Amicus Brief Participation Time! (Patreon)

It is Amicus Brief Participation Time! Right now we are working on the part of the amicus brief called the Interest of Amicus Curiae. That is a fancy way of saying "This is why I have an interest in this case, and this is why you should listen to me." 

So, we want to know: Why do you care about the General Flynn case? Why do you care whether or not the court lets the DoJ drop charges against Flynn after he pled guilty twice? Why should the court listen to what Opening Arguments thinks about this case?

The prosecutor is the most powerful agent within the criminal justice system and "prosecutorial discretion" is the most powerful unchecked force. Prosecutors alone decide who gets charged, whether to offer a plea bargain, and whether to dismiss charges, and these decisions are normally made outside the realm of the adversarial legal process. In this case, political appointees of DOJ have stepped in to contradict their line prosecutors by seeking to dismiss charges against a politically connected defendant despite that defendant having twice pleaded guilty to the charged offense. This appears to be a gross abuse of prosecutorial discretion in an effort to allow a politically connected individual to break the law without legal consequence.

Because in a world where there is blantant “consequences for thee, but not for me”, it is important that rules and laws be the same for all and people should be held to account no matter who their friends are. The riots and protests happening outside our windows are testament to this multi-tiered justice system. Flynn pled guilty, and now wants a mulligan because his friend in high places feels more entitled than ever to put his thumb on the scale of justice.
