evilweasel posted:Basically Switzerland can prosecute him themselves, and if they then botch it the Swiss can't extradite. It seems unlikely that Swiss prosecutors would be too interested in doing Blatter any favours while the Americans are busy burning FIFA to the ground. ocrumsprug fucked around with this message at 17:48 on May 28, 2015 |

Malloreon posted:I vaguely recall someone saying that the DOJ can label FIFA a criminal organization, which will legally forbid any US company (advertiser) from doing any business with FIFA. It would probably sour the good will they have generated so far. People want to see Blatter and everyone involved with FIFA burnt at the stake, but I doubt they want FIFA's corpse flung from the battlements. At the end of the day, you want a soccer body that can carry on business, just with less crooks running it.

KennyTheFish posted:Could a labeling be used to replace FIFA? If a deal is done with the major Soccer nations to have a replacement for FIFA ready to announce at the same time? It sounds like not a lot of people are happy with the way things are run at the moment. It probably could be, though the various soccer federations could just make it happen on their own if they wanted to (they don't since they are living high on the hog of FIFA's corruption.) However when the dust settles it is likely that the un-incarcerated employees of FIFA will be, like four secretaries and the one executive assistant that everyone was hoping would be the scapegoat, should the cops ever catch on. It will be like a fresh start except FIFA already has office leases.

I have a hard time imagining anyone in Justice hates their career enough to go after the NFL.
