43. If Varker isn't indicted at all for any crime, you have yourself a 14th Amendment violation.

It's would be a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment demanding equal treatment under the law. You can't get away with selectively applying laws on one individual and letting another individual off even though the other individual also broke laws.

As far as I know, it looks like it would be a 14th Amendment violation if Maricopa County did not indict Varker.
