Members of female Russian punk band Pussy Riot found guilty on charges of hooliganism. A plea deal was reached late afternoon on Thursday: charges of shenanigans and tomfoolery (each carrying mandatory minimum sentences of 20 stonings) were dropped in exchange for the guilty verdict to hooliganism.
Hooliganism carries a maximum sentence of 7 years in prison.
Raskolnikov has nothing on Pussy Riot.
