Althouse: Aggressive prosecution #2: Internet activist driven to suicide.

Althouse: Aggressive prosecution #2: Internet activist driven to suicide.: "To say he didn't want to be a felon is to express a wish about the past. And it's a wish that wasn't even true. Swartz wanted to be a felon who eludes prosecution. Who gets that wish in a system of law? The intelligent, educated, nice-looking, good guy with lovely friends and family? The person who credibly threatens self-murder? The activist capable of articulating why the crime he committed should not be a crime? "
