Punishment for what?

I'm assumin' that the house arrest is intended to be her part of her sentence.

This isn't a reward so it must be punishment.

I have no idea why she really went to jail, I was commenting on the final phase of her sentence.

The loss of the freedom to go where you want and when you want can be severe punishment for a free soul. My movements are restricted and sometimes it really depresses me. Be it punishment or cabin fever restriction is a pain.

I don't think the punishment fit the crime unless all of you speeders out there think you should go to jail. Traffic violations put more people at risk every day than Martha lying to the Feds.

I think some Feds are regretting their actions in this case right now. The purpose was to make an example and it seems they came out on the short end.

She still has a very lusty laugh. I wonder if she is accepting sleep-ins.
