Kangaroo logic, jumping to that conclusion, isn't it? I think everyone who read this OP was instantly aware that it was a strange set of pairings, just what does it prove or mean though? Nothing much.Frank, it seems the ideologues have failed to notice this little peculiarity
We have judges in place to often make just such decisions at lower levels.FIRST, the legal system must prove the accused is "taking from the innocent"
I would suggest the article would have done us much more of a favor in describing more of the particular crimes, the evidence and previous circumstances of Sila Luis. Somebody, apparently just one person, that has received $45 million in Medicare funds [? how is that possible] from the government and dispatches it, we do not know from the article how quickly, but maybe with the mountain of evidence and the penchant to spend every thing down to only $2Million now a judge could prudently freeze the funds? And I agree with Bucky, the criminals at this level are smart enough to use our funds first.
I would say this is a case where a judge can look at the material presented as evidence and decide whether it is best to protect the remaining amount of potential tax payer funds and, if the case is pretty open and shut, let the person deal with a public defender. There are consequences to committing crimes.
