Federal prosecutors have asked a judge to sentence President Donald Trump’s former campaign aide Roger Stone to serve between seven and nine years in jail after he was found guilty last year on seven counts of obstructing a congressional investigation, making numerous false statements to Congress, and witness tampering during the Russia investigation.
Stone was indicted (pdf) in January 2019 and found guilty in November of providing false statements to the House Intelligence Committee about communications having to do with WikiLeaks, in which he allegedly sought to learn more about when the organization would publish damaging emails about 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
