they fucked up, it was too transparent. now he's gonna be even harder to take down.
this is classic tactics though. you got a person who is a problem, you figure out their sexual weakness and then send in someone who is going to sleep with them, now you can influence them or charge wrongdoing etc. I was listening to some environmentalists talk about someone they were doing environmental activism with. some chick, so the feds wanted to take the group down and send in a guy who is her prototype guy she would fall in love with, he starts dating her, joins the group then starts encouraging them to do acts of violence. so i guess some shit went down, the guy disappears, and the chick is now in jail long term.
bottom line if you are going to stand up to power you have to be ready to deal with some serious bullshit. like MLK said, wrong always on the throne, truth always in the scaffold.
