Thread Name: Martha Stewart found Guilty
Subject: RE: Martha Stewart found Guilty
The charges of insider trading were dropped before the trial, Charley. She wasn't found guilty of that. And the charge that she was somehow tampering with the value of her own stock by protesting her innocence was dropped by the judge.

What's left? Apparently she didn't (or couldn't) take the fifth when answering questions of the investigators. They found her guilty of not cooperating with the investigation.

That's a big difference.
