Wait, what? Are you saying that when those in positions of power commit ethics violations that there is no correction available? Damn
Or are you saying that there are methods available but the dummies are to weak to utilize the methods?
I’m legit asking for clarity. Thanks

I'm saying no crime, period. Civil penalties are available, but impractical. The "on paper" penalties for ethical violations appear stiff (lose license to practice), but in practice are weak - the swamp protects its own.

Look at the ethical violations in Congress, at worst they get a lecture and a mark on their permanent record. Similar for lawyers in general, and prosecutors can get away with 100 times more than any other lawyer. It's all "self policed," and the public is none the wiser.
