How can there be a trial after he is out of office? ///////// Posthumous trials can be held for a variety of reasons, including the legal declaration that the defendant was the one who committed the crime, to provide justice for society of family members of the victims, or to exonerate a wrongfully convicted person after their death.
What trial?
It is not your learning that has come a long way. It is Rove’s total transformation into a total swamp creature that has come a long way.
