Two wrongs make a right? So if Tony and Enterprise friends are targeting scams, the laws are suspended, blanket immunity granted for illegal conduct, they may become scams themselves? There's an ancient Latin proverb that addresses this proposition:

Nemo auditur suam propriam turpitudinem allegans. "He who alleges his own turpitude is never heard."

By the way, the Doctrine of Nemo Auditur has been upheld and affirmed by the United States Supreme Court:

"No man may take advantage of his own wrong. Deeply rooted in our jurisprudence this principle has been applied in many diverse classes of cases by both law and equity courts." Glus v. Brooklyn Eastern District Terminal, 359 U.S. 231, 232-33, 3 L. Ed. 2d 770, 79 S. Ct. 760 (1959).

Not least, it seems that a jury understood the concept very well also, never wise to underestimate the perception and wisdom of a jury now is it.

Nice try though.

Who actually suffered serious losses, except the people who failed to understand that the companies Tony went after really WERE scams?
