The dialect of the judgment relies on upon what is offered and not the settled standard of law.
"While I will dependably guard the legal, it will be hard to offer the best of barrier for a legal officer whose direct and way of life proposes confirmation of debasement.

"I am not in position to say these honorable men did or did not do what they were blamed for. I am likewise not in a position to say the cash recouped was theirs or planted.
"In any case, I am in a position to be concerned with respect to why it must be them that cash was planted on. I am concerned that we talk a greater amount of the procedure used to let the Nigerian open realize that all is not well. Have we as a whole not concurred that all is not well?"
