I wonder if hundreds of cases can now be appealed on the grounds that the FBI has a deliberate practice of refusing to provide exculpatory evidence.
I thought about that, and there’s no way to PROVE that they did. This story says that they have a secret rating for documents. Without a list of those documents defense can’t PROVE that they hid info. And they seemingly can’t be compelled to honestly produce any documentation on any case. If you attempted to compel them, they’d just say “We’ve gotten 4,000,000 requests for exculpatory info, and only a few people have have enough clearance/access to be able to search for that info, so it’ll take us YEARS to be able to confirm/deny that we have anything”. (Hoping that the president will switch back to being a DEM, and they can just ignore all the requests).
