Mrs Tymoshenko is a co-conspirator of mr. Lazarenko, ex-prime minister of Ukraine who is serving 8 years in USA jail for money laundering, racketeering.
Tymoshenko & Lazarenko lawyers so far could shield her from responsibility through the technicality :
so far they showed that her bribes and money laundering transfers to Lazarenko bank accounts (totally over 100 million dollars) never happened in USA, that's why Tymoshenko crime supposedly happened outside of USA jurisdiction. But this is only temporarily.
Tymoshenko will serve her jail term sooner or later
UPDATE march 4 2012 : she is in jail.
from this court document a quote:
"The statements of Yulia Tymoshenko will be admitted as co-conspirator statements. Tymoshenko was both a co-conspirator of the money laundering conspiracy charged in count 1, and a participant in the scheme to defraud...and although she has not been charged as a conspirator, the government will introduce sufficient evidence to demonstrate that she was a participant in the conspiracy and that her statements should be admitted as conspirator statements."
