Last updated

Reade presided over the trial and sentencing of kosher slaughterhouse operator Sholom Rubashkin. [4] The case and Reade's 27-year sentence garnered the attention of many prominent politicians and received widespread media coverage. [5] Rubashkin alleged on appeal that Reade improperly met with prosecutors before the Postville raid without disclosing her involvement, but the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit unanimously affirmed. [6] [7] On December 20, 2017, after having served eight years of his 27-year sentence, President Donald Trump commuted Rubashkin's sentence to time served, and he was released from prison that day. [8]

Aossey case

Reade presided over the case of William Aossey, the founder of Midamar Corporation and Islamic Services of America, who was convicted of fraud for falsifying labels on beef exported to Malaysia and Indonesia. Aossey was found guilty and Reade departed from federal guidelines, sentencing Aossey to two years. [9] [10]

Dierks case

On June 13, 2018, Reade sentenced Joseph Dierks to six years in prison for threatening to kill Senator Joni Ernst on Twitter. The sentence, which exceeded federal sentencing guidelines, was imposed on Dierks for disparaging comments he made regarding Reade, the prosecutor, the prosecutor's children, and black corrections officers. [11]
