A 70-year-old civil rights lawyer was sentenced Thursday to 10 years in prison in a terrorism case by a judge who boosted her original sentence by nearly eight years after concluding she lied to a jury and lacked remorse.
"I'm somewhat stunned," Lynne Stewart told U.S. District Judge John G. Koeltl after he announced the sentence for her conviction for letting a jailed Egyptian sheik communicate with his radical followers despite restrictions in place to prevent it.
The sentence, nearly four times longer than the two-year, four-month sentence she originally received in 2006, left Stewart sobbing in her prison uniform after Koeltl described his reasons for increasing the prison time significantly.
An appeals court had ordered a new sentencing, saying the terrorism component of the case needed to be considered, along with whether she committed perjury at her trial. The court said it had "serious doubts" whether her original sentence was reasonable.
The judge said public comments Stewart made after her first sentencing showed him that the "original sentence was not sufficient." He said she showed "a lack of remorse for conduct that was both illegal and potentially lethal."
Outside court after her original sentence, Stewart said she could do the prison time standing on her head.

Sorry, but the bitch needs to assume room temperature behind bars. Preferably in a female version of a Supermax.

I read that whole DUmp thread and that EFerrari sure is one DUmb, stupid, hardheaded bitch with a capital "B". You can slap her with the facts. You can beat her nearly to death with the facts. You can smother her stupid ass with the facts and she still won't accept the facts as fact.
:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:...and after all that I bet she claims, as do all the DUmmies, to be openminded and very reasonable.
Level headed DUmmie: One who has been hit hard on top of the head with a 2"x12".

59. She broke the law
providing assistance for a illegally detained person, a prisoner in an illegal war, started by a lying Imperial government. The UN should step in and release her.
Now wouldn't that be interesting?

And, quite feasibly permitted to occur, under the enlightened leadership of the current Regime.

Yeah, I too saw that.
The number #03 position among the top ten 10 primitives isn't good enough for Doug's stupid ex-wife; at that particular campfire, she's shooting for the #01 position, the top.

Wiping the Smirk off Stewart’s Face
Every now and then, a smug, gloating know-it-all unexpectedly comes face-to-face with painful reality, causing his or her seemingly permanent smirk to be wiped away in a mere instant. For the self-proclaimed “radical human rights attorney†Lynne Stewart, such a day came last Thursday, when she learned, to her astonishment, that the length of the prison sentence she already has been serving will be more than quadrupled.
The roots of Stewart’s imprisonment date back at least to the year 2000, when she illegally smuggled messages from her incarcerated client, the Muslim terrorist sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, to his violent devotees in his native Egypt.

I have been following this fugly scrunt's legacy long before I joined C.C. and C.U.
Stewart is just another old, dried up, stretched out 60's hippie America-hating activist slut with a bong resign soaked brain.
She 'obtained' a law degree, solely due to political correctness in the higher educational system, then used that falsely awarded degree to further her hate America agenda.
Guess what? The cocky-bitch got caught and now will do some hard time for it.
At 70 years of age, with a 10 year sentence, she will serve at least five years of that locked in a cage like the animal she is - as a prison 'bitch'.
Show us your 'head stand' abilities now scrunt!
