When Hearst applied for a presidential pardon in 2000, the US attorney in San Francisco objected in
outraged terms. "I strongly oppose the pardon application filed by Patricia Hearst," the US attorney wrote, "The attitude of Hearst has always been that she is a person above the law and that, based on her wealth and social position, she is not accountable for her conduct, despite the jury's verdict."
Who was that US attorney? You may have heard of him. His name is Robert S. Mueller III."

That's right, Mr. Mueller; hold them accountable regardless of their wealth and social position. I really like this guy but I'm glad my ex didn't have him for her attorney!
