"My understanding is that 47 months was a very light sentence. I haven't checked into the facts on the matter yet, but I guess he was expected to get more like 20 years."
FUUUUuuuuuuuCk! That's harsh. Here, people do less for murder , rape, and for molesting children. We have no death penalty, and no sentences without the possibility of parole. However, some especially heinous offenders are never released.
I'm basing my comments on what I' was told by a friend I had who had done 12 months for breaking (burglary) in our 165 year old State prison. I suspect Manafort would serve his time in a minimum security prison.(?)
Is there any possibility of a presidential pardon? I was thinking of just before Donald leaves office. I guess that might be a bit too humane for Donald.
