If the government vacates the charges or Flynn is given the opportunity to change his plea, then he just becomes (potentially) an innocent man who paid a fortune in legal fees to prove his innocence.
I've been saying for months now that what Flynn REALLY wants is a formal ruling by a court that the Mueller team engaged in prosecutorial misconduct. This would not only clear him of the charges, but would do it in a way that gives him legal recourse to sue the U.S. government for a sh!t-load of money in the process.
This is exactly what happened to Steven Hatfill in the infamous anthrax case from 2001.
That makes sense. Sidney Powell, his new attorney, is an expert on federal misconduct, and would have a better chance of proving such a case.
And this is the Judge that through out Senator Steven’s conviction when Weismann crucified him the same way.
I have thought the assessment by some that this was Weismann’s special prosecutor team and Mueller was just a figurehead has some truth to it.
