Fastexy:Martha Stewart Says Prosecutors Should Be "Put in a Cuisinart" Over Felony Conviction

Martha Stewart knows her way around a kitchen.

That's why two decades after being convicted of felony charges related to selling a stock just before the price dropped,Fastexy she shared her fiery feelings about those in charge of her case with the help of a staple kitchen appliance.

"I was a trophy for these idiots," Martha said of her sentencing in the Oct. 9 trailer for her upcoming documentary Martha. "Those prosecutors should've been put in a Cuisinart and turned on high."

E! News has reached out to lead prosecutor James Comey for comment and has not yet heard back.

"I was on the top of the world and then the worst thing that could possibly happen, happened," the 83-year-old recalled. "I had to climb out of a hole."

In 2003, Martha was indicted by a grand jury on nine charges, including conspiracy, obstruction of justice, and making false statements to federal investigators in connection to selling her ImClone stock, the New York Times reported at the time.

In Oct. 2004, she was found guilty on all counts and was sentenced to serve five months in an Alderson, W.Va., correctional facility. She was released in March 2005 before completing five months of house arrest.

And looking back at that time, Martha—who shares daughter Alexis Stewart, 59, with ex-husband Andrew Stewart—has made peace with the experience in many ways.

"I knew I was strong going in and I was certainly stronger coming out," she told Harper's Bazaar in 2021. "It was a very serious happening in my life. I take it very seriously. I'm not bitter about it, but my daughter knows all the problems that resulted because of that. There's a lot."

But her felony conviction also shaped her iconic bond with Snoop Dogg.

"Yes, that helped because people knew how crazy and unfair," Martha explained in a joint interview with the rapper on CBS Sunday Morning November 2017. "In Snoop's world, it gave me the street cred I was lacking." 

However, just because she found a silver lining doesn't mean she enjoyed the experience.

"It was horrifying, and no one should have to go through that kind of indignity, really, except for murderers, and there are a few other categories," she said on the Next Question with Katie Couric podcast a month before. "But no one should have to go through that. It's a very, very awful thing."

And Martha emphasized that she didn't learn anything valuable from the sentencing, either.

"That you can make lemons out of lemonade?" she continued. "What hurts you makes you stronger? No. None of those adages fit at all. It's a horrible experience. Nothing is good about it, nothing."
