Sidney was General Flynn’s lawyer, but it took a pardon from the president to finally put an end to that trail of
Malicious Prosecution. I was surprised that she seemed so easily outsmarted (outgunned?) by “Judge” Emmett Sullivan.
He was corrupt, and he made corrupt rulings that no other Court had ever made in like circumstances. When one is cheating, one is not outsmarting the other. Dummy up Edith.
She wansn’t outsmarted or outgunned. She got the DOJ to admit to all the dirty sh*t they did to the guy. The DC Appeals courts sided with her. Sullivan used the power of the bench to do what he wanted, knowing that he wasn’t going to be held accountable. In a courtroom, unless a higher court steps in, the judge holds all the cards.
Everyone wanted Flynn released, Sullivan didn’t. All he had to do was delay this and that. Which he did.
The pardon was given because Sullivan would just delay the case until an new AG could be sworn in and they would put Gen Flynn in prison. Regardless of the evidence.
