      I’mma roll with No. Read the article they were convicted, which means that the case was NOT dismissed.

          And in the other case, two were acquited, two received a mistrial due to a deadlocked jury, and two pleas guilty to conspiracy.

            And the two who received a mistrial were retried, found guilty, and both sentenced to over 15 years

            e; and that was just the federal charges, there was a state level case that sent a bunch more to prison for a while too
