Judge Amy Berman Jackson returns to the spotlight with the Paul Manafort and Roger Stone hearings
But the hearing lasted more than 90 minutes. It took that long because Judge Amy Berman Jackson always comes prepared.On that day, Jackson spoke uninterrupted to the parties for almost an hour -- 43 typed pages in total of a transcript released later. She told Manafort and the special counsel's office that she decided he had intentionally lied during his cooperation interviews and grand jury testimony following a guilty plea.
Using bench as a pulpitIn her eight years as a judge, Jackson has several times used her pulpit as a way to send a message about ethics in politics.When another Mueller defendant, Alex Van Der Zwaan, came before Jackson at his sentencing for lying to investigators last year, she did not shy away from giving him prison time. His sentence, of 30 days, was harsher than the two weeks George Papadopoulos got from her colleague Judge Randy Moss for the same crime in Mueller's investigation.
