Appeals Court Increases Former First Lady’s Prison Sentence from 20 Months to 4 Years

Kim Keon-hee is going to be in jail for far longer than she served as First Lady. Was pursuing politics with her husband worth this?:

 An appeals court on Tuesday increased the sentence for former first lady Kim Keon Hee from 20 months to four years in prison on corruption charges.

The Seoul High Court handed down the sentence during a hearing that was televised live, after finding her partially guilty of involvement in a stock price manipulation scheme and guilty of accepting luxury gifts from the Unification Church.

It acquitted her, however, of receiving free opinion poll results from a self-proclaimed power broker, upholding the lower court’s ruling.

The court is packed with far left judges.. this is ridiculous. Such double standards when it comes to all those crimes the Democrats have committed like Moon Jae In’s wife. Absolute hypocrisy. We’ll have to wait for Kim’s 3rd outcome of the appeals court since it can still be turned around. It’s happened before where the first was 무죄, then 유죄, and then back to 무죄.
