I don't see how anyone can read the OP and think KD has a case for keeping his money. Based on his owns words, I think he should be going to prison. Compare what he did to what Martha Stewart did. Do we know where he lives? American DA's freakin' love to take on cases that will be big in the news.
what exactly did martha stewart do? it sure as shit wasn't commit any actual crimes.
She knowing profited from the illegal gained information and then lied about it. No way in hell she should have gone to jail though. Her real crime was in being a promotion worthy prosecution.
I just noticed that Kevin lives in Chicago. So the attorney would be the very ambitious Anita Alvarez.
