Will ARCI go after Asmussen or O'Neill or Mullins or Lake or anyone else if they have a violation. ARCI set a dangerous precedent and if they dont go after others like they did Dutrow, then they are helping Dutrow's case.

I agree that Sabini should have recused himself and that he has possibly given Dutrow an issue where none should exist. However, the poster's suggestion that I responded to was that the odds were that Dutrow will ultimately prevail which is something that I strongly disagree with, conflict or not.
