Yeah I really can't see much happening out of this at all. Martha will walk away with a few fines, her stockbroker might get fined and possibly suspended from trade but I doubt for very long.

"Martha Stewart was convicted Friday of obstructing justice and lying to the government about a superbly timed stock sale — a devastating verdict that probably means prison for the woman who epitomizes meticulous homemaking and gracious living.

Stewart was found guilty of conspiracy, making false statements and obstruction of justice. The charges carry up to 20 years in prison at sentencing June 17, but she will most certainly get much less than that under federal sentencing guidelines."

18 months in a minimum security jail is likely, she'll have to step down as CEO of MSO, msnbc said her stock has lost 20 percent of its value today and continues to diminish
