...everyone feels somewhere in his heart that these nasty people ought to be in jail, and very likely that is where they will be within a year or so, unless some judge has courage enough, despite inevitable suspicions of bribery, to dismiss the indictment or to reverse the conviction that a jury trial will probably produce. Just as with Al Capone in the Thirties, the Federal law enforcement authorities have not been able to prove a case against the defendants for major crimes and have had to resort to irrelevant charges like doubtful income tax evasion or "conspiracy to obstruct...
Organized crime, regrettably, is often efficient enough to avoid prosecution when it does something significantly heinous. It would be nice if big-time criminals could be locked up just because everyone knew they were big-time criminals. The Anglo-American legal system, however, doesn't work that way.

Yet, if the students themselves seem to prefer homogenity to heterogeneity, Pitt's argument loses its validity. Winn asserts that Penn has "less conformity than you'll find in other Ivy colleges," but he nearly defeats his own point when he says...
