The sheik is serving a life sentence for conspiracies to blow up New York landmarks and assassinate then-Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. Stewart represented the sheik at his 1995 trial. She's serving 10 years in prison. She's been imprisoned since 2009. A compassionate-release request was previously denied. (AP Photo/ Louis Lanzano)
