Going to prison for 7 years, at 69 years of age. For a crook that probably doesn’t even know her name. smh. The charge should be treason, that’s what she did.
Legally speaking, no. She committed sedition. There were no foreign state actors in her crimes, treason cannot be the charge as it would end in mistrial.
Her sentence is actually 9 years
