      Especially since the propaganda machine is working on the current round of charges.

      I agree. But I’m also not particularly opposed to a hammer being used in place of a screwdriver in this specific instance.

        Since we’re sure we would rather have rule of law Instead of a tyrant, we don’t get to make exceptions or pick when the rules apply. That we barely get a say in the rules is beside the point.

        Anyway my only point here was actually more about how I’m not even sure Boebs was guilty enough of these charges. The prosecutors have a strong incentive to advance only the charges they can make stick, or the whole case could fail.
