Violation of Federal Law is the purview of the judicial system (i.e., a judge or jury rules). Charging violation is the purview of the DOJ, yet in this case, the DOJ is only using intimidation (i.e., letters, conjecture, publicity, etc.) instead of indictiments.
This tells me that the DOJ KNOWs their assertions are bullsh!t and they wouldn’t stand a snowball’s chance in a fair court with a fair jury.
Florida is right to ignore the DOJ until they are either legally enjoined or sued by the DOJ....in other words, “DOJ ,-Shut the F@ck UP!”
Looks like the DOJ has been using the standard lawyer’s trick. Write an intimidating letter on the Firm’s letterhead stationary, figuring the potential defendant will settle out of court, i.e a shakedown.
Florida has called their bluff.
Maybe more states will grow a spine.
