That is incorrect. Stewart was charged with securities fraud, obstruction of justice, and conspiracy.

Stewart was found guilty on the three charges I cited above.

Wrong -- CAG cited "securities fraud, obstruction of justice, and conspiracy." Prosecutors, though, dropped all of the charges EXCEPT obstruction of justice and of lying to investigators. Thus, there was no underlying crime involved. It's surprising that CAG fell for Barr's bullshit subterfuge.
