    Cohen didn’t need a secret service detail.

    The Guardian are reporting it is unlikely he will see jail time

    Edit: it’s not a disagree button, it’s being widely reported he is unlikely to see jail time. that doesn’t mean i think he shouldn’t see jail time

      Everyone is reporting he won’t see jail time, which in my view is giving the court a pass on giving him a light sentence.

      In my opinion, Trump gained so much, and could gain so much from a repeat offense, that jail is the only compelling punishment for him. He is unrepentant, and would do it again in a heartbeat.

        You are correct, but nevertheless, a court so cowardly they cannot hold him accountable for blatant violations of court orders will not jail him either.

        He could never go to a traditional jail, not with the amount of classified information he was exposed to.

        He would need a separate area of Leavenworth with no interaction with other humans except the guard and secret service detail unfortunately assigned to him.

        Then he has hell to look forward to.

          Pretty sure the secret service would be the guards, I doubt “regular” confinement officers would be trusted in that situation.

          They’d have to either train a special detail, or get applicants from current CO’s to join the secret service.
