There is also a statutory procedure for obtaining medical records that the prosecutor deliberately violated so that he could seize the records before giving notice to Rush or have a hearing, both of which are required.
The Dim's agenda here is the destruction of conservative talk radio, which they know has been very damaging to their cause the last ten years. They want to knock Rush off the air and then go after the rest by bringing back the "fairness" rule. People who don't see this are very, very naive.
A first time offender other than Rush who had already gone into rehab would get probation and diversion into his treatment program, if they would bother to prosecute at all.
"There is also a statutory procedure for obtaining medical records that the prosecutor deliberately violated so that he could seize the records before giving notice to Rush or have a hearing, both of which are required."
Amazing... you found this statutory procedure, yet two judges and Rushs lawyer haven't found it.
If you are refering to "least intrusive means", Black brought this before the Judge and he ruled that the warrent was valid and the records could be opened.
So it WAS considered and it was found to not apply.
What statutory violation are you refering to ?
