How to use felony in a sentence?

  1. The US attorney:

    Us lawyers have talked about it, we don't believe it's true, we think it's going to turn out to be untrue because it would be totally illegal. You can't wiretap a lawyer, you certainly can't wiretap his client who's not involved in the investigation. No one has suggested that President Donald Trump was involved in that investigation. So they're going to wiretap the lawyer, his client, and his client the president of the United States ? I don't think so, not if they want to stay out of jail. Disclosing a wiretap is a federal felony. I never took'em home when I was The US attorney.

  2. Caitlin Cedfeldt:

    Tenants are being told they need to leave, landlords will say' You know this declaration is under perjury and you could go to prison.' But people might say,' Should I just leave rather than have a felony ?'.

  3. Lanny Davis:

    There is no factual dispute, mr. Trump's lawyers said President Donald Trump directed Michael Cohen to make that payment. President Donald Trump is as much guilty of a felony, President Donald Trump just hasn't owned up to it.

  4. Rick Santorum:

    Felony records (are) making it very difficult for folks to get jobs coming back out of prisons. It is a serious problem.

  5. Maxim Behar:

    Perhaps the spreading of fake news shouldn`t be criminalized as a felony, but it must be penalized in some way, and there should at least be court trials for that.
