The four Department of Justice (DOJ) prosecutors who recommended Roger Stone be sentenced to seven to nine years in prison left the case Tuesday after top officials sought to reduce their sentencing request.

Prosecutors Michael Marando, Adam Jed, Jonathan Kravis and Aaron Zelinsky all asked the judge in the case for permission to withdraw. Kravis left the DOJ entirely, announcing his resignation as an assistant U.S. attorney.

The four were involved in providing the initial sentencing guidance for Stone. But in a rebuke to the career prosecutors, the DOJ on Tuesday told the judge in the case to apply "far less" to Stone's sentence.

"The government respectfully submits that a sentence of incarceration far less than 87 to 108 months’ imprisonment would be reasonable under the circumstances," the DOJ wrote in a memo late Tuesday afternoon.

"While it remains the position of the United States that a sentence of incarceration is warranted here, the government respectfully submits that the range of 87 to 108 months presented as the applicable advisory Guidelines range would not be appropriate or serve the interests of justice in this case," the memo added.

Another take.  Btw, I heard the four that quit were Mueller holdovers.

Yes Mueller uncovered the Roger Stone crimes.

Uncovered or coerced?  Regardless, Stone deserves jail time, but these DOJ attorney's that quit, asking for close to 10 years for process crimes is simply laughable, and really shows the double standard within the DOJ.  Quite frankly, I wish all of them would resign, I am sure they will find some work in a leftist law firm, or as a lobbyist.

Process crimes - certainly not something you get tossed in jail for nearly a decade for.

But he should get at least 10 years for simply being a Trump supporter.

Funny , most of those go back to the Bush administration.

Yeah, but the BDS was much less than the TDS (with the exception of the WH staff destroying all the keyboards).

As stated in the "Weekly Winning" thread:

40 months.  I wonder if President Trump will overrule the judge and commute the sentence.

Yeah, I am not a Constitutional scholar, but I do know that "overrule" is not the verb. "Override" is the action and once a felon, always a felon.

Those guys dont get to just decide to quit a case, i becuse they disagree with the boss. They should all be fired

So we're going to completely skip over the Obama Administration's wrong-doings?
