Cut Extortionists Slack?

I don't know what the big deal is about the alleged forgery in Weber County, the embezzlement in Davis County and extortion in Salt Lake County. These people are all U.S. citizens and, as such, should be allowed at least one free crime -- just as many are willing to allow illegal aliens.
