00:00She's in a good place. She's pleased that, again, that the jury has found him guilty of two federal crimes.

00:08We're pleased that he's finally been held responsible for two federal crimes,

00:15something that he's never faced in his life. He still faces substantial jail time.

00:20Of course, we would have liked to have seen a conviction on the sex crimes in RICO,

00:25but we understand that, beyond a reasonable doubt, is a high standard, and we're just pleased that he still faces substantial jail time.

00:35How much time is he doing that?

00:36Doug Wigdor, W-I-G-D-O-R.

00:40Well, each faces up to 10 years on each.

00:44I'm not sure what the sentencing guidelines are, given the various different things,

00:47but I'll leave that up to the government and the defense to argue.

00:50But I feel confident in saying he still faces substantial incarceration.

00:56How would you feel if he walks out on bail?

00:58That's up to the judge. I don't have a personal vested interest in this case.

01:02Whatever the appropriate thing to do under the law is what should be done.

01:09And at the end of the day, he needs to be sentenced pursuant to the guidelines and pursuant to what the law is.

01:15My understanding of that is that he faces significant incarceration.

01:20So thank you very much.
