I don't disagree with you that RS is creepy and probably a narcissistic guy. But I don't think this is a reason for a conviction. The only reason RS was even targeted was because of the Political COUP underway to get TRUMP...RS was collateral damage.

Give Stone a new trial....It's pretty easy really, as what he was convicted of are simple charges....he did them or he didn't.  If Trump gets involved the second time, it's just another nail in the proverbial political career coffin.

Seems to me the once stellar GOP just handed the keys to the kingdom to Trump to do exactly that sort of thing you just accused the FBI and DOJ of doing.  As always, just my opinion.

 

GO RV, then BV

 

Has the current DOJ under Barr been doing this?.......What about Trump?......has he instructed Barr to pursue this direction....?

 

How about the Obama DOJ.....any record there of corruption?......any FISA issues....any official FBI doc's altered.......any plots to assure a candidate wouldn't be elected......and would be removed if elected.....

 

The left is so worried about cleaning up the Trump house....but what will they replace it with.....will it be an up grade?.......not as it stands today.....     CL

Absolutely.....Retry Flynn as well......I would love to see the Trump tweet storm that brings to a "fair and balanced" world.  And Gen. Flynn will ultimately end up the goat because Trump won't be able to stifle himself from tweeting out.

Flynn is innocent.....so what does it matter what Trump tweets?......why do you feel the need to bring Trump into most of your posts?......are you experiencing that Trump derangement syndrome?

No reason to retry Flynn.

No reason to retry Flynn

 

 

Continued government misconduct and denials of accountability by the worst offenders & #VanGrack himself who has suppressed evidence favorable to

@GenFlynn

from the beginning #DOJ #FBICorruption

 

 

This is from his attorney Sidney Powell. She is a former federal prosecutor. She has presented evidence to the court of government misconduct. It up to the judge to decide if his case will be thrown out.

As opposed to Trump Disciple Syndrome....perhaps.  Donald is brought up by for the same reason people such as yourself always come to his rescue.....He is the head of the snake.

 

My original post concerning a new trial for Flynn was simply pointing out that Trump's involvement only muddies the waters of judicial fairness....Donald would be doing Gen Flynn a huge favor by remaining silent and letting the judicial system work as it was designed.

Think about this one.....75 + first time offender was to get 7-9 years.....and much of that for offending the court.....

 

Anthony Weiner ....4 term Congressman....2nd time offender....was sentenced to 21 months for sending perverted pictures of himself to a minor....yes....a felony.....

He served 15 months....

 

Average length of prison time for Rape.......2.8 years.....

 

Stone is a bit odd to say the least....but I think the court and prosecution exposed themselves..(no pun intended) with the suggestion of a 7-9 year penaly for Stone.

Trump adviser Roger Stone loses bid to delay sentencing hearing

By Sarah N. Lynch and Jan Wolfe

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Roger Stone, a longtime friend of President Donald Trump, lost his bid to delay his sentencing, a federal judge said on Tuesday.

Stone is due to be sentenced on Thursday after he was found guilty in November of seven counts of lying to Congress, obstruction and witness tampering.

A lawyer for Stone on Tuesday argued that Thursday's sentencing hearing should be postponed until after U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson rules on a request he made for a new trial.

Jackson rejected the proposed delay during a short conference call with lawyers on Tuesday, saying Stone's proposal would not be prudent and is not required by law.

The judge said the longtime Republican operative would not need to begin serving his sentence until she rules on his request for a new trial.

Stone's sentencing on Thursday is expected to draw widespread interest, after senior officials at the Justice Department last week pulled back on an earlier sentencing recommendation by career prosecutors to keep Stone's prison term within the U.S. sentencing guidelines of seven to nine years.

The intervention by Attorney General William Barr prompted all four career prosecutors who tried the case to withdraw, with one of them resigning from the department entirely.

In the new sentencing memo, the department said it viewed a sentence of between seven and nine years as excessive, but left it to the judge's discretion what prison term would be appropriate.

Since then, Trump has used Twitter to attack the four prosecutors, as well as Jackson, who previously oversaw cases involving Trump's other political allies including former campaign chairman Paul Manafort.

Jackson did not comment during Tuesday's 15-minute conference call on the prosecutor withdrawals or the political furor over Stone's case.

Trump threatens to sue his investigators and demands Roger Stone case be 'thrown out'

John T Bennett

The IndependentFebruary 18, 2020, 9:10 AM EST

 

 

Scroll back up to restore default view.

 

Donald Trump is threatening to drop a string of lawsuits against those involved in investigations into his 2016 campaign and presidency, yet again weighing in on a federal criminal case as he thumbs his nose at concerns he is politicizing the Justice Department.

The president used several Tuesday morning tweets to suggest the case of his convicted friend and former adviser Roger Stone -- and any other one stemming from probes of all things Trump -- should be "thrown out." The judge in Mr Stone's case, Amy Berman Jackson, has set a Tuesday teleconference hearing with the Stone camp and federal prosecutors to discuss the status of his case.

That set off a firestorm last week when Mr Trump wielded the power of his office post-Senate acquittal in a more muscular way by tweeting that the Justice Department should come down from a planned nine-year sentencing recommendation for Mr Stone on counts of lying to Congress and obstructing justice.

But, in Mr Trump's telling, his longtime friend should soon be a free man.

He called the prosecutors in Mr Stone's case "Mueller prosecutors," referring to the Russia election meddling probe led by former FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III. That investigation concluded with Mr Mueller stopping shy of recommending Mr Trump broke any laws, but saying if wrongdoing had not occured his final report would have said so; it did not. (That final summary also stated Mr Mueller and his team found no direct cooperation between Mr Trump's 2016 campaign and Russians.)

But that did not stop the president on Tuesday morning from contending that "the whole Mueller investigation was illegally set up based on a phony and now fully discredited Fake Dossier, lying and forging documents to the FISA Court, and many other things."

He did not provide supporting evidence as he added his view that the Mueller probe was a "fraudulent investigation" and "badly tainted," calling for it anything related to it to be "thrown out."

"The whole deal was a total SCAM. If I wasn't President, I'd be suing everyone all over the place..." Mr Trump claimed, before adding this threat: "....BUT MAYBE I STILL WILL. WITCH HUNT!"

But Democrats see the situation differently.

"Trump abused his power to coerce Ukraine into announcing investigations for his personal benefit by freezing military aid," House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff of California tweeted last week.

Mr Schiff and other Democrats also have panned Attorney General William Barr, who stepped in to back his department away from the nine-year sentencing recommendation after Mr Trump's tweet. (Mr Barr contends he thought there was an internal agreement within the agency to offer Ms Jackson options for a more "flexible" sentence for Mr Stone.)

"Barr admits he intervened in the sentencing of a man who lied to Congress to cover up for the President," Mr Schiff tweeted. "He's only upset that Trump's tweets made the political nature of his intervention obvious. Barr fools no one. He's a witting accomplice to Trump's attack on the rule of law.
