Play with fire, you get burned. I'm not going to jump to conclusions, I want to see the truth come out and lead where it may.
Having said that, I think we all know that the job of a "special prosecutor" is to find someone -- anyone -- to pin some blame on, prosecute the hell out of them, throw them in jail and call it a day.
That's how special prosecutors justify their existence. Just ask Scooter Libby who was just vindicated as not having done anything wrong after serving time and getting his law license back recently.
Now where does he go to get his reputation back?
I agree with everything you said. I want the truth to come out ...but it is fraught with the perils you point out
There are several side lawsuits that will bring out info. The Jody Kriss racketeering lawsuit even managed to get docs unsealed.
Manafort’s daughter and her husband are being sued over defaulting on mortgage loans. Interesting history there and ties into this discussion
And deripaska offered his testimony in exchange for immunity. So far immunity turned down that I know of
And Scooter is a tailor made case study why and when to keep your mouth shut. If he kept it shut, they can't wrongly construe to make a legal case.
