It is often in the interest/whim of the executive to decline to
prosecute its own,
even if only to save embarassment, so many of these cases will never see a jury.
That's why you need citizen prosecutors who can bring cases before both grand
and final jury. For example, how many times have you seen a LE vehicle failing
to signal, speeding/reckless, with broken running lights, etc... now
try to criminally
(not administratively) prosecute that just as you might be prosecuted for same.

Didn't the requisite construction of plausible paths from tainted seed just
get covered. So, No! The only guaranty against secret taint is transparency.
Try removing the 'non-' next time.
