>No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act
PLUS: "or on Confession in open Court."
Mug's game (because mugs always play games):
Prime scenario: the individual(s) guilty of treason (in fact). Evidence presented, evidence promised, evidence imagined. The guilty know what they know and do not know what they do not know. Pressure. Make a deal. Deal rejected. Facing strongest hand. Confession induced wrapped in tangled web of deceptions.
Sometimes confession is more valuable when inferred from smaller and seemingly less valuable concessions under questioning. Cross reference across the universe of individuals suspected, known, complicit of treason.
Note, treasonous acts v treasonous "intent".
If no deal, no confession, no way out, then, nothing to lose in facing trial. Facing trial under declarations of innocence for the history books. Truth is that the prosecution of key cabal members will depend on public accounting – both sides – in open court. Need cases before Judge and Jury to validate the existence of the cabal. Accusations not enough. Deals not enough. Declassification not enough.
The most defiant of the guilty will not only maintain innocence but explain how their treasonous acts and intent are really for the good of the country and t[heir] followers. Cabal will not be disappeared, with a few convictions, and so their [cause] will be passed on to potential cabal wannabes.
Two witnesses. Plus.
Witnesses plus confession(s).
In total, confessions, convictions, contempt, concert of birds singing for lesser crimes.
The high mark of high treason?
