If nothing else, I'll go for the verdict or the sentencing.

Typo in item #6: "and furnish a cop of such exhibits to the court." (should read "copy")

It sounds like he will not actually be sentenced at this hearing.

it should not be lost on anyone the devine providence of this date. the sentencing occurs on the 14 of iyar which is pesach sheni indeed an auspicious time for redemption and being set free

" ...an auspicious time for redemption and being set free"
unless of course you are guilty in which case April 28 is good day to get the book thrown at you.

I think part of his incarceration should be spent in Guatemala doing community service.

without seeing the pre-sentencing report (psr), one must suspect that a fatico hearing to contest the psr will take place. this hearing could go on for weeks (months) depending upon what is contested. the longer the fatico hearing, the possibility of angering the court. after the hearing, the court will write it's sentence up, read it to Rubhaskin and because he remains in custody, will be delivered shortly to the BOP. It is during this time that his new home will be determined. There are many frumma Yidden at BOP Otisville, which is near non-lubavitch, but close to chassidic communities. Later on he might be transferred to BOP FOrt Dix in NJ. whatever happens, Hashem is the true judge.

i hope he'll rot in jail for 20 years .
i hope rubashkin's millions and his ability to ' buy ' his release won't work .
i hope the jugde will not give in to chabad political connections .
i hope this bastard will not see the light
and the judge will not allow him to get out of jail for the day to go to a wedding or a bar mitsva , or a jewish holiday .
i hope the jugde will not give him ' house detentention' so that he will have sex with his wife every nite, like there's no tomorrow .
.........i hope rubashkin will rot in jail for years- 20 years . and give a lesson to all chabad bastards - especially all these rabbis who fraud . those who make money from real estate deals and file with the state as ' donations ' .
Posted by: ilona | March 22, 2010 at 09:16 PM
why did it took solong to set up a sentencing date ?
i had the feeling they wanted to overwhelm
the judge with letters of support from politicians to get rubashkin a lighter sentence .
shame . i hope the jugde will be fair and sentence this bastard to a long jail sentence AND NO PROBATION .
Posted by: yossi | March 22, 2010 at 09:22 PM
i have a very strong feeling that rubashkin will buy his way out . bc of his political connections and money .
and if he will ever have jail, it will be 2 years , which is nothing .
Posted by: joel | March 22, 2010 at 09:36 PM
