Number two, never get ahead of your client.

She will have plenty to say about the events that you're describing this evening and in the coming days.

As to your broader general question,

I mean, I was a United States attorney for seven and a half years in the Southern District of New York.

I don't remember any grand jury rejection of a matter.

Maybe there were one or two that either I've forgotten or I guess that I've forgotten.

This office in D.C.

and other offices have had, you know, a higher rate of rejection of indictments being sought than anything I can remember.

And when that happens,

The people in charge of those prosecutions and decisions to go to the grand jury and decisions to indict need to take a really, really hard look at their standards, at their ethics, at their responsibilities, take a look in the mirror and decide if you're doing the right thing or not.

This is not a common thing.

It is an incredibly rare thing.

And when you go through the process,

of investigating someone, sometimes publicly, having them have to hire a lawyer, deal with the agita, the stress and the expense of defending yourself, and then it turns out that you have, you know, a BS case that multiple grand juries have rejected, as was true in the case of the New York Attorney General Letitia James, you're doing something wrong.

And you need to knock it off.

That's all I'll say.

Thanks for having me.
