Guys, don't just read the headline. Read the article.

A private practice attorney wants documents and the Feds aren't ready to give them to him. Could it have to do with the election? Possibly.

But also consider that the Feds can't comment on ongoing investigations, nor can they comment on investigations that they're using to indict before an indictment.

Let's say they've already made charges and the grand jury simply hasn't convened yet. They can't disclose info on the case because it would undermine the entire operation. You want people to walk on a technicality? Because that's one way to make that happen.

Or let's say there are no charges filed yet but they plan to file them. Same thing applies. They can't give info on it or else again, they jeapordize the case.

Point being, there are other plausible reasons why they can't give out that info yet aside from "they're trying to screw us."

The way it's supposed to work by the book is that information like that isn't made public until after charges are filed and indictments handed down. Anything short of precisely that jeapordizes the case and basically gives the perps a get out of jail free card. You don't have to like it, but facts don't just magically cease to exist because you don't like them.

Take a step back, cool down, and think.
