A federal judge in New York City just ordered Jacob Wohl to contact every single voter he previously robocalled--estimated to be in excess of 85,000--and tell them that the racist robocalls were false and illegal.

Little shit won't do it.

(7,527 posts)I assume that's not a valid option!
That's why robocalling is done - it's easy to do for the small number of hits.

(3,131 posts)They are facing 24 years. Make that the sentence and make parole contingent on completing the calls.
As others say, the harm is probably already done for this election. Keep them in prison as a warning to other republican frauds.

(3,131 posts)I guess this was the decision that supported the injunction on continuing making the robocalls. Read that earlier today and it was blistering. Not only is there an injunction but they have to report tomorrow on progress on the corrective calls by tomorrow the 30th or face contempt.
That is, this is an injunction in the civil not criminal case.
I stand by the sentiment though. Lock these unamerican rats up for as long as possible.

(14,559 posts)A man slandered another man. The Rabi called him to account and the man asked what he must do to atone. The Rabi said two things; first take a feather pillow to the roof of the Synagogue and scatter the feathers to the wind. The man did as bid and then asked what second thing he must do.
Now, go and collect all the feathers . . .

Kirk: There's something I want to show you.
(shows him tribbles scattered throughout the station bar)
Kirk: You know what the penalty is for transporting an animal proven harmful to human life?
Cyrano Jones: Captain, one little tribble isn't harmful. Captain, you wouldn't do a thing like that to me, now would you? (worried) Would you?
Spock: The penalty is twenty years in a rehabilitation colony.
Jones: (over-the-top cheerfully) Captain Kirk. Friend, friend Kirk! Surely we can come to some sort of mutual understanding. After all, my tribbles did put you wise to the poisoned grain, and they did help you to find the Klingon agent! Saved a lot of lives that way!
Kirk: There is one thing you can do.
Jones: (hopeful) Yes?
Kirk: Pick up every tribble on the space station. If you do that, I'll speak to Mister Lurry about returning your spaceship.
Jones: It would take years.
Spock: Seventeen point nine, to be exact.
Jones: (depressed) Seventeen point nine years.
Kirk: Consider it job security.
Jones: Captain, you're a hard man.
(Kirk and Spock take him by the arms)
Jones: All right! All right!
Kirk: You'll do it?
Spock: He'll do it.
Jones: (defeated) I'll do it.
