community service, vocational training, treatment, educational programs, or similar facility-approved programs during non-residential hours.

Maybe his lawyer can have it designated to ‘home confinement’ - you know, like they did that other ‘dangerous criminal’ Martha Stewart/

How long before they have designated prisons for the”politically un-correct”?

D’Souza and his allies did a good job of making him a tar baby to the Obama regime.

Good news! So he spends 8 months in a half way house and spends him time writing.

I tried to find out more about the divorce. I can't find any mention of the ex-wife’s claim. He evidently was seeing another woman before the divorce, but that doesn't prove her charges one way or the other. They have one daughter. You would think she wouldn't want to make such a public claim for the sake of her daughter. Most people try not to wash their dirty linen in public when children are involved.

The ex-wife obviously wanted him to serve time in prison. Sounds like she is out for blood. I wonder if she was paid to submit her letter to the court.

“For the first eight months of his probation term, D’Souza will have to live in a “community confinement center” in San Diego, ordered Judge Richard Berman, who also fined D’Souza $30,000 and directed him to undergo “therapeutic counseling.” D’Souza will also have to perform one day per week of community service during his probation term.”

And Lois Lerner? Most likely not even a conviction.
