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. Ray Hunt:

    These are cases in which activist judges did everything they could to find a way to dismiss that person who probably has a lengthy criminal record or multiple felony bonds to put them back out on the streets.

This issue is very complex, but it is surmountable.
