Prosecutors requested the judge overseeing ex-Donald Trump adviser Steve Bannon's criminal contempt of Congress case to order he begin his four-month prison sentence.
My dad got sentenced to jail for 4 months and he asked the judge if he could do it starting November because his job was seasonal and the judge said sure, gave him an exact date.
Its weird, but for once this isn’t a “rich people ignore the rules everyone else has to follow” thing.
This is different because it wasn’t like his jail time was delayed at sentencing.
Instead, unlike standard sentencing, he was allowed to ignore the sentencing until AFTER his appeals.
You know how every criminal in prison spends their free time in prison working on appeals? They would all be free if the US justice system treated them like Steve Bannon.
Reminds me of that Dave Chappelle skit where the drug dealer is prosecuted like a CEO and vice versa. What a fuckery to end up living through the skit.
Its bizarre shit. Imagine being found guilty and sentenced to prison, but then you just leave the courtroom and go home
That’s normal.

Oh. Well never mind then, the rich suck here too
Happens all the time, especially if the defendant isn’t considered a flight risk.
Meth head and his wife had a sign in the yard for 6-weeks, “Going to prison, must sell everything.” And boy did they. Even the trailer floorboards.

Cockroaches come and go as they please.
