Just a sincere heads-up because you are new here.

What about the finish of the Flynn case? What about the finish of the Manafort case?

How can this be done? I just cant imagine this is really done.

He is almost as slimy as El Chapo but not nearly as smart, despite thinking he is a rocket scientist.

"Is he more corrupt or more stupid?" while discussing Stone's future just now. I vote for "more stupid".

....thinks that he can get away with anything....

Probably because most of his life he has gotten away with anything he did without any consequences.

Time for that to change....

Unless our entire federal government is colluding with MSM to orchestrate dramatic reality TV, your sincere hope will almost certainly come to fruition. If not, it will be something that silenced the grifter Stone completely.

She only has two choices- put him in jail now or give him ultimatum that if he tries another stunt he goes to jail asap, but she does have grounds now because he signed the pretrial release where it specified penalty of prison time for attempting to intimidate witnesses, jurors or officers of the court.

Hard to predict a judge. But I predict that there is a stern warning, a modification of release terms, and the next time Stone does something stupid THEN the judge puts him in jail.

the wrong judge for his usual, smart-ass, arrogant, dirty and malicious treatment. Just from observing and reading about Judge Amy Berman Jackson I don't think she will have too many qualms about bringing down the hammer hard.
