Good. If he was doing something worthwhile and useful he probably still would be investigated but then he would have an upswelling of support.

These half measures make him eligible for sacrifice. We need prominent important powerful people to get targeted so they realize that they're not safe any more than the rest of us are. We need them to have some skin in the game and if it means that a couple of these cowards get burned in the learning process then so be it.
