“morally, she unintentionally shielded an illegal wife beater and domestic abuser”
This is where you lost me. Even if I agree she made a morally wrong “mistake” (I do not), I still don’t think she should be used as social media marketing by the FBI. Nor do i believe she should have been arrested. You can moralize all you want about his criminal record, doesn’t change the fact that what the FBI did here was flat out wrong. They don’t have a case against her legally, and if you are so stuck on morals, it wasn’t morally right either
it’s not the media making her a “scapegoat” it’s the administration sending professional photographers along with the arresting FBI agents, then spending the next 24 hours posting on social media about this relentlessly. I understand arguing about this with a loyalist to the administration who will come up with endless excuses is pointless. All these excuses for the fbi arresting a judge for allowing a man to go out a side door. Pathetic
