They take the raw Data and make a case against you, not to use in Court, but to create rumor and innuendo, aimed at your Employer, Family, Neighbors, City Officials, Friends (soon to be ex friends), anyone you have contact with that might interact with you, your Bank, Credit Union, Merchants, Doctors, Lawyers, Dentists. Everywhere you go, they are one step behind, with dossier in-hand.
They will make you a Pariah in your Community. If you move away, it starts all over again. They have unlimited resources. They will call on Law Enforcement, the Military, Forest Rangers, whatever it takes to destroy you.
Like the old Skull and Bones admonition: Violate your Oath and you will die Penniless, and without Friends.
They don't give a fuck about the Law.
