Her sister didn’t get any either. Just fines of $750. It seems as though the trick being used by offenders like these is to simply plead guilty. Nada Prouty, the agent who spied for Hezbollah, has gotten off thanks to a judge who was apparently appoi….

There was no trial. She pleaded guilty through a plea agreement with the feds.

That’s still a trial, it’s just one where the fact-finding side is abbreviated because the defendant agrees to the facts and there’s no need to call witnesses.

No. The FBI and CIA wanted this to go away because they F….d up, again.

Cohn signed an order to deport Prouty but simultaneously signed a second order withholding the deportation. She will be able to stay in the U.S. but not work or travel outside the country without special permission.

Thus begins an entirely new level of illegal immigration pandering…a court order to NOT return to your country of citizenship.

Exit question: Why didn’t the feds demand a jury trial instead of a bench trial?

Allah,
There was no trial. She pleaded guilty through a plea agreement with the feds. Either way, the federal judge would do the sentencing. And Avern Cohn is the worst. VERY liberal, allowed Muslim illegal aliens who paid off an INS inspector to come back to the U.S. after they were already deported, etc. I’ve written a lot about this creep, Cohn, here and here.

Even if he were to die tomorrow, Carter’s damage would still leave us vulnerable for God knows how long. Is there no aspect of policy, foreign or domestic, that Carter can’t screw up?

But hey, Obama ‘08, for the good of the conservative movement.

A federal judge lavished praise Tuesday on an illegal alien who infiltrated the FBI and the CIA before her fraudulent marriage was discovered.

U.S. District Judge Avern Cohn revoked the citizenship of Nada Nadim Prouty and fined her $750. He criticized the government for the way it publicized Prouty’s case and the media for the way they reported it.
…
Prouty’s only real crime, Cohn said, was a sham marriage when she was 19 years old. It’s understandable she did not want to return to war-torn Lebanon at the time, he said.

What an ass. It’s understandable that some poor person might want to steal cars and sell them for the money, too, but that hardly makes the action praiseworthy or excusable. What do these liberal jurists use for brains, anyway? ‘Tater Tots?

Even if he were to die tomorrow, Carter’s damage would still leave us vulnerable for God knows how long. Is there no aspect of policy, foreign or domestic, that Carter can’t screw up?
