So gee maybe he didn't do it. No one disputes the facts in the case. He accepted gifts from industries his agency regulates. His defense was that he stiffed the gift givers; he took the gifts and didn't do anything for them. This makes him not guilty of an badly written law.

This is an under reported crisis in America - Congress is writing a flood of legislation and most if it is crap. It's so vague the regulators virtually write the law themselves. Or else it's so full of loop holes that ( given a bright enough lawyer ) it's virtually useless.
