  5. People steal what they do not have. Logics suggests that she does not have.

    So exactly where or how the court expect the judgement to work?

    If she defaults then what?

    Perhaps some information is missing.

    Strange judgement though, no fine or confinement so the state did not benefit from that crime. Very interesting….

    • Sometimes people steal out of greed.I can understand a one off situation,but when someone embezzles those amount of money over a period of time,it is nothing less than greed,she saw the opportunity and just acted on it.. It is not the courts business in my opinion whether she has the money to meet the deadlines or not,if she doesn’t she will just be jailed ..And why should the state have to benefit from that crime,it was not the state coffers she interfered with,it was a Private entity.I am sure they would be more satisfied getting back their money than her been Imprisoned .

  6. Then how is it they were able to pay workers so early? Clearly especially investors have faith in this government ability to move this country forward

  8. HONESTLY !!!!!! CAN THIS LADY REPAY THESE MONEY ? . IF NOT ….WHAT NEXT. I DID NOT SEE THE ALTERNATIVE. HOPE SHE CAN .
