We all know Merlino and the others are guilty of the charges against them so the backlash against the Feds, jumping to conclusions and general piousness is pretty odd.
Sure, the Feds have to establish this guilt beyond a shadow of a doubt.
I know of guys who have e.g. sexually assaulted women and got away with it - everyone knows they did it - because it couldn't be proven.
Be interesting to see what the reaction would be if say Karrin Vetrano's rapist got off on a technicality and/or because of bungling by investigators.
Just my two cents!
Moe my friend, do you really think the end always justifies the means and should a judge just disregard misconduct from FBI agents, because they are trying to put evil-doers behind bars?
For example, do you disagree with the decision by the courts to reverse a lot of those sentences after it became clear that agent Lindley DeVecchio had that shady relationship with Scarpa?
