Martha Stewart to Hunter, huh?

After a highly publicized 2004 six-week jury trial, Stewart was found
<><>guilty of felony charges of conspiracy to obstruct,
<><>guilty of obstruction of an agency proceeding,
<><>of making false statements to federal investigators
<><>sentenced to a five-month term in a federal correctional facility
<><>had a two-year period of supervised release
<><> five months of electronic monitoring.
<><>paid a fine of $30,000.

In August 2006, the SEC announced that it had agreed to settle the related civil case against Stewart. Under the settlement, Stewart agreed to
<><>disgorge $58,062 (including interest from the losses she avoided),
<><>a civil penalty of three times the loss avoided, or $137,019.
<><>a five-year ban from serving as a director, CEO, CFO, or any other officer role responsible for preparing, auditing, or disclosing financial results of any public company..

In June 2008, the UK Border Agency refused to grant her a visa to enter the United Kingdom because of her criminal conviction for obstructing justice. She had been planning to speak at the Royal Academy on fashion and leisure industry matters.

BTW, Martha sold stock using inside info....something Pelosi has done for years.

Nonprofit org Marco Polo put emails from Hunter’s laptop online
and wrote a 630-page report summarizing its contents.

<><>MP famously said that judges are not obligated to accept plea deals
even if prosecutors and the defendant agree on them.
<><>that the plea deal, if accepted, makes a mockery of the phrase ‘slap on the wrist,’
<><>it will also send a sobering message that nepotism and proximity to political power determines outcomes in our criminal justice system.

MP found evidence for, at the very least, 459 violations of
state and federal laws and regulations on Hunter’s device as follows:
<><>140 business-related crimes,
<><>191 sex-related crimes,
<><>128 drug-related crimes.

These instances of criminal wrongdoing are supported by primary source evidence: emails, photos, videos, text messages, audio files, et al.


The plea deal for consideration is so meager that the phrase ‘limited hangout’ does not describe the situation.”

A “limited hangout” is a public relations technique in which someone who wants to cover up something major admits to a very small portion in order to claim that the issue has been put to rest.

If the sweetheart deal had gone through it would be the last straw ... no one would believe the BS about the United States having ‘justice’ for all.

The Biden’s and democrat filth have gotten enough passes from the corrupt press, FBI, DOJ, and deep state traitors to almost destroy our justice system. One more silly vile pass and it would be over.
