In reply to the discussion: So, No Oscar for Mueller? By Connie Schultz [View all]treestar

they would want to be sure they have good evidence. Like any prosecution, you don't just go ahead because the defendant is "a criminal." You need a specific charge and some degree of confidence that you have enough evidence for a conviction. When you can't pick the jury and know it is biased (Republican Senate) you need even more than enough for proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

Mueller could have been more articulate and animated. After 2 years he owed us a better performance.
