Q-Do you think this was going to be litigated in this setting?
Me: Hell yes!! This guy was caught red-handed spying on the US for the Muslim Brotherhood and perhaps for the DS and Hussein. Several Dems were complicit, such as DWS. I expected that the server and the laptop would be examined, and that an indictment would issue against Awan, DWS and multiple other people. Awan, jail for the rest of his life, give him a chance to sing about the whole operation and maybe be sent back to Pakistan a hero.
Handling it otherwise really pisses me off!
Right behind you. Mad as heck.
Let’s think about this. Sounds like the Anwan family has it all, too. So this guy takes a hit for the team and gets himself a sweet deal. An unspoken part of that deal (is that legal? I remember doing deals where we offered to lower the time inconsideration for testifying against another defendant but of course I only remember those that were written into the sentencing order) may be that Awan testifies against all those other louts.
I can’t think of another court that would have jurisdiction. I really have to do some digging to see if civilians can be tried in military courts (Oh God, please let that be true! Mil courts move a lot faster and don’t allow a lot that civilian courts do) for treason.
but, first that other garden has got to go in. Obviously, Q lives somewhere that is tamed and watered. Lucky guy(s)!
Trust the plan. I seriously doubt that this is the last that Awan will see of the justice system.
US Marshals led this guy out and whisked him away....not exactly normal for bank fraud and getting away with treason. More than likely this guy gave up all he was doing and who he was doing if for in the US and abroad and is a protected witness guarded by military, if where his sentence is to be carried out is true.
