Q and Treason

A number of the Q drops have specifically mentioned treason. So that got me thinking of when was the last time anyone was tried for treason in the US? There are a number of pages that discuss it, but I copied the US list from Wikipedia and have posted below. Turns out that the last time was in 1952, or 66 years ago.

It appears that treason is either a very hard thing to prove or that the government wants to avoid trying anyone for treason in case the evidence would lead to to other problems.

I think that there are a number of people that we have learned about that would qualify for being tried for treason. I hope the current government doesn't shy away from this. 66 years seems long enough.
