Bringing it up . But like maybe you trust me enough to stick with me through it. Tonight is one of those nights. I fully concede this is going to start off seeming very, very much out of nowhere. But i swear, it is on the days news and if you bear with me for just a second, i will make it make sense. Okay. One of those nights. Here we go. Ready . Meet this guy.

The prosecutor he wanted fired had just been criticized by the court because when he was n prosecuting that nazi agent, th court said he spoke with basically too much passion, witk too much emotion about that defendant in front of the jury. So the prosecutor had been criticized in court. That was the hook they used for going after him. And you know, thats not exactly a Capital Offense as a prosecutor.
