Zero Arrests In Criminal Fraud Bribery Tax Evasion Open And Shut Case - Utah

Merit Medical's owners, and many many others will be able to commit dozens of crimes, and when caught, get to pay a fine. Bribery, fraud, tax evasion, and god knows what else. The Prosecutor got tired of investigating.....

Why did they not have to go to jail like regular folk?

Because they are rich.

If you don't like the CHOP in Seattle, maybe you like this insane crap where rich white folk get to pay fines, and not get arrested, but if you are black and steal quarters from a laundromat, you get years in jail.

We can't even pretend to have "equal justice" here in Amerikka.

Rich people pay fines, and at worst get house arrest, or Epstein type work release. Us? We go to the slammer.
