THE NEGOTIATED SURRENDER
THE NEGOTIATED SURRENDER
The fugitives are surfacing. Two individuals involved in the FIFA corruption scandal are coming out of hiding. They are not seeking redemption. They are seeking a plea deal.
They want to trade information for a lighter sentence. This is not a triumph of justice. It is a transaction. The legal system is being used to facilitate a settlement. The damage to the integrity of global sport is permanent.
These are the mechanics of the deal.
- Justice is a commodity.
- Truth is a bargaining chip.
- The perpetrators are simply renegotiating their losses.
The corruption was always the point. The people in power use the law to protect themselves once they are caught. The cycle continues.
