We've been over this before, dopey. There need not be any sort of quid pro quo for insider trading to have occured. If it can be shown that she sold the stock based on information gleaned form inside sources, she's cooked.

Hey dopey, you'll really consider yourself a dope when Martha nevers gets indicted for insider trading.

Just having insider information when selling stock does not constitue a crime. If that were so, it would be a crime whenever an executive sold own company stock.

It's only a crime when the sale damages the company or when made with knowledge of an upcoming large stock price drop
