Hopefully This Traitor of a "Lawyer" Does the Max

As an attorney myself, this woman particularly galls me. In violation of her oath to the state(s) in which she was licensed to practice law and her duty of loyalty to the United States. Anyone charged with a crime is, of course, entitled to representation. They are NOT, however, allowed to abuse the legal system by using their attorney and her assistants to continue fomenting jihad and breaking the law. Simply put, Lynne Stewart is a traitor and a terrorist enabler of the worst kind...she's no different or better than any traitors dating even back to ancient Roman times.

Italian author Cicero once said that even the strongest nation at repelling external security threats could not survive with constant sabotage by traitors on the inside. It's been reported down at Guantanamo that the detainees are using legal envelopes and/or their lawyers to communicate with one another and with the outside world in ways which would otherwise never be allowed. A message needs to be sent here just in case any of the moonbat lawyers at Gitmo get any similar ideas or are already acting this way. Michelle Malkin has all the details, so check it out. This woman deserves no leniency, and I hope she gets none.

"Stewart and her co-conspirators flouted their agreement with the Justice Department and helped the sheikh circumvent the communications ban. According to government recordings of their prison visits, Yousry, who also served as an adjunct lecturer in Middle East studies at York College of the City University of New York, conveyed messages to and from the sheikh while Stewart created what the prosecution called "covering noises." On some surveillance videos, Stewart could be seen shaking a water jar or tapping on the table while Yousry and the sheikh exchanged communications that were then later disseminated to the sheikh's followers via the former paralegal. The prosecutor argued, citing a letter written by the U.S. attorney's office to Stewart after she delivered the message to Reuters, that it was not in the sheikh's legal rights "to pass messages which, simply put, can get people killed and buildings blown up." They argued that the case was equivalent to a "jail break," in which the defendants extracted Abdel Rahman from prison, "not literally, of course, [but] figuratively, in order to make him available to other terrorists."
