- porkloin 11y agoA lot of people are guilty of a lot of things and don't ever get investigated or prosecuted. I agree with you that people take things a little far, but I think it's hardly conspiratorial thinking to acknowledge that the DOJ selectively pursues cases based on other factors than the crime committed.
- rayiner 11y agoA lot of people are not guilty of insider trading.
- CamperBob2 11y agoNacchio broke multiple laws every day, just like you and I do. They were always going to be able to find something.
- rayiner 11y agoWhat laws do you break every day that are on the same order of magnitude as insider trading laws?
- CamperBob2 11y agoOur opinion about what laws "matter" isn't important. We're not the ones who get to decide.
- tptacek 11y agoDefinitely makes it easier for them to find something when that something grosses you almost 40 million dollars.
- dragonwriter 11y agoThe idea that DOJ was targeting based on something other than the crimes committed isn't supported unless there are people guilty of the same crimes -- not just the same number of crimes -- that were not pursued.
