Lawyer who threw Molotov cocktail at NYPD car during George Floyd protests says she was drunk and dealing with 'unprocessed trauma' at the time, as she asks for reduced sentence

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]

Urooj Rahman,

pouty, connected Pakistani-American who trained with Hamas before studying human rights law at Fordham. Her self-proclaimed best friend, successful Washington, DC lawyer Salmah Rizvi, previously worked for President Obama as an intelligence analyst....

33, along with Colinford Mattis, 35, pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges punishable by no more than five years imprisonment in June

Federal prosecutors agreed to recommend a prison sentence of 18 to 24 months in return for the plea

Rahman is now pushing to have that sentence converted into time served after spending 28 days in a federal jail in Brooklyn before posting $250,000 in bail

Court documents say that Rahman's lawyers said on September 9 that Rahman was drinking vodka 'on an empty stomach' and was 'quite drunk'

That wasn't Rahman's only excuse, according to attorneys. They added that she was suffering 'early trauma' from living as Muslim in post-9/11 New York City

#1 nope, she's an lawyer and as such should know better.

Lawyers need to serve as an good example for the rest of us. If they cannot, then they need to be punished severely

#5 Well, what she did was completely ineffective, BUT... sometimes I wish my lawyer was that proactive... the car title mess would be cleaned up by now.

#8 Wow, all that law school work on torts, fancy latin phrases and contracts and the excuse for a felony is 28 days served and vodka on an empty stomach?
I bet she is actually counting on that whole other demokrat trifecta to serve her up the "oppressed persons" version of woke justice: Muslim, female, POC with bonus points for Hamas and Magic Kenyan Connections!

#11 18 to 24 months should give her a start on the "processing", no?

#14 She should be forced to clean the bathrooms at the police stations for 3-5 years. Daily.
