Tabs: I like your vivid description of all Martha will go through. But I think there's a bigger picture here, which is the Feds saying to all people of influence that their influence will no longer allow them to sidestep what is illegal. If Martha was made an example of, it was that.
I really could care less what happens to her - she could scrub toilets, darn prison socks, or be on a chain gang cleaning up highway garbage. Her reputation was crap when she was first alleged of insider trading. The bigger and better message is to all the potential Marthas out there who think they can do the same and not get punished for it.
