Do you think she/they deserve any punishment if they're found guilty of what they're charged with?

Do you think someone in her position should be held to a higher standard given that her professional credibility is predicated on legal competence?

Do you think our elected officials, who make the laws, have a moral obligation to understand and obey the laws they make?
