Well, if it’s a felony, perhaps they have a reason for handling it this way.
Sure seems to be a strange way of addressing the issue to avoid the gravity of his crime though.
I’m not a legal expert though, so it may make more sense than it seems to, to me.
Sounds like that prick Comey...no reasonable prosecutor would bring more serious charges due to lack of evidence of intent.
Charge with a felony. Later have him plead no contest to a misdemeanor - judge withholds sentencing until he completes community service at some bath house.
Then his book tour, interviews, and possibly a political career.
Hes done this sh1t before. Thry ought to take this in context of that plus the threat letters he certainly faked earlier.
For him there is still the problem of the “threatening letter”. That is a felony at the federal level which is looking more and more like he had a hand in. Easy way for the locals to reduce their charge and “bump it upstairs” staying out of political bullshit in this particular case. Think those investigators wanted to be in the middle of this bullshit?
Can they add additional charges?
