I think part of the reason I can't stand Butts is because I know him. Not Him, but him. We all served with that guy. We all knew that guy in HS. We all took classes with him in college. Like, he just looks like he smells skeevy.

Popehat thought that she'd not be going full sentence anyway even before El Presidente jumped in. So probably the plan all along so spiteful sentencing is not a great idea when there are going to be multiple appeals flying.

Not that any of it matters in the end because there is a 1000% chance that Donny is going to pardon him the second he's sentenced.

I think any real spicy Pardons will wait on the election. Stone will have to suck it up for a few months unless he gets a new trial.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:How does any self-respecting judge trying a case while being actively interfered with by the president not go for the maximum allowable sentence? At a certain point it's just a question of judicial independence. There were no similar cases as a sentencing cross-reference. Stone's poo poo was different than basically any other case, as it's a weirdo blend of lying to Congress, plus threats, and other stuff. Usually, the congressional lies are only worth a few months. The feds were stretching in the initial 7-9 year recommendation, but they were stretching in a legitimate way. As Judge ABJ basically said, her sentence is neutral to everything going on around her, as that's the deal with being a judge. The general guess is that she used the Cohen case as a guidepost - Michael Cohen got a bit less time. Edit: pretty much what the below says. Popehat guessed it would be a 24-36 sentence and it was 40, so not that far off. facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 20:49 on Feb 20, 2020 |

A big escalator in the original 7-9 recommendation was because of Stone's witness tampering. Seven to nine was the appropriate sentence per the guidelines for Stone's convictions and exacerbating circumstances. The judge made clear to point out in sentencing that Stone didn't misspeak. He deliberately lied and then tried to cover up those lies via various forms of obstruction, further lies, and witness tampering. These lies weren't to a hostile audience. They were to the Republican controlled house intelligence committee under Devin Nunes. He lied because his options were to either plead the fifth and potentially incriminate himself and the president or lie. He opted to lie. He was guilty as could loving be, and had no applicable mitigation. Three and a third years for something that usually gets a few months is probably the right call regardless of the guidelines, though.

I've seen some arguments on Twitter that the shorter sentence is also less likely to be pardoned precisely because of its brevity, but those are predicated on feelings of shame or the threat of potential consequences that the administration seems to have transcended long ago.

Federal sentences within the guidelines are presumptively appropriate so not sure on what grounds going higher in the range would provide.

“Weaponized crop duster” reminds me of farting into a fan that was blowing on a useless SGM (I know, redundant) in Afghanistan. I had just arrived and my bowels were in a twist, and the mix was so foul that even in the desert he would turn to the guy next to him and ask if that SFC had just poo poo his pants again 😂
