To gain perspective on the fact, note her string of post-release professional successes. In summary, the people who are her fans and who buy her products (I'm not among them) simply do not care about what today is considered ancient history.
I suspect most are not even aware of Ms. Stewart's two decades ago four-month timeout. And if they were informed of what Ms. Stewart did while she was jailed, her stock with her fans would rise noticeably.
Regard it as you will, this is reality in early 21st century America when it comes to celebrities regularly producing very bigly for their most devoted fans.

I care
and I'm sure there are others. Just like I care, for example, that Chris Brown acted like a caveman bashing in Rihanna's face.
...but, anyway, it doesn't matter either way as I'm not into her/his stuff at all pre- or post-conviction.
Yup, Yankeeland has been quite superficial and ludicrous, how else can a girl who got her sextape 'accidentally' released suddenly become super-famous, w her family tagging along? Just inexplicable.
