Martha Stewart Guilty on All Charges
Another victory in the war on terror:Martha Stewart was convicted Friday of obstructing justice and lying to the government about a suspicious stock sale, a devastating verdict that probably means prison time for the homemaking and publishing icon. Sheâll have a very tastefully decorated cell. The verdict came on the third day of deliberations in the case. The jury of eight women and four men deliberated three days before convicting Stewart of all counts against her. The charges carry up to 20 years in prison, but Stewart will most certainly get much less than that under federal sentencing guidelines. Her ex-stockbroker Peter Bacanovich, 41, was convicted on all but one count against him, making a false statement. Both will be sentenced on June 17. Itâs Miller Time! Posted by: Steve 2004-03-05 |
