Some quick Friday afternoon news:
1. Judge Marcia Cooke ordered that Jose Padilla not be shackled in Court.
2. Judge William Zloch sentenced attorney Sam Burstyn to 42 months (18 months less than the 60 month statutory cap the government was asking for and 35 months more than the credit time served sentence the defense was asking for). Burstyn scored out much higher than the 60 month cap (for a 371 conspiracy) under the guidelines.
