> elements of the charges were not properly met <

I’m going to have to remember that phrase the next time the IRS audits me.

IRA agent: “We charge you with hiding $45 of income.”
Me: “Elements of the charges were not properly met.”
IRA agent: “Well, you’ve got us there. Case dismissed. Have a nice day.”

The Law is completely arbitrary today.

If the perpetrator is the right sort of person, they will get off, because the perpetrator is the real victim.
If the victim is the wrong sort of person, then no crime has been committed because they got what they deserved.

This is actually how Jim Crow justice was handled in the old days of lynching. The races have been reversed, but it’s just as wrong. And, both times, it was the Democrats who made the law whatever they wanted it to be.

Equal protection under the law is gone. Then as it is now Democrats let their thug squad go.

Of course he’d get away with it. Two sets of rules.

You were just “lacking candor”, no “intent”? Proper procedures have been put in place now so that this never happens again?
No problem!
