Her release day was Sunday, but becuase the prison is low staffed on weekends, they often release people on Friday.

But at within minutes of it being Friday??

BULLSHIT. When I got out I still had to wade through processing until 2pm.

I hate rich people, they make me wana kill them.

edit: her face has gone to hell

[Godmic18]

Damn. I was hoping to see at least one edition of "Martha Setwert's Handy Prison Tips".

[finalfantasyt]

the stupid thing about all of this is that they've actually made her more famous when they sent her to prison.

[Jeffery]

No, no they didn't.

In fact, her overall worth is down, due to the fact her stock shares fell.

She built a reputation as a straight and narrow housewife type image.

[dirka dirka]

She is more popular now... Not for good reasons, however I'll tell you this. I hardly new her name before this entire ordeal.

[finalfantasyt]

yeah...i see your point...

and just to clarify, how did she get sent to prison? her stock broker gave her too much info, or something like that?

Insider Trading, she got info from inside the company that the stocks were going to fall, so she sold hers. I think it was a security guard.

[finalfantasyt]

ahh...and i agree, i had hardly heard of her before this incident.

It was the owner of the company who's stock she sold.
He told her a bad report was coming out, that a drug they were developing had been turned down by the FDA. (she and him were friends for a long time)
She sold all the stock, then the company took a nose dive.

She actually didn;t go to prison for that though. SHe went for LYING about why she sold the stock. She said she had an agreement with her broker to sell if stock dropped a certain amount. Broker said she never did that.

Well, Martha's housearrested right now. Nothing can be done. She just has the money. :mad:

Well then, I stand corrected, so it was more fo lying under oath?

basically.

Sorry to sound clueless... (only because I am)
But when where you in prison? and for how long and for what?
If this is not something you wish to talk about that’s fine too.
I was just curious.

[Jeffery]

I was young and foolish.... for several years.

Best way to put it is that I had a bad decade.......


But i am an example of a person who rode the wrong path for many years, but decided to change his ways through simple willpower. Now the worst i do is yell at people on the internet. (and speed)

*shrugs*

if I was a billionaire, I'd damn well want out of prison whenver I damn well pleased.
