[QUOTE="Hans Blaster, post: 77241433, member: 396028"] I haven't seen anything about the Probation office's "pre-sentencing report" or calculation, but as I noted in the "consequences" thread when I stepped away from this computer in mid-hearing, the guidelines value the judge had gotten to himself after ruling on all of the adjustments bracketed the 25-year request. If it wasn't exactly the same "level" it was very close. One commentator noted after that the 18 year sentence was *higher* than Rhodes would have gotten under the guidelines without the "terrorism enhancement" though it was lower than with the same enhancement. Perhaps it is irony that Judge Mehta as a former public defender has gone under the DOJ guidelines calculation and request by several years on five cases that still manage to constitute the 5 largest sentences related to Jan 6th: Watkins (8.5 years, OK), Webster (10 years, violence), Meggs (12 years, OK), Schwartz (14 years, 1 month, violence), and Rhodes (18 years, OK). Or maybe it's just the luck of the draw. [/QUOTE]
