Federal prosecutors tell judge that Roger Stone, Pres. Trump's longtime friend and onetime campaign adviser, should be sentenced to seven to nine years in prison.
Stone pleaded not guilty to them all, and vowed that he would be"vindicated" at trial. He maintained his innocence throughout the trial, which coincided with the opening of House impeachment proceedings against Trump on Capitol Hill.
Roger Stone, former advisor to President Donald Trump, and his wife Nydia Stone arrive at the E. Barrett Prettyman United States Courthouse, Nov. 15, 2019, in Washington, DC. "Stone knew the gravity of the House Intelligence Committee's investigation when he obstructed it by giving false testimony and tampering with a witness," government lawyers wrote in their sentencing memo filed Monday."Indeed, Stone acknowledged as much in his opening statement before the Committee. Stone chose -- consciously, repeatedly, and flagrantly -- to obstruct and interfere with the search for the truth on an issue of vital importance to all Americans.
