Should Christina Bobb be held accountable?

We've been hearing that she attested to the fact that Trump had returned all pertinent documents, but now we're focusing on CYA language she added:


"based upon the information that has been provided to me."

I'm sort of thinking, based on this, that there's not much to hold her accountable for legally, despite the moral and ethical problems with representing a criminal client.

Did she satisfy her ethical duty of candor towards the tribunal?

I'd say she did, if this language was included, and she didn't make any further representations about her inquiry.

I'm not a fan, but this stuff makes me think she tried to do her job, while not violating her professional obligations.

And, I also think, that those attacking her for representing Trump should have picked up on this a long time ago.

She insisted that line was included before she signed off. Was it a lawyer protecting her ass? I imagine so. Was she protecting it because she KNEW she was lying? I guess we'll see. I have no idea if she was following orders or not. Not going to guess what was said in private testimony.
I will say that if you willingly go to work for Trump, immediately following a career on OAN where she was a dedicated sycophant, I might hold off on defending her until there's a reason.
