5. It's all an empty gesture intended to placate and blame shift...

1) As far as I can tell, no exception under which the secrecy of grand jury testimony is pierced applies here

2) Grand jury testimony is limited and focuses on providing grounds for the indictment(s) sought. They were not out to indict clients, so evidence identifying or related to specific clients isn't likely to be there.

3) This request for redaction makes it an even emptier gesture. In the incredibly unlikely case that the motion to release were granted, this is a backstop to ensure no client information (unlikely to be there at all anyway) is released.

They are banking that the motion will be denied. The company line will then be that they tried to release "it all" (utter bullshit) but the corrupt judiciary, not the regime, is keeping it secret.
