But he still has one more sentencing in a different court with a different judge, and she has option of sentencing him for up to 10 years, as well as deciding if sentence will be served consecutively or concurrently.

Critics are pointing out almost 4 year sentence is a lot less than sentence for voting, and other sentences for People of Color, and this is "white man's (in)justice" for white collar crime.

It's also a lot less than the prosecutor recommended 19 1/2 YEARS to 24 years.

This seems to be a pattern with this judge TS Ellis.

Stay tuned.
