They let the one with all the money off and the guy who had less money got charged. <br /><br />Both of then out to have been charged, but then, Wright might have made the deal to turn on Harper and that would not have been a good thing fro the perspective of the RCMP. <br /><br />In the end, justice prevailed and Duffy did not go to jail. You do have to wonder which Con cabinet minister went and had a chat with Paulson. The whole matter stank then and it still has a stench to it. Perhaps Paulson was just doing a favour for his boss Harper. So much for justice. <br /><br />I believe Paulson is still in his job because they don't have anyone to replace him with.

Duffy didn't have a lot of friends by this time and he was an easy target to dump the whole sorry mess on.

The message seemed to be that, if Wright was charged, he would implicate Harper as the controlling mind of the whole business.<br /><br />The RCMP had to take Wright off the hook. That was the only way to take the prime minister, the Tory Senate leadership, top PMO aides and a couple of senior party officials off the hook. They didn't need Wright's cooperation to nail Duffy. They had his whole story long before they decided to give Wright a pass.<br /><br />This story is as convoluted and nonsensical as the whole theory of the "immaculate bribe." Seen in the context of a prosecution that brought a staggering 31-counts against Duffy and his acquittal on all 31 charges and the political dimension of this prosecution is ridiculously obvious. The RCMP collaborated in a political show trial. <br /><br />Vaillancourt saw straight through it. He said that there was a crime but the culpable parties were never charged or brought to trial. Even after that they never were. The RCMP, its real job done, simply closed the file.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-71857371391703708202016-11-12T11:42:57.270-05:002016-11-12T11:42:57.270-05:00What is stopping Wright from being charged now?What is stopping Wright from being charged now?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-5419990873284161692016-11-12T10:47:01.923-05:002016-11-12T10:47:01.923-05:00So the Horsesassmen charged a guy they knew was i...So the Horsesassmen charged a guy they knew was innocent so they didn't have to charge a guy they knew was guilty.
