About "Indictment Fatigue"

I was listening to Allison Gill on some Serius show, and she said she posted a poll (which I've searched for, but can't find) that basically said (I'm paraphrasing):

Do you have "Indictment Fatigue"?

___No

___Fuck No

...if some people DO have indictment fatigue??? (I certainly don't, let the games begin!)

Is it some new measure of law now that if the public isn't sufficiently interested, the crime goes untried?

Most likely, "indictment fatigue" came out of a rethug think-tank.
They are very good at "leaking" these memes to the media for dissemination.
