Judge Throws Out Conviction Of Woman Who Laughed At Jeff Sessions
Desiree Fairooz faced up to a year in jail after she was found guilty of unlawful conduct on Capitol Grounds. But at her sentencing, the judge called for a new trial.
Instead of sentencing a woman to jail time for laughing during Jeff Sessions' confirmation hearing, a D.C. judge threw out the woman's conviction and called for a new trial.
Desiree Fairooz says her laughter during the attorney general's confirmation hearing in January was involuntary.
