So, we have the popular politician and political leader of the Far right conservatives guilty of criminal activity. Ms. La Pen was convicted of the misuse of EU funds for her own use, campaign funding. Approx. $4 millions of dolars were used for her personal campaign while running for office.
She was sentenced to 4 years in prison: 2 of which were suspended , and 2 years of monitored release to a facility. She will be ineligible to run for office for 5 years. Her attorneys will appeal. So much for a Far Right takeover of Europe/France/Germany.
Her late father, who ran the far right on France for years, forgot to mention about the use of public funds for one's own campaign(s). She now know about this abuse. Will she impart this lesson to her party? Hmmmmm.
