< “I wasn’t asking about the 35,000 sealed filings, I was asking about the resignations - the part where you have already done sampling and reached a conclusion.”
I was referring to the list linked in this thread which is the list of resignations. There is a purported correlation with sealed indictments.
The sampling I have done is of the list linked in this thread. I think it’s pretty clear from the related news links that the reasons for the resignations in the list are not normal resignations. To be more sure of that short of a full up analysis would be to do some statistics.
I figured we were talking past each other. Thanks for explaing. There is no ay to make the correlation before the resigned person is idicted, then we can check if the case was undwr a sealed indictment. This question will "resolve itself" with the passage of time, and that is the only way for it to be resolved.

I didn't get that impression. The list is a mixed bag, from big fish (entire government of Kuwait) to little fish (some baker/CEO in the Bronx who committed suicide).
I hadn;t noticed before I sent my previous question, the spreadsheet itself has some notes about reason. Not for every line, bit for many of them. Sampling from there (the spreadsheet) is pretty easy. Comparing any trends seen there with "the norm" would be tricky.
I go back to "summer of the shark" when I see news of some alarming (click bait) trend. Odd that the "alarming" news omits a credible reference to the normal rate.
