The NY Daily News reports that disbarred "radical lawyer Lynne Stewart is going to jail - maybe for a lot longer than she thought. A federal appeals court Tuesday upheld her conviction for smuggling messages to her jailed terrorist client, and said she deserves more than the 28 months she got because she may have lied at her trial. Stewart, 70, is to surrender to U.S. Marshals immediately. The Brooklyn resident has been free on bail since 2006."
Andy McCarthy, who prosecuted Omar Abdul Rahman (aka "the Blind Sheikh") and faced off against Stewart in the courtroom, explains the issue of sentencing here: http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=YTMyOGQzNmRjM2EzZDBmMTE3ZjZiYjYwYmFlNGFlMDI.
