There's selective prosecution, but I take your point.

  Unfortunately, when law is enforced sufficiently selectively, you do not have rule of law, nor do you live in a nation of laws. Saying that the law does not recognize whataboutism is a red herring (Unless we are talking about the outcome of a specific legal case). In short, whataboutism is a legitimate argument for why someone should not be prosecuted (Because the law has nothing to do with that decision.)
