I think people get scared it's going to be used against them but it's actually the opposite. You're taking that thing away from them.

I don't think he should be punished, I think he should do what's in his power to fix it. Which in this case is either a story that confirms what he reported or that tells how he screwed it up.

My advice to Steven is start workshopping your "The Internet Archive was hacked" story bc tweets he wants to go away have all been archived as well as the screwups & admissions that link him to them.

Ironically, AOC is one of the few Dems that might actually respond to random "debrief" offer via email.

And second - McCoy is the oldest looking 29 year old I've ever seen. No question he could get clocked as mid-40s.
(The other major issue is he was allegedly home for Thanksgiving in Utah the next day, but maybe there will turn out to be more to that story)

Look, the D.B. Cooper sketches look like a LOT of people if you stare at it long enough.
But it REALLY looks like McCoy (apart from maybe the ears)

Like in this case, where the majority reasoned inversely to the original opinion - if Congress wanted the rule to INCLUDE prosecutors, it would have said so.
So it goes.

There just is no rule of statutory construction that lets you hand-wave away the original conclusion. The statute *clearly* prohibits plea deals on its face.
But the court has other tools in it's bag when it really wants or needs them.

Thinking about the value of a truly great lawyer (which I'm not sure Jim has, but we'll see) reminded me of US vs Singleton
Where a great lawyer got the 10th Circuit to (temporarily) agree plea deals were bribery & therefore illegal.

18 USC § 201 is a Federal Statute. It states:
"Whoever directly or indirectly gives, offers or promises anything of value to any person, for testimony given or to be given by such person as a witness upon a trial..." has committed bribery.
IOW - nothing of value can be given for witness testimony

It's one of those decisions that really shows how the system works for criminal defendents.
- Yes, it's Congress' job to make the rules.
- Yes, we are bound by the plain meaning of an unambiguous statute.
- But no, we will not be grinding the justice system to a halt.
- Thank you, come again

The 3-judge decision was handed down on July 1st. On July 10th that ruling was vacated and the appeal was reheard by the 10th Circuit en banc.
Possibly a record turn-around for an appeals court. Needless to say, the en banc panel uhhh...did not agree.

It's a great decision. The judges basically say:
'Whoever' mean whoever, less punishment is a thing of value & if justice is harmed by the defense doing it then it's harmed when a prosecutor does.
If Congress wanted to except the government it should have said so.

For like one week, lol.
In US v Singleton, Sonya Singleton's lawyer argued the DOJ committed bribery when it struck a bog-standard plea deal with her co-defendant that offered him a reduced sentence in exchange for testifying against Sonya at trial.
And a 3 judge panel on the 10th Circuit agreed!!

It's a very plain & broad statute that-on its face-appears to prohibit prosecutors from offering leniancy or immunity in exchange for testifying against a co-defendant.
Just as clearly as it prohibits the defense from writing them a check to testify on behalf of the defendant.
And in 1998 it did!

The requesting side gets a lot of deference (and Flynn's requests are pretty standard) but it's still a chance for a skilled lawyer to lawyer.
