Seems to me criminal charges would be in order if this is all true.

Lawyers don’t use computers, company cell phones, or leave any trail of information. If they do, get a different attorney. Hand notes cryptic in nature, and in their heads.

[The Free Engineer]

Why would lawyers, whose work would supposedly be privileged, refrain from taking notes? Did they suspect that the law as written did not apply anymore? That laws were now whatever federal minder and bosses said they were and your notes could at any time be swept into an investigation?

Then again, why would the owners of the preferred bonds, people who sat in the offices of their investment advisors, and asked “What is the lowest risk and safest investment I can make”? suspect that their bonds would be stolen and that they would be called out as “Speculators” by the President of the United States?

Wasn’t Government Motors owned and controlled by the federal government?

We’re from the government, and we’re here to help you.

Get with the program, GM!

Dozens if not hundreds of people killed or injured so GM could save 57 cents per ignition switch.
All those involved probably got a bonus for saving GM money.

Remember the old saying, What's good for GM is good for the USA ?
Well that saying was before zer0 took tax payer money and acquired stock and then gave it to the UAW for their continued support.
It would be good for the USA tax payer if they got left out of these law suits and the blame was shifted to include those who built these death traps. They were there and on board for this fiasco and should be held responsible.
I certainly am not.

My daughter had a cobalt. I guess she is lucky to be alive. She loved that car too. This story is very disturbing. I should probably read the whole thing. The Times can still do a good job on some things, at least the writing can be decent.
