Carol Gilbert, 57, a Roman Catholic nun who is serving 33 months at Alderson for her role in a 2002 antiwar protest at a missile silo, tells the Rocky Mountain News – through her attorney, Sue Tyburski – about dining with Stewart: "We're not talking about a tea party. We're talking about a big cafeteria setting with the terrible food."
As for Stewart, 63, who is serving five months on an obstruction of justice charge: "She's in great demand for people to visit with at lunchtime" and is receiving "kid-glove" treatment from the guards, Tyburski said.
Sister Carol bolstered suggestions that Stewart is writing a book about her prison experience. (There have been reports that one New York publisher is ready to hand Stewart a $5 million advance for a book once she walks out of prison.)
Tyburski also said that her client she hopes she writes about women who have received lengthy sentences under federal mandatory drug-sentencing laws. "Rather than worrying about herself," the attorney said, "she's thinking about everybody else there."
