Lois Leviathan took the Fifth. We will never learn the truth.
This is not going to be a popular comment, but read through to the end.
She is a great example of why you should never talk to cops.
If she testified truthfully she would go to jail and the administration would fall.
She knew the tracks were covered, and as long as she doesn’t talk the house of cards doesn’t fall.
No personal good ever comes from even casually aiding in an investigation. Even the Miranda warning tells you that anything can be used AGAINST you—not for you—to put you in jail. What sane person would talk to the authorities in that situation.
As the Dem’s say, “This is a teachable moment.”
While I abhor the context of her stonewalling, you have to understand her standing her ground. More republicans in the past should have told the investigators to F-off. Not lie, but just shut up.
The only way she is going to talk is if they put a gun to a close relative’s head, or if the check doesn’t clear to the Swiss bank. I would not be shocked to see her fall down some stairs or have a heart attack out of the blue.
It is the best advice ever from a defense attorney. Don’t do their work for them.
