Federal Judge Richard Stearns said he appreciated the government acknowledging the error, calling it a “tragic” bureaucratic mistake. But he appeared to rule out holding the government in contempt, noting the violation did not appear intentional. He also questioned whether he has jurisdiction over the case.
“It might not be anybody’s fault, but she was the victim of it,” Stearns said, adding at one point that Lopez Belloza could explore applying for a student visa.
It 100% was someone’s fault, but the federal legal system won’t hold them accountable.
And if state legal systems won’t hold them accountable either, that leaves the system we had before legal systems, and the rich and powerful really doesn’t want the 99.99% of society to come to the conclusion that’s what it takes, because mobs tend to focus on revenge more than actual justice…
But revenge is better than nothing, and nothing is what we’re getting from the people we agreed should have a monopoly on justice and violence.
Oh, there’s going to be accountability all right, but for the wrong reasons. I predict that lawyer is getting his ass fired for telling the truth in Court and making the administration look bad. It may not happen right away, but it’s gonna happen.
