This involves a popular TV show named 'Justified' and so has a few spoilers I'm sure, so if you fear the sneak peek, don't read.......
OK, the hero of the series is a US Deputy Marshal Raylon Givens. Raylon had been threatened by a criminal boss named Mr. Augustine, a man who had also threatened another crime boss named Sammy.
Raylon went to a location to have a confidential talk with Augustine about the threats made, and Augustine repeated the threats and said he would kill all of Raylon's family as well.
So Raylon exits the locale and passes on the location of Augustine to Sammy, who swoops in with gunmen and they kill Augustine.
Has Raylon violated the law? Has he violated any US Marshall guideline?
To me it looks like an innocent mistake in information security, if viewed from an angle with eyes squinted against a bright sun, kinda sorta.
Were Augustine a real person, the world would no doubt be a better place after said visit from Sammy, and after all isn't that what LEO's are really all about anyway?
What does anyone that knows anything about this sort thing think would happen to Raylon in the real world had this happened for real? (thank God, ahem-*cough*-*cough*, that US Marshal's don't really act like that, ahem-*cough*)
