Me either, except that she strikes me as a snooty old b*tch. I have no opinion on her stock deals. I just thought her famous "it's a good thing" quote was appropriate.

So will she have to go to jail or just pay a fine?

Bob: she's only been indicted so far.

Ok, me being an Aussie and not familiar with the US legal system, what does that mean for Martha?

That means her options are to make a deal with the governement, or (as she's said she'll do) go to trial and force the governement to prove their case (not guilty until proven otherwise).

Oops! Forgot!

That means that a grand jury has determined that there is probable cause to proceed with a trial against her on nine charges. If the grand jury had not returned an indictment, she would not stand trial.

Ahhhh, different to our legal system then. Thanks for the info. :)

More trouble for Martha then. :eek3:

The ironic thing is that the $230,000 she saved has cost here tens of millions of dollars so far.

I wonder how much sleeping with Anthony Hopkins has cost her!

Maybe she would go well with some fava beans and a bottle of Chianti. Slurp.

Anthony Hopkins wants to focus on her salad.
