They unanimously said that a clear reading of the law said there was inadequate reason to support ever charging Miller. They said that the law actually fully supported a person making a sworn statement to have the opportunity to correct earlier or later in that statement any facts in question to actually get at the truth. Which is what Miller did in the interview.

The judicial panel did not say that there was a procedural error at the trial or a technicality. The court in fact said that the charge was bogus and never should have been brought as a simple reading of Florida law and prior decisions on what is required for a perjury charge should have been obvious to the prosecutor's office. That office it seems to me had a different agenda than following the law as it is written and as it has long been applied in Florida according to the 5th circuit court findings.
Thak you for setting it straight. Like I said, I didn't follow it much. IF everything that you've stated is true, it sounds like there's a "rotten fish in Denmark"
