Old-lefty defense attorney Lynne Stewart was sentenced yesterday to 28 months in prison for smuggling messages out of prison for her convicted terrorist client, Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman. The government had requested a 30-year sentence. Here are five local papers' headlines on today's story:
"Stewart Gets 28 Months on Terror Charge"
"Terror Lawyer Off Light"
"Lawyer, Facing 30 Years, Gets 28 Months, to Dismay of U.S."
"Civil Rights Lawyer Gets 28 Months in Prison"
"Wrist Slap for Smirk Jerk Terror Attorney"

So, can you guess which one is the Post's?
