Batman villain cosplayer and degenerate political slime machine Roger Stone is facing 7 felony counts for his role as a Trump campaign go-between with Russian intelligence in the Russiagate scandal. Stone may feel cocky about beating the charges, but Peter Zeidenberg, a former Federal prosecutor, thinks not:
"As someone who prosecuted Scooter Libby and others on similar charges and defended white-collar cases involving similar charges as those alleged here—false statements, obstruction of justice and witness tampering—my takeaway is that Stone should begin getting his affairs in order. Barring a presidential pardon (always the wild-card possibility with a POTUS like Trump) Stone will be convicted and receive a very substantial prison sentence. This is as close to a slam-dunk case as a prosecutor will ever bring. " (our emphasis)Whether he'll serve that "substantial prison sentence" depends on whether Russian asset and crime family head Donald "Rump" Trump wants to add another article of impeachment, abuse of power, to the growing list. In the meantime, it will be great to see Stone squirm.
