text: They are not alone - they simply behaved in the customary local way. They got tripped up when they ran into Alex Silvert and now someone from the same department as his is going to defend them. How ironic. Can they afford a jury trial, as the federal judge himself was in a way complicit in the same old same old way of doing things locally as he was a US Attorney when it was going on and he knew about it but, hey, that's just the way things are. Everybody does it, so what's the problem. Call who you know and get it fixed.
