US prosecutors have asked a judge to sentence President Donald Trump's longtime aide Roger Stone to between seven and nine years in jail for lying to Congress and witness tampering
Washington - US prosecutors have asked a judge to sentence President Donald Trump's longtime aide Roger Stone to between seven and nine years in jail for lying to Congress and witness tampering.
He was arrested in January 2019 at his home in Florida after the charges were brought by then-special counsel Robert Mueller as part of the Russia investigation. Prosecutors said Stone's conduct following the start of his trial"demonstrated the low regard in which he held these proceedings." Stone, 67, had argued that the charges against him were politically motivated, but prosecutors said he lied and bullied witnesses to protect Trump.
