Original Note:
The status of the accused or perceived triviality of a crime should not be relevant. Indeed anyone should be at risk of a similar fate if they break the law. https://nycourts.gov/judges/cji/2-PenalLaw/175/175.10.pdf Politicising an outcome of a criminal trial is what likely leads to damage to the "public's faith" in any legal system.
