Did she decide to "blow the whistle" after accepting a deal?

Where's the part of the tape where Petters says "Let them eat cake"?

While I understand giving immunity to the "little guy" to get to the "big guy", I can't help but think that she should have to pay for her part in this whole thing. My biggest fear is that with some of the things the defense is putting out there, we're gonna be hearing that Petters is "mentally unbalanced" before this is all over.

Now we know why she got divorced. She was getting in on with Petters and he ditched her so she blows the whistle on him. This is all too convenient

20/20 hindsight -- no wonder why the stuff at his warehouse stores was so cheap years ago -- he probably was losing money on all those deals too -- throw him in the clink with Bernie and let them rot.

If he wasn't doing anything wrong, he shouldn't had anything to fear.

The truth is, she's a woman scorned. And she is going to make Petters pay!

I grew up with Deanna in the Como Park area of St. Paul. She was a good kid and from a great family. She was a year younger then I and I was a friend of her brother.

It isn't like she started this scam and you cretin's don't know for certain what you would have done in this situation. So enough with the infantile comments and remember "there by the grace of God go I".

With that said, should a jury of her peer's find her guilty then she need's to serve the time for we reap what we sow.

And, no I am not a bible thumper, I haven't been to church in years. It's just that when you know someone in this type of situation, who grew up in similar surroundings it makes a person think.

Why would any jury believe a word this woman said ? She knew the end was in sight and she thought by calling the copps she would save herself. Suppose I killed somebody and called the cops, do you think they are going to let me go. The police set her up to record whather Boss man said, maybe she should get a lighter sentence but they cannot let her walk according to the law, but guess what, they probably will give her probation for being a two timer.

Don't hold anything in, especially an emotional burden. The only way to drown the past is to open the floodgates. If you've got something to say, come right out and say it. The only people who might be offended by your honesty don't really matter in the grand scheme of things anyway, Libra. Great changes flow smoothly through your day. When you take charge, everyone feels at home.
