Mandatory sentencing would require a guilty conviction though.
And we can pretty much guarantee any high-level judge who starts handing out guilty verdicts to high level government bureaucrats will swiftly find themselves unemployed, or worse, and replaced by judges who don't do that.
It seems to be the closer we look at high-level government bureaucracy the more similarities we see with organised crime.
Fail upwards indeed.
- jessaustin 6y ago...will swiftly find themselves unemployed, or worse... In USA, federal judges are appointed for life. They may be impeached by Congress, but the general public will notice when Congress impeaches the first judge in living memory who attempts to impose the rule of law on the bureaucracy. It will take a change of heart, however. Anyone who has any inclination in this direction would never be appointed in the first place.
