a 1983 is a deprivation of rights and amounts to a finding of legal implication. it's a far more serious section compared to 241 because it implies both intent and execution.

241 implies conspiracy to commit to a violation of rights which would fit the current argument better than 1983 since there's a lack of motive and evidence against the DOJ for violating his sixth. it could be used as discovery to identify evidence between communications to lead to 1983.

a crime is a crime, regardless of who/what committed it. the government is no exception, however it's not like you can slap cuffs on the entire DOJ. those individuals involved would need to be charged for anything to stick. no different than if an employer killed an employee through neglect. those responsible would be charged, but the company would get off mostly unscathed.
