Before hearing her sentence, Urooj Rahman asked a judge to spare her prison time and give her a 'second chance' to redeem herself for what she called a momentary lapse of judgement.

Personally, I think 15 years would've been more appropriate than 15 months but hey! we are talking New York City here.
They aren't sorry they did that shit, they're sorry they got busted and screwed up their careers. Such as they were.

ReplyDeleteBaby steps.
Yup,, there's law for them and then there's law for the rest of us.
Delete15 years would be appropriate considering she is an "attorney" and should know and respect the FN law!
ReplyDeleteConsider also that they were both permanently disbarred and can no longer work as lawyers. That's 3 years of time plus a couple hundred grand down the ol' shit hole.
ReplyDeleteAnd we're going to be stuck paying their student loans if Biden has his way.
DeleteThey were also disbarred and have huge student loans. It is tough getting a good paying job as a felon.
ReplyDeleteNYC doesn't want to do anything to tarnish the "brand" that Eric Adams claims it has.

Of course they don't think actions have consequences. How do you think they make a living? Making consequences go away.
ReplyDelete15 mos in NYC is like a life sentence.

Hopefully they had to pay full restitution for the public property along with all court costs, etc. 15 months seems like a measured sentence; not harsh, but not soft either. 18-24 months was recommended for pleading guilty and both have been disbarred. Losing one's law license and being banned from practicing law is pretty hard on the pocket book.
ReplyDeleteBeing Marxist communists, they must understand that their punishment is for our collective good as well as theirs. hehe...
