Yes, it's done everyday... And it's surprising that they are actually punishing her, because every other 'bad' famous people get off with like nothing...

What I think is stupid that Martha goes for 5 months... For 'pocketchange' to her..  While the wife of the Enron guy gets a year for knowing and helping her husband steal MILLIONS of dollars from people... And I heard the guy was getting 20, not sure if that's true or not. If it is, that is sad. He should get life automatically.. (my opinion)

She didn't kill anyone...she didn't steal medical care from others (lol)...so there is no reason she should go to jail.


There are things you should go to jail for that are not taking someone elses life or medical care.

All she did was 'borrow' some money, she should NOT have to go to jail for that.

What bugs me is that our legal system was so incredibly quick to grab Martha, put her on trial, and convict her, when she really isn't a danger to society. However, I can think of three other high profile cases in which the defendants could and in the last case, definitely are a danger to society: Kobe Bryant, Michael Jackson, and Saddam Hussein. Michael Jackson, I believe, thoguh, settled out of court, and Kobe's has been dragging on for quite some time? Or has his trial only just begun? Okay, I suppose I'll admit that Saddam Hussein was being kept for the Iraqi's to try, but still...the legal system was not nearly as quick to try and convict the other two, who could have posed a threat to society. So why is it that Martha Stewart was the one who needed to be taken care of most quickly?

I'm not saying that she's innocent; I didn't follow her trial at all, so I don't know any of the evidence; I'm just saying the speed of the whole thing bugs me...

Insiders trading is wrong! :P although is it done everyday...they just are proving a point...silly really...everyone just wants to see perfect martha put behind bars...please. She's going to an upscale prison where she can play tennis and swim and talk "housewares". The Bitch got off easy.But she's innocent...truely...loads of people do it..why is the government going to start being OH GOTTA GET YOU IN JAIL SO NO ONE ELSE DOES THAT!?!?! Please..free Martha.


She is not innocent, once again: if I were to kill someone and you killed someone yet I got punished for it, and you never got caught doesn't make you innocent of killing.

maybe not...but they are just trying to prove a point and Martha isn't the right person to prove it with because people don't like her. Half of people don't know why she is going to jail but just want to see her in jail because she's a bitch. It would be a better "example" on a person that everyone likes.

I know what it is.  I choose to think of it as borrowing money.

She's a nice old lady. She shouldn't have to go to jail.

Baffling.
