... Even if they've paid for laws to be put in place that in large part decriminalize much of their criminal behavior. We've got to find the laws that were in place before that criminalized bribery, and then show that it was their bribery that changed those laws and enforcement that has since let them off the hook to have them answer to these crimes, and use those circumstances to reverse some of those laws, and also prosecute some of the corrupt lawmakers that lead the way to changing these laws as part of the corrupt acts that happened then too.
