Alleged Palin "hacker", presidential non-issue, and 2008 UT Men's Hacky Sack Semifinalist David Kernell has more trumped up charges to deal with today.
The brand spanking new superseding indictment alleges that not only did Kernell do all that other stuff (twice!), but also that he committed wire fraud (which was already covered by allegations actually relevant to the case at hand in US Attorneys Weddle and Krotski's original redundant and hamfisted indictment) and destroyed evidence in a Federal investigation (which I'll take seriously about acts committed during Bush II only after I see missing Bush administration emails).
Instead of clearing up the original indictment's redundancies and potentially exploitable defensive loopholes, the USDoJ has only created more with this new and "improved" version. This isn't a surprising development from the legal eagles whose comedy goldmine of a response to the defense's condemnation of the prosecution's inaccurate use of "hacking" has more logical fallacies (And misspellings of Palin's name, for God's sake) than...Christ, I can't even come up with a comparable metaphor right now.
Kernell's trial has been postponed (again!) to October 27, further disrupting my plans to beg for a post-trial interview.

RANTY UPDATE: I mean, seriously! We're calling it hacking because he called it hacking? That's what the DoJ's going with?
Hey, Feds! I rape and murder children every morning! Of course, most people call it "eating a Pop-Tart", but I call it raping and murdering children! Arrest me!
