Two weeks was all it took for a Russian court to say what we had known they would say all along - that Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Platon Lebedev are guilty.
They’ve been sentenced to nine years each, only slightly less than the 10 year sentences that the prosecution had requested. The third defendant, Andrei Krainov was handed a 5 year suspended sentence, again only slightly below the 5.5 years requested by the prosecution. Presumably, the court was showing it’s lenience.
More later.
