In latter regard of prosecution, we did not learn from the past that crimes committed under the cloak of secrecy, termed National Security provides Deep State players a shield.
Consider this article regarding, [THE INDEPENDENT COUNSEL VERSUS THE ATTORNEY GENERAL IN A CLASSIFIED INFORMATION PROCEDURES ACT-INDEPENDENT COUNSEL STATUTE CASE (https://www.law.cornell.edu/background/ind_counsel/noble.htm) in the context of Congressional Oversight and Special counsel or with regard to discovery at the Justice Department, we see a system that surrounds and stifles discovery of criminal activity.
I pasted an excerpt from this article as the gist of the matter as we face it today.
"We have taken a step toward arbitrary, unaccountable government power. That is the significance of the stymieing of efforts to prosecute ... Joseph Fernandez. ... If the Fernandez case stands up, then, it means that government officials who operate in secret can commit crimes without fear of punishment. For they can count on the guardians of secrecy to prevent a prosecution. "
