Many democrat operatives use their work access to download private information and use it against Republicans and other normal people. They are almost never put in jail.

She was first interviewed in VA which tells me she worked in DC. Since she was charged with conspiracy my guess is one part of crime happened in NYC probably where the info was sent and telcons happened. I notice some reference to Whistle-Blower allegations and working with some senate staff on something too. My sense is there is some connection with Warner. Lastly this coming out the same time pelousy is adding some crap into the impeachment referral about obstruction tells me there is some connection with that. The SJDNY was working with the dems in congress against trump and there is no such thing as coincidence. 0 to six months for this is a joke.

She is protecting higher ups, that’s why the short sentence recommended.

Unless she gave the Feds someone higher up, she got off way too lightly.

WHO hires these people? Is there ANY vetting involved with that kind of responsibility they will assume on their jobs?

Vetting? P-L-E-A-S-E. They hire the best traitors they can find.

What I find most incredulous is the lack of even the most BASIC of security (while *mandating* the real-world keep every 0/1 in perpetuity).

Having worked @ DoD contracting & financial orgs., not only were USBs verboten, EVERY email/file copy+ is scanned for ANY type of personal information (SSN/Acct #, addresses+)

This is not only criminal conspiracy, but complicity.

“...she got off way too lightly.”

SOP for all DC insiders (conservatives excepted).

Right-it proves my basic idea about these kinds of stories: “I any organization, ALL problems start in HR.”

They’re members of The Progressive Church of Humanism and Cultural Marxism.

Government offices, newsrooms and universities are their churches.

They are extreme religious zealots and evangelists. They view Christians, conservatives and Republicans as muzzies view infidels.

1918 report: Natalie Mayflower Sours Edwards, a senior adviser at the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), is accused of leaking information about private citizens’ bank transactions, called Suspicious Activity Reports. Edwards provided a reporter with data that was used in 12 articles, the Department of Justice alleges.

Edwards and “an unnamed co-conspirator” (whom the WSJ identified as FinCEN colleague Kip Brailey) were allegedly in contact with the reporter for a year. Brailey’s attorney told the WSJ that Brailey, “is not a co-conspirator with anyone.”

This one stinks to high heaven. Why the wait before sentencing. And who was Kip Brailey?

0-6 months.
If she had Paul Manafort’s connections she’d get life in an oubliette.
And she wouldn’t have needed a flash drive full of sensitive data.
