I am still a big believer in the whole "innocent until proven guilty" idea. It's annoying how so many people have already convicted her based on her personal reputation. There are people out there who want her to fry who have no clue what the facts are or even what the case is really about
Yeah, but that is what america does. We make important decisions without knowing all of the facts. Technically, the beltway snipers are innocent until proven guilty too.

So...has she already "paid her dues" since she's suffered such financial loss after her bout with negative press? (ie should she just be slapped on the wrist with some community service and let go?) Opinions?
Paid her dues? To hell with that, she's paid her dues and still has more money than my whole family has made in the last ten years combined. Cry me a river. The law shouldn't make exceptions for rich people juat because they lost money. If she did what they accuse her of doing she should go to prison for a long time. I'm talking poor people's prison too, none of this club med white collar prison bullshit.
