IANAL. Last I checked, successful prosecution of perjury results in a wobbler felony sentence in most parts of the US. Were you trying to say lying under oath is usually very difficult to prove?
- creaghpatr 8y agoPerjury traps are typically used by the intel agencies to force people to cooperate with larger cases, the threat of bankrupting their families with a multi-million dollar lawsuit is usually enough to get them to plead guilty to lying in exchange for cooperation and immunity.
- forapurpose 8y agoNot a lawyer either. > Were you trying to say lying under oath is usually very difficult to prove? No, I'm saying it is rarely prosecuted at all, based on what I've been told by attorneys.
