(Reuters) - Lawyers for former U.S. national security adviser Michael Flynn accused the federal government of stalling their efforts to defend him, and said the former top aide to Donald Trump is not ready to be sentenced for lying about his discussions with a Russian ambassador.
Flynns lawyers lodged their objections to the governments conduct in a joint status report filed on Friday with the Washington, D.C., federal court.
Lawyers for the government countered that Flynn is ready for sentencing, perhaps as soon as Oct. 21. Both sides agreed that Flynns cooperation with various government probes is finished.
Flynn pleaded guilty in December 2017 to lying to the FBI about his conversations the prior December with Sergey Kislyak, who was Russias ambassador to the United States, about U.S. sanctions imposed on Moscow by President Barack Obama.

I will enjoy seeing him frog marched off to club fed. Whatever sentence he gets it will not be enough.
