[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Career prosecutors have recommended against charging Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) in a long-running sex-trafficking investigation — telling Justice Department superiors that a conviction is unlikely in part because of credibility questions with the two central witnesses, according to people familiar with the matter.”

This is a weird leak that wouldn't originate from DOJ. Almost as if a Gaetz-friendly source is leaking it to make any future prosecution look like it's politically motivated since it would require DOJ "superiors" to overrule the "career prosecutors."[/quote]

Or the whole thing simply could be bogus to begin with.[/quote]

Except that many things point to it not being bogus:
Gaetz asked for a blanket pardon
Joel Greenberg is cooperating with the Feds and has had his sentencing delayed multiple times.
And Greenberg's lawyer said this today

[b]Greenberg's attorney Fritz Scheller reacts: “I have not received any information from the government regarding its decision to abandon its investigation and prosecution [of Matt Gaetz]. Nevertheless, based on my knowledge of the evidence, I would be surprised by such a decision.”[/b]

Aren’t y’all tired of all your allegations fizzling out when it comes to actual prosecution?[/quote]
