This is probably (in my layman’s view) the most clear cut act of deliberate, premeditated, well documented criminality alleged in any of his felony cases. And now it’s as likely as not that it will never go to trial.
This! This was my take too. Of all the criminal cases against him, this one seemed to most solid. Perhaps not the most egregious, where it proven, the punishment might still be minor. But he was given chance after chance after chance to cooperate and comply, and for whatever reason, refused. It was as if he was daring or inviting prosecution, or more likely, just thought he was above the law. While some of the allegations in the other cases are more serious, getting to the conclusions seemed to be more of a stretch.
I get this is complicated by the number of documents in question and the classifications of those documents.
Don't know what Cannon is up to, but it really is starting to seem like she doesn't like the case and is doing everything in her power to make prosecution difficult.
