Astronaut Cops A Plea

Ex-astronaut Lisa Nowak, who committed a bizarre attack on another woman over the affections of a male astronaut, has pleaded guilty to reduced charges and will escape jail time.

She's been given probation. And the judge also ordered her to write a letter of apology to her victim. Threw the book at her, he did.

Will the Navy cashier her now? Dishonorable or Bad Conduct Discharge? Can't imagine that they want to keep her at this point.

I see her being allowed to retire as a Captain and take a nice pension off into the sunset. Apparently none of what she's done (stuff that would have wiped out most any male officer's career) matters.
