Conduct (aiding in mishap investigations) appears not to have been covered in prior regs. But it should have been; i.e. was a loophole. Lor copied the State Department; hardly hiding something.

And...Clinton's granting of approvals, now that the regs require them, for related rocket help tends to remove the sense that there was anything against national policy about the conduct to begin with.

So Justice is left with conduct which did not explicitly require prior approval under the regs at the time (due to Government stupidity), and which Clinton has in effect indicated he would have given anyway. So its what, a technical violation of a not then existing technical requirement? Not much of a criminal case if you ask me.

Does this worry me? Like I said before.

Nope.
