18 USC 4: Felony Misprision:
"having knowledge of the actual commission of a felony cognizable by a [fed] court, conceals & does not as soon as possible make [it] known to some judge or other person in civil or military authority."

@NatashaBertrand 3/ It's a sad day.
I knew John Eisenberg & Steve Engel from the Yale Law Journal.
I organized a panel with Michael Ellis, a YLS 3L doing solid work... on the history of elected prosecutors & their ethical challenges.

Used for this.
@NatashaBertrand 4/ There should be soul searching at many law schools and legal institutions for the ethical/professional disaster we've created.

It seems to me that my alma mater @YaleLawSch - a school I loved and to which I owe so much - keeps finding itself in the middle of these disasters.
