What’s the latest being thrown around? Two words: Witness, and Tampering. Yeah, file that one under really bad idea. Witness tampering is the real deal. (18 U.S.C. § 1512. Tampering with a witness, victim, or an informant. http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/718/usc_sec_18_00001512—-000-.html.) Tyler Hamilton’s lawyers on Monday formally notified federal authorities about a weekend incident they consider to be [...]
