My poor Martha!! (http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&e=1&u=/ap/20040716/ap_on_bi_ge/martha_stewart)
Martha Stewart was sentenced Friday to five months in prison and five months of home confinement for lying about a stock sale.
Just before her sentence was pronounced, Stewart asked the judge to "remember all the good I have done."
"Today is a shameful today. It's shameful for me, for my family and for my company," she said.
U.S. District Court Judge Miriam Goldman Cedarbaum noted that she had sentenced Stewart on the bottom of the confinement range.

What is the good stuff she did?
5 months of home confinement seems like a lenient "penalty"
Hell, I haven't left my house since summer started.

Five months of home confinement and five months jail sentence.

When she walked out of the courtroom and when everyone got quiet so she could say whatever it was she said before running through the media, I would have yelled "You suck!' Then I would have run away. The perfect crime.

Cmon now guys, I don't think she was about person. And I'm also running out of pillow fabric idea *jk*
I've got one for you, take your old underwear, cut them into squares, and sew them together for a wonderful throw that's both comfortable and a great conversation starter.

Oh man, the blasphemy.
I am an unabashed Martha fan and loyal supporter. Once, when I was poor and living in New York and needed a fleece blanket, I took the subway to Astor Place to go to the only KMart in the city and plunked down $40 for the best fleece blanket I've ever owned in my life. It now adorns the couch in my family room.
Martha didn't even do anything. The two people who condemned her (as it were) were proven to have been lying on the stand. I have faith in the appeals process.

Convicted about lying about charges that she wasn't charged with.

Yep. Kill her. She violated Geneva by destroying the eyes of her brainwashed viewers for all of that time.

Regardless of whether she is guilty or innocent, (i believe guilty) This was what, a fifty thousand dollar or so transaction, something like less than .1% of her net worth, retarded.

Why would a woman worth something like a billion dollars go to prison over 50 grand. Well, no one ever said she was very smart. :lol:

Personally the whole case was retarded IMHO... Insider trading happens a lot, very very often in fact. As for lying under oath... well... I'm not sure wether she did, but I am sure that if she did 5 months in a low sec. prison will do her well; It'll give her time to catch up on her knitting, or something...
