OP
bearsfootball516
(6,691 posts)1. Basically, he'll be in jail for about 7 1/2 years.
mucifer
(25,601 posts)2. 7 years all together
90 months. Plus he may face state charges.
Sanity Claws
(22,365 posts)3. So 43 additional months
Combined with the other sentence, a grand total of 90 months or 7.5 years.
stopbush
(24,788 posts)4. So an additional 3.5 years, minus the 9 months already served.
Equals 6 years, 9 months total for both trials combined.
triron
(22,240 posts)6. I don't think he gets the 9 months twice.
stopbush
(24,788 posts)9. The legal eagles on MSNBC are now saying it adds up to 6 years, 9 months.
watoos
(7,142 posts)7. I said 6 years,
was hoping it would be in addition to the 47 months.
Lots of pressure on that judge from the right.
Pantagruel
(2,580 posts)8. Not nearly enough
In fact, since he didn't roll over on Trump and the Russians he probably will survive prison. He made the right choice to minimize the sentence and guarantee survivability.
KatyMan
(4,333 posts)10. Crime obviously pays
If you're a rich white guy. 7 years in prison is no cakewalk, I know, but a traitor to this country like him shouldn't ever see the light of day again and all of his assets should be seized.
