A disgraced Democrat state senator dodged jail thanks to a plea deal over a $600,000 fraud which saw her spend federal cash on her wedding, honeymoon—and subsequent divorce. Katrina Robinson, 41, struck the plea deal Friday which saw her admit just two of the 20 counts she was facing, with a value of $3,400. Sentencing guidelines could have seen the former Tennessee lawmaker face up to 10 months in prison for those counts. But US District Judge Sheryl H Lipman decided to let Robinson off with a slap on the wrist, and sentenced her to just a year of probation after claiming that the swindler had suffered enough already.

Will the government reimburse her for her attorney fees? It seems unjust that she should have to pay for defending against white women’s law (white men have already repudiated those laws- except for formerly white men who now identify as white women).

USA, with Liberty and Justice for none. We let this happen to our great country, on our watch, without so much as a fight. I’m ashamed of this woman, I’m ashamed of this kangaroo court, and I’m ashamed of myself for not defending what we had.

Is she a real woman, by birth that is? She looks like a 60's British rock star.

"..disgraced Democrat .."
That is a redundant phrase if there ever was one.
They are all a disgrace.

Equity justice. No fines? No time? No paying back the $600K. What a deal? BTW, the judge is a BHO appointee. So her judgement shouldn't be a surprise.

Did she pay her "fair share" of Federal taxes (no state income tax in TN) on all of this income? Has IRS looked into it? DOJ? I'm betting no tax was ever paid and she beat the rap because she is perchance a black person??

The swindler had suffered enough already?
How about the swindlees? Does their suffering count at all?
No - - I guess not.

In today's America there is no longer a "Rule of LAW" except for conservatives (or trespassers, or "domestic terrorists" with the "wrong" political opinions). If ALL essential workers simply went on strike indefinitely, this crap would be over TOMORROW. But sheep are sheep, which is exactly what Alinsky-ites are counting on. Otherwise the Laptop-from-Hell would already have totally disqualified the "Sniffer" from public office. The Sheep just went along with the media lies and censorship ... as America goes down the drain of history, comrade. Say "Nah!" or say "Baa."

Laws are just general guidelines (more like suggestions) for Obama judges to maybe consider, if they want to, while they consider how they feel any given case should be decided.

Gots ta keep up wit JayZ and what's-her-name---the 2 worst influences on American music in history! Folks, I have a feeling if we ever separated the races (Black and White) and the Blacks formed their own governments, especially schools, etc....They would be so sick of one another and the corruption that they would be begging for whitey to come back into the picture! They would drive each other nuts!

The USA is all about Equity. And if a bLack woman steals from American taxpayers, well, that's just a form of reparations that are far overdue. In fact this woman is owed an apology for persecuting her this way.
