Ex-Assembly Speaker (((Sheldon Silver’s))) 2015 corruption conviction overturned

[C.Martel]

A federal appeals court, citing a Supreme Court ruling from last year, tossed out the corruption conviction of disgraced ex-Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver.

The Thursday ruling by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals raises the possibility of a retrial for Silver, who was convicted in November 2015 after a half-century in politics.

“We're absolutely delighted with the result, and look forward in the future to a full Silver vindication,” said Silver’s lawyers, (((Joel Cohen))) and Steven Molo.

Silver, 73, was sentenced to 12 years in prison for his participation in a pair of crooked schemes involving $4 million in kickbacks and bribes.

Not that I support him going to (((prison))) because the rape by sodomy rates for a white male is 1 out of ten each year you stay in "prison". Which is something to be laughed about in the jewish (((comedy))) media. While for jews it is probably 1 in 50,000 or higher because the jews runs the "courts" and the "prisons" and the "government" and are protected by the sodomite (((guards))).
