A trial at this point is fairly doubtful. This has exploded in his face. If by some chance it does go, Fong won't be the prosecutor. The best he can probably hope for is to hold on to his license. Which is also unlikely. I doubt he will be prosecuted which is what he deserves.
I think the conventional wisdom is wrong and there will be a trial. All the punditry and bar complaints etc. will be seen as inteferrence in local affairs.
