I have the feeling that due to this light sentence it won't be since next week's judge acted in a more professional and fair way in the past with Manafort.

He is a crazy, GOP grand stander who loves attention. Attorneys say he is an arrogant bastard (like the ale).

The system is soo bad! Holding my breath for the next judge! Wonder why the judge had to make a statement about no Russian collusion? This stinks to hi-Heaven

It all depends on your income, color of your skin, language you speak, accent you may have, etc as well as the judges' and juries' income, color of their skin, political affiliation, religion, gender, age, etc. There is no real "blind justice" in the US.
