No, I'm going to attack the reporter for this overblown hype. Throwing out one count of a multiple count indictment is no big deal. Especially when the reason for throwing it out is that the same charges are made in the remaining counts.
AUUUGH THIS JUDGE IS INSANE! WHEN WILL THEY EVER LEARN! WE ARE AT WAR!!!!
AUUUGH THIS JUDGE IS CORRECT! WHEN WILL THE GOVERNMENT EVER LEARN! WE CANNOT LOSE OUR RIGHTS!!!!
