she was charged with "threatening communications over interstate commerce", if she had money for appeals court she'd probably walk free with a constitutionally questionable law like that just because the feds never go after anyone with money with their weaker laws doesn't mean their laws represent legality or illegality. you just still might wind up in prison for being indicted and convicted of something illegal. this changes when you're rich and your rights matter if they indicted her with a conspiracy charge that could be stronger. but I've seen those get dropped on appeal too specifically with some kind of parody/fan fiction defense. so what's the difference? it's unresolved.
