When it comes to the racketeering, I think that's more difficult for the government. There are a lot more moving pieces that you have to fit into place. And if one moving piece doesn't fit correctly, the whole structure can fall.

And the defense that they were making, I just didn't think really worked out. And it just seems like an easy layup for the government and the way they're presenting this case. So I don't see an argument to combat what you're articulating. And I agree, the easily laid out facts that make out that charge.

Yeah. And so I think for her health, the health of her child, the health of her family, I think the government's doing the right thing by getting her in and out of here as quickly as possible. So it's not really a choice in terms of strategy here. But if it was a choice and it was strategy, I think it's good in the sense of you set the tone and the tenor of the case very quickly.
