In reply to the discussion: Now we know why DA Brag refused to release letters of resignation [View all]ForgedCrank

disagree with any of what you said, it's just a sad truth that solid evidence is required.
If he submits this with inadequate evidence, he can't just keep going back and doing it over and over again until one finally sticks with a grand jury. I don't think we really know for sure if he is trying to squash this for nefarious reasons, or if it is the evidence issue. It's just worth considering was my only real point. My hope is that he is on the trail, but holding back until he has something solid enough to survive the scrutiny of the courts.
