"Why Did Obama Administration Ask Judge To Increase Don Siegelman's Prison Sentence?"
According to author Andrew Kreig, Siegelman, who was facing a 7 year prison sentence, is now serving a 20 year sentence,
"one that Obama and (former) Attorney General Eric Holder pushed for.
In 2009, the Obama Justice Department requested that Judge Fuller sentence Siegelman to 20 more years in prison when his appeals are finished."
