Can you show me - in the actual law - where it says, "no charges will be filed against people who take classified information and give it back when asked"? #85 | Posted by lfthndthrdsCan you show me - in legal history - a case where the defendent's response to law enforcement wasn't considered in the way law enforcement handled their case? Here ya go dumdum"The legal concept you are describing is known as prosecutorial discretion. Mitigating Circumstances (Immediate Cooperation): If a defendant immediately surrenders, confesses, or provides substantial assistance (helping law enforcement investigate or prosecute others), prosecutors often exercise their discretion favorably. Proactive vs. Reactive Enforcement: Law enforcement agencies use their discretionary authority to allocate investigative resources toward defendants who show high culpability or ongoing criminal effort, while scaling back aggressive tactics for low-risk, fully cooperative individuals."
