If she's not convicted, how can she be sentenced?

I thought she was only arrested and charged; not found guilty of anything yet....has been tried and been found guilty yet?

Progressives are giving everyone a nice look into what they will do to their enemies when given control again.

There wouldn't be a need for a trial if she plead guilty.

Agree but then she'd have to wait for sentencing and this judge would probably delay the shite out of it to extend their 15 minutes of fame

Well did any of y'all see the hearing where the judge was lecturing the poor woman? Then you know the reason the governor is "pussy footing" around. I suspect the governor tried this approach first hoping the judge will change his mind. I will be shocked if this judge does though.

Texas AG calling for her release

quote:

DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) – Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has called for the “immediate release” of a Dallas salon owner who was arrested and sent to jail for opening her business in defiance of Gov. Greg Abbott’s stay-at-home orders.

Shelley Luther, owner of Salon A La Mode, was sentenced to seven days in jail Tuesday after Dallas judge Eric Moye said she violated those orders as the coronavirus pandemic continues.

Paxton said he believes the judge is abusing his authority and that her arrest seems like a “political stunt.” In a full statement, Paxton said:

“I find it outrageous and out of touch that during this national pandemic, a judge, in a county that actually released hardened criminals for fear of contracting COVID-19, would jail a mother for operating her hair salon in an attempt to put food on her family’s table,” said Attorney General Paxton. “The trial judge did not need to lock up Shelley Luther. His order is a shameful abuse of judicial discretion, which seems like another political stunt in Dallas. He should release Ms. Luther immediately.”

The attorney general sent a letter to Moye, saying her sentencing was “significantly overbroad.” He mentioned that Abbott’s new executive order will allow her to operate business starting on Friday.

Bongino is asking those who live in Texas to flood the Governor's office with phone calls and emails demanding a full pardon.

He should have sent Texas State Police to arrest the judge and hand deliver her pardon to the local Sheriff.

Abbott is about as tough on that judge as the Aggie football team

There is no law broken and nothing to plead guilty to.

She was just jailed and fined for not saying sorry to the judge and keeping her business open. Seriously.

Should have said "if the judge so much as J walks he's going in 4 point shackles and getting hauled off to jail".
