Thus when an LEO tells a lie under oath that is not material to a case, he probably would not be charged with perjury.

But such efforts would be pointless.

That is where your point falls flat. Federal LE officers who commit perjury lose the ability to testify as a LE officer again and thus lose their jobs because they can no longer perform a vital job function. In addition they are at least sometimes, if not often, prosecuted. Of course I am talking perjury not merely lying under oath and there is quite a difference between the two. In my understanding of it, McCabe did not just lie but appears to have committed perjury.<br /><br />As for the word 'testilying', it is applied to LEOs, defendants and witnesses in general and it often depends on only your outlook as to whom you apply it.<br /><br />All the best,<br />Glenn BGlenn Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16677859688487279914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32768818.post-87584730448124607592018-04-20T01:07:40.149-05:002018-04-20T01:07:40.149-05:00Let's be realistic.

Cops routinely commit perjury....so often the term "testilying" was coined to describe how routine it is.....and they are virtually NEVER PUNISHED in any way let alone charged with a crime. The American legal system is not concerned with justice. It exists to serve the state and keep the sheeple in line. If it's hired muscle lie a blind eye is turned to the practice as holding the hired help accountable in no way serve the needs of those in power.Dannoreply@blogger.com
