This is a very sad 'story' of Gross Injustice. Stewart was a defender of the rights of those denied it throughout her life. She was set-up and used as an example to scare other lawyers from even thinking of defending those accused of 'terrorism'. Forget the 'innocent until proven guilty' or 'right to defense attorney to protect one's rights and facilitate a just legal process. Lynn herself has cancer, which has now metastasized and she is not expected to live much longer - but no compassionate reduction of her sentence will be allowed - not even confinement to her own home or a hospital. The brutal regime in control now shows no mercy - less so for those who are bleeding hearts who'd help the underdog. Pleas sign the petition, without a massive response, Lynn will soon die a horrible death in a maximum security facility - despite never having done any wrong but defend her client to the best of her ability, and as is under the Constitution everyone's right. Wrong.
