Lying on a mortgage application is a federal crime punishable by up to 30 years in jail.

Yes that’s the maximum penalty. Now look at the numbers of people that actually get jail time for that…. Hardly anyone. They usually just get fined and zero jail time.

Or the thousands of other people that receive ZERO time and just paid a fine for the exact same thing or much worse

Do you think she/they deserve any punishment if they're found guilty of what they're charged with?

Do you think someone in her position should be held to a higher standard given that her professional credibility is predicated on legal competence?

Do you think our elected officials, who make the laws, have a moral obligation to understand and obey the laws they make?

Yeah I agree, I actually don’t think she’ll do any jail time either. But having a disgraceful downfall like hers sucks bad enough.

No, it doesn’t. She belongs in jail

I’m not saying she doesn’t deserve to serve time; I’m just saying that realistically she probably won’t serve any time. Most likely restitutions and potential disbarment.
