sent to the Super Max Prison in Colorado.
This is bad as gets.

(6,477 posts)She was young and dumb. That's all the concession she gets. You have to draw a line in the sand, and she was doing a job for which she took an oath to keep secrets, and she did not. She committed a crime.
You are sowing yet another excuse for such cheats. Trump's latest excuse will come to be: "I'm a whistleblower!" He hasn't tried that one, yet.

(17,519 posts)There are different classes of citizens in this country and a different system of justice applies in relation to your position in society. The wealthy and the politically powerful (usually the same) are not subject to the laws of the clerk, firefighter, or plumber.
If you are the CEO of a company that steals a million dollars, your company pays a fine, and you walk away free. If you steal a case of formula to feed your baby, you will be looking at time in the state prison, if you aren't murdered upon arrest. We as a people have not demanded justice; it is our fault.
I doubt that the present criminal justice crisis will change the above.

Treasonous traitorous treacherous Trump.
