The government’s key witness in the trial of Roger Stone implored a federal judge Tuesday to spare the longtime Republican operative of jail time when he is sentenced next month.
“I am writing to respectfully yet fervently implore you not to send Roger Stone to prison when he is sentenced before your Honor,†Randy Credico wrote to Judge Amy Berman Jackson in a letter reported by Yahoo! News.
A jury in Washington, D.C., convicted Stone on Nov. 15 of charges that he made false statements to the House Intelligence Committee about his contacts with associates regarding WikiLeaks. He was also convicted on a more serious count of witness intimidation.
Prosecutors successfully argued that Stone attempted to intimidate Credico into pleading the Fifth instead of testifying before the House intelligence panel.
