My point being there will be be no prosecution, ergo no jury.

Do you REALLY think an accomplished sting operator goes for even bigger fish on a whim, with no legal direction?

Like he just got lazy or stupid or something once he accomplished, publicly, his first goal?

Hopefully he can drop what he’s got prior to the state of the bozo address tomorrow.

He clearly didn't consult with counsel prior to his last round of documentaries. If he had, he wouldn't have recorded conversations in states requiring "two or all party" consent. It's not even my area of practice, and I was WELL aware of the legal limitations of surreptitious recordings of in-person conversations. I would hope that he would have learned his lesson, but this doesn't seem likely as he's already been arrested.
