There is also the fact that the indictment does not accuse every defendant of the same acts or even the same charges. Not all of them are accused of sending classified information to GDMA (Lausman isn't, for example). Not all are accused of destroying documents (Lausman is). There's just too much smoke for there not to be a fire in this case. The only question is, to me, just what will be proven and what evidence will be allowed by the trying judge. Regardless of the final verdict, these men will be tainted as criminals at best and traitors at worst.
Well said redwitch. I will have to read the indictment myself but will take your word for what you say is in it.
