Subject: RE: BS: Is Martha going to Jail?
This is a difficult one to prosecute since it will come down to her word against that of her broker. If the prosecution can get multiple witnesses, they may pursue it, otherwise their case comes down to "if it looks like a fish and smells like a fish ... then it must be a fish" sort of thing. Not the kind of case that wins many convitcions - BUT there are civil proceedings that could be won against her, and cost her very big (remember OJ). This is what is likley to happen to Ms Stewart.
