		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;She sounds like a true witch on the transcripts, but how does she end with criminal culpability? Even if it was her idea - she personally had no ability to execute. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt; Because in a conspiracy case it is not unusual for one person, let’s call her the mastermind
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Think, mab boss ordering a hit. The target gets wacked while the boss is sitting in the social club playing cards and sipping espresso.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;You’re absolutely right in principle, lhp.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagotribune.com/services/newspaper/printedition/sunday/chi-blago-bd04nov04,0,6240004.story&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;However&lt;/a&gt; … &lt;a href=&quot;http://newsblogs.chicagotribune.com/clout_st/2007/12/ex-gov-thompson.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;and furthermore&lt;/a&gt;, in addition to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ilcampaign.org/press/news/illinois/2005/2005-5-20FirstLady.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the well-known&lt;/a&gt; … and also the fact that by &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Mell&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;upbringing&lt;/a&gt; Patty’s not likely to be a b&amp;b sort of wife.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Still, the kids are quite young. There’ll be more pressure on him overall because of that, but she might find herself in the nasty spot of having to support in some degree any part of a bargain that would involve her father, partly because of her own liabilities. And that leads right back to LaSalle St.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The things that could be done with that pressure just gave me a shiver of anticipation.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
