"I have learned more of the fallibility of American justice, which does convict many people, who, like me, would never dream of committing a crime in a thousand years."
It is amazing the number of people who commit white collar crime [1] make the claim that they would not dream of committing crime. White collar crime is as inexcusable as any other.
[1] obstruction of justice and honest services fraud in this instance. As I understand it, the US supreme court ordered a review of the applicability of honest services fraud. From wikipedia Quote "The jailed former media baron's obstruction of justice conviction, for which he is serving a concurrent 6 ½ year sentence, remains in place."
Tho, the rest of the article is well written, I wonder if he considers himself to be small fry, since he states "A trillion dollars have been spent, a million easily replaceable small fry are in prison", tho not in the context of white collar crime.
Need less to say, he is big fry getting away with crime. Context is everything.
