Yep!
The law never stopped the Rats before!
Remember the whole Lautenberg/Torricelli mess.
The law was blatantly ignored! and nothing happened to them.
The rats are experts at cleaning up little errors(no one can lie as well as them) like this one, they will kill anyone they have to or threaten anyone or do anything necessary to protect their Manchurian.
Big money has already been spent and those who have already invested always want a return, not a loss.
