Urooj Rahman had every reason to believe that she wouldn't even get the fifteen months. The Free Beacon notes that she and "her accomplice, Colinford Mattis, leveraged their connections to top universities, white-shoe law firms, and the Obama administration, to win sympathy from liberal elites. They were the subjects of glowing profiles in national media during their prosecution, and struck a sweetheart deal with the Biden Justice Department, which, in a rare move, intervened to ask the court to go easy on them after the Trump administration had pressed for an aggressive prosecution."

U.S. District Judge Brian Cogan praised her for choosing a career in public interest law to fight against social injustices.

'You're a remarkable person who did a terrible thing on one night,' Cogan said.

She might spend all of 6 months in jail....maybe even less.

Thankfully, they were both disbarred so they lost their career.

I would not count on that sticking.

Lawyers who are disbarred can petition for reinstatement.

That's true, but as an attorney, I have a hard time imagining a bar panel deciding they deserve reinstatement. The folks who serve on those panels are serious about ethics. What these two losers did and said is a bridge too far. I hope.

Prisons are full of people who did a terrible thing one night.

Exactly.

That was a ridiculous statement by the judge. Maybe they have done many terrible things but only got caught once.

Just one more example of money talking louder than most things. I assume they aren't white, otherwise this would be a classic example of systemic racism.
