Papadopoulos' sentencing recommendations from Mueller gang


Note: Margot Cleveland is a senior contributor to The Federalist. Cleveland served nearly 25 years as a permanent law clerk to a federal appellate judge and is a former full-time faculty member and current adjunct instructor at the college of business at the University of Notre Dame.

Papadopoulos' wife says it was bad memory.  The thing is, you have to show that someone knows what they are saying is false when they say it.  To say something false is not necessarily lying.  Lying means that you know what the truth is, but you say something deliberately false in order to mislead someone.  On the other hand, if you simply say something false because your memory is faulty... why you could be accused of a crime.

My impression throughout this so-called investigation is that the Federal Government is definitely out of control.  There needs to be massive reform here.  Anybody the Feds choose can be put in jail anytime they want.  The laws are way the hell too general, and give way too much damned leeway for an unscrupulous prosecutor to abuse the system.
