That was the worst thing to me. I think most of the overreaction was just because of how disgusting it seemed to people to film an infirm lady in her nursing home bed, but I think the police and prosecutors actions, stretching (to say the least) to apply a felony charge to misdemeanor actions was driven in part because of the political importance of the victim. Nobody involved with that came out looking good, the blogger, "co-conspirators", the police, or prosecutor. All of them look sleazy.
