CNN reports that GOP Rep. Chris Collins is facing “up to 150 years in prison if he’s convicted on all counts” related to yesterday’s indictment for alleged insider trading:
Congressman Chris Collins could face up to 150 years in prison if he’s convicted on all counts, Nick Biase, a spokesman for the Southern District of New York, tells @SchneiderCNN @MarkMorales51

Not so says CNN legal analyst and former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti:
Realistically he is facing a few years in prison, maybe more but certainly in the single digits. The maximum possible sentence doesn’t mean much. https://t.co/0t20jRqqHx

Well, sure. But Mariotti’s tweet is not going to get anywhere near the 1300 likes that Raju’s tweet received. Doesn’t he know the game? Viral = ratings, baby!
