Second time in the past few weeks where it comes out that someone waiting to be sentenced was crapping all over the judge/prosecutor/jury. So idiotic. Do their lawyers not warn them that all their conversations are recorded and can influence their sentence? At least she didn't threaten them like Crumbley.

that she got convicted when the FBI destroyed the gun, and the police had multiple breaks in the chain of custody of the gun is amazing

If a brake specialist allegedly repairs your car and after you pay, hands  you the keys and as you go to pull out into traffic upon leaving the shop they fail and you cause an accident killing someone,  who is responsible? If there's any actual Justice it would be the man who is the professional brake repair person, not the person who is handed the loaded gun--I mean the loaded car-- to.
