Stone is such a smart a**.. Him doing the perp walk with handcuffs would have been icing on the cake.

Stone will not be going to prison today. The judge deferred the start of his sentence until she rules on defense efforts to toss trial. If their objections have to do with jurors, it likely won't fly. She spoke highly of jurors service.

That works out to 3 years and four months in prison. He also sentenced to two years of supervised release upon leaving prison.

That came on Count 1. He got concurrent sentences of 18 months on counts 2-6 and count 7.

BREAKING --> Roger Stone, political operative and longtime confidant of President Trump, is sentenced to 40 months in prison by a federal judge who was particularly harsh about his lies to Congress, witness tampering, obstruction.

1. This means the Con can't parson him for now

Good

[greenjar_01]

4. Sure he can. He can pardon him immediately

[gratuitous]

5. I think Trump can pardon Stone anytime it pleases him

Remember, Gerald Ford issued an unconditional, blanket pardon to Richard Nixon for anything Nixon might have done while president, whether charges were brought or not.

[malaise]

6. You're right

Damn

[AJT]

2. Sounds like she caved.

There is no longer a justice system.

[Poiuyt]

7. I agree

[FBaggins]

8. Not necessarily

It isn't unusual for judges to disagree with the prosecution's sentencing recommendations.

The defense recommended a suspended sentence. She didn't agree with that either.

[shanti]

11. That, and

the rescheduling of the judges "emergency meeting". It is worrisome.

3. Thanks, river, was trying to find this info

“Need somethin’?

CALL DU!!”

9. the tweeter followed the court session today. Many good comments he posted from the judge

[kacekwl]

10. So he'll be on Hamity tonight and at

trumps KKK rally.

[old guy]

12. Sadly, this is a huge win for tRump and repubs in general.

The justice system is now a just us system.

[Grasswire2]

13. If Stone is pardoned, he can be made to testify against Trump.

That's my understanding.

[Windy City Charlie]

14. In other words...

he'll never see prison. That's why he was smirking coming out of the courthouse. You and I would never get that benefit of the doubt.
