An otherwise blameless life

Spending one's time rubbing elbows with dictators, lobbying on behalf of large corporations, backstabbing business partners, colluding with Russians, and generally being a shady sonuvagun.

First used by Judge T.S. Ellis in his explanation for his sentencing of Paul Manafort.
Paul Manafort should only go to jail for 47 months for his crimes which carry a maximum sentence in the decades because he has led an otherwise blameless life.

Circle of Blame

The group of individuals collectively responsible for the failure of a project despite the limited control, if any, the individuals have on its outcome. The group often includes individuals that were not assigned to work on the project, but were given official notice of the projects existence during a meeting, memo, or e-mail.

Commonly, such doomed projects are leaderless or have an ill-suited leader from the start. Ultimately, Executive Management hears of the failure and criticizes the entire group for their incompetence.
