I hope this doesn't come off like everyone's trying to jump all over D's camp, there are alot of constructive comments in this thread that I hope will not be ignored. I will be the first person to say that this entire legal debacle was set off not by a concerned citizen but by someone with a personal vendetta against Dirty D. And as much as I agree it is completely fucked to involve the cops and try to destroy someones livelyhood and possibly take away their freedom over personal bullshit, that shit doesn't matter. It doesn't matter to the cops, it's not going to matter to the judge and it certainly won't matter to the jury.
Once the whistle is blown it doesn't really matter that much who blew the whistle and why. The only thing that matters is was a crime comitted and if so, who knew what and when. If you get caught with your hand in the cookie jar, it doesn't matter if the cookie tasted good or if the kid who ratted you out was a total prick bastard just doing it for his own amusement. Pointing the finger and saying the cookie was bad or the person who tattled on you is fucked up for ratting you out doesn't really help the case when you're sitting in a corner with crumbs on your shirt and chocolate all over your face.
Seriously, the best thing is just to lay low and address the charges in a court of law. If D's found innocent, fucking go wild. Hold a press conference, scream it from the rooftops, ride the positive press wave all the way to the top, I'll cheer you guys on, but doing anything pre-trial is only going to be to D's detriment.
