I think the other critical point is that some naive readers might think that regulators are interested in the pursuit of the truth. That they go in and weigh the information and make an honest attempt to figure out what happened. This is not the case. They can and will take any information in the worst possible light. They want fine and convictions not for the fair decision to be made.

> They can and will take any information in the worst possible light You are saying they want slam dunk cases, but are apparently obtaining these outcomes using evidence that can go either way? You don't see the contradiction there?

All you need to do is read a press release the DOJ puts out to know this is true. Especially the cases they lose. The judicial system is adversarial by nature. The goal of the prosecution is to put forward its best possible case that basically means assuming the worst of any piece of evidence.
