What? Lawyers hear incriminating evidence about their clients all the time. They are bound to client-confidentiality agreements similar to other professions. Now if the lawyer knows their client is planning to commit FUTURE CRIMES OR FRAUD then that is different. They are required to disclose that in many jurisdictions. Why do commenters spout nonsense as facts with so much confidence? Especially here on RU-vid 😂

Just Resign. If footsteps were heard, the shredders were working overtime. The actual paper trail is probably the genesis of the search, with the smoking gun being the hard drives, laptops and the almost permanent footprint : the servers. What limited info was given, at the time of the searches was, wire fraud, with postal inspectors having a strong presence. It does take time to process, and any items that met up with the shredders, may never be found. Some may be familiar with a Pay to Play scheme, it could be rather extensive, and far reaching as well.

Oakland needs a strong, centered, and logical mayor who will first get rid of homelessness and clean up the streets. Second, provide incentives to bring businesses back to create jobs, and third create a crime task force to stop violent crime. The mass shooting should have never happened if it was organized better with police patrol and checks to prevent people from bringing weapons. Oakland is an anarchy because elected officials are simply there to collect a check. Heck Thao is not even from Oakland, she knows very little about what the city needs. What she thinks the city needs isn't what the city needs.
