Was the deal because she also did so much "good" that she deserved the mercy of a shorter prison sentence, because her RED or BLUE(?) lawyers had made more money than that $15K she was guilty of taking for her votes, or because there's always a bigger RED fish for an excuse of temptation and behavior?

Votes are precious in and out of government--not that RED Cincinnati cares much about the verdicts of trials - Shame on a hand-slap plea deal - She disgraced herself and abused her office and her community - LOCK HER UP!
