The person in case one forgot to keep the Judges properly supplied while the person in case two knows a thing or two about getting unethically to a suitable resolution.

Plus the person in case two, as the head of a prosperous corporation, has given large benefits to the community, and thus can be excused a little felonious behaviour.

The prosecutor can still choose whether to prosecute, no?
