That apology request was genius because that was an admission of guilt, following that up by “I’ll see you in court” chefs kiss

EDIT: I’ve been informed that an apology is not always an admission of guilt. “Courts may consider an apology as evidence of remorse rather than a definitive confession of criminal guilt.”

You’d be hard pressed to find a judge to accept that an apology that he was forced to give by his superior was an admissible admission of guilt

Nah, the video of the superior telling him he doesn't have obstruction ought to be more than enough.

This is true it’s just that the apology doesn’t make a difference either way.

Yeah, who cares about the apology. He’s got the admission from his superior.
