Is she going to actually have to serve the time?
Or will she somehow avoid or get out of it due to 'old conservative republican white Karen lady privilege'?
After watching the sentencing, she has been sent to county jail for now. Her lawyer motioned to have her released on bond while they appeal, but the judge denied that. They are going to appeal, who knows what will happen there,but she is in county jail right this moment.
If nothing changes, and I understood sentencing correctly, she will remain in county jail for six months then get transferred to federal prison for the remainder of her sentence.
This is consistent with my observation of the events. One additional point, the judge presumed that she would be out before the end of the 9 years because of good behavior.
Federal? I think it's state prison for state crimes isn't it? I sure hope she serves her sentence in the worst state prison in CO.
I'm actually not sure of he said state or federal prison. I thought he said federal. I expect you're right, though, that it is county jail, then state prison.
Probably will get pardoned if trump wins this fall...
Actually she can’t be presidents can only pardon federal offenses and her sentence is due to state offenses so only the Colorado governed can pardon her I think— not that I think they would or should
