Acosta's suggestion that his obligation to protect victims was somehow different 12 years ago, because of changing societal attitudes, than it would be today is ridiculous. The more he defends his conduct the worse he sounds.https://twitter.com/irin/status/1149030493104611328 …

My experience: State courts and federal courts are not two different worlds - they are two different universes. And appeal courts are yet another universe.
I agree: I meant attitudes & gen'l legal structure were not as archaic (at least here in Indy) as Acosta makes things sound. Also I never have negotiated a plea agreement in "secret." If offense has victim, State has to notify.
