Martha Stewart received the minimum sentence yesterday -- five months in prison, plus five months of home confinement -- for lying to federal investigators about a stock sale that she called ''a small personal matter''...
In addition to five months at a minimum-security federal prison, Ms. Stewart must spend five more months under house arrest at her 153-acre estate in Bedford, N.Y., wearing an electronic monitoring bracelet so that her whereabouts can be tracked. She was also ordered to remain on probation for another 19 months and to pay a $30,000 fine and court fees.
