Court, but he only served ten days. I think, you know, if we made the penalty, if you deliberately withhold evidence, you serve the length of time in prison that your victim wrongfully spent. That might kind of nip it in the bud. But, yes. I think what happens is judges have a certain expectation of what the lawyers before them will do. And its particularly true of prosecutors. You expect lawyers to always tell the truth, you expect lawyers to always be entirely full square, particularly if youre a government prosecutor. And i think most judges have a hard time believing that the chicanerys actually going on. And so they tend to be less likely to look for it or to infer that something is misconduct.

And after hemming and hawing, he disclosed something that he had not total the district told the district judge. He depart
They have this amazing curiosity about the world. Theres this willingness to follow the threads of interests, not being clear where those threads will take them. In my book i talk about this as a slow hunch, this idea innovation doesnt often come from lightbulb moments. It comes from getting interested in something without a clear idea why youre interested in it and following that interest for sometimes for decades, and just kind of teasing it out until turns into something that is transformative that can change the world. The version of that in the episode on colds, call history of our mastery of cold and artificial refrigeration and airconditioning over the last 100 years.

You can see its below where visual would have gotten it out in Silver Spring. Probably saw the lights of georgetown. But mccauslin had gotten up there. Theres claims to ride up in broad daylight.
