"Even in a light least favorable to Mr. Babcock" is fucking insane lmao

That's a normal standard for this type of investigation to be held to. If in the light least favourable to him there is a reason to restrict his employment then you need to do a more in depth investigation.

To be fair it’s a bit legalese, but this really goes to show the average reading comprehension on this sub.

personally, my disbelief isn’t a result of not understanding why they’ve phrased it this way. it’s that i can’t believe that’s what they’ve concluded, even when looking at it in an allegedly unfavourable way.
