I did not miss this. I followed this closely as it happened. And this "gotcha" right here, that he does not have perfect memory of all of his text messages sent over the two years previous, was the most significant allegation that has been brought to light against him.

And, those text messages revealed nothing of substance, they had nothing to charge with him with. They didn't even attempt to charge him. They didn't even go after the supposed perjury charge because it was weak. If it wasn't weak, they would certainly go after him for it.

Nobody has a perfect memory of all text messages they have sent over the last couple of years. If you think you have a perfect memory of all text messages you have sent over the last couple of years, you don't understand your own memory. Let alone a guy who runs a business with 20+ employees reading a deluge of news articles and whitepapers from when he gets up to when he goes to sleep.

You're being intellectually dishonest, the argument was never that he did not have "perfect memory of all his text messages," it was that in discovery he claimed he searched for and found _no_ text messages pertaining to Sandy Hook, when in fact the evidence accidentally revealed by his own counsel showed that relevant messages did exist, and were retained. A perfunctory search for the term "Sandy Hook" should have turned up those text messages, meaning he either lied about performing the search, or (more likely) lied about the search not turning up anything. Either way, abuse of discovery.
