    It has been a taboo to go after previous politicians, so all prosecutors are trying their best to ensure that they’ve followed every procedure to the letter, which has taken a while.

    We are also dealing with a person with a long history of doing whatever he can to stretch out court cases.

      Wrong. Prosecutors always start at the bottom. Plea deals for future testimony is extremely standard. Don’t let the reddit brigade convince you otherwise.
