... that I almost NEVER agree with Ron Kuby (who describes himself as a commie
) -- he is a cohost of Curtis (Sliwa of Guardian Angels fame) and Kuby out of WABC radio in NYC and has defended some high profile clients -- but I began to see this angle after something he said that was essentially what you just did. It's not all that uncommon and human to know you are innocent but panic in the face of events that don't look too good for you or if you have no way to prove that innocence.
Personally I think that fraud charge the judge threw out should be prosecuted against the prosecutors for misconduct! They had to manufacture that charge in order to indict her. Does anyone really think they would have indicted her on just the charges she has now been found guilty of? They made an allegation then tried to say her proclaimations of innocence were criminal. She clearly DIDN'T do any insider trading. And since no charges were ever brought pertaining directly to the stock trade, she clearly didn't do anything illegal there either.
