Letter: Hatch is an embarrassment to rule of law

(Leah Hogsten | The Salt Lake Tribune) The Salt Lake Chamber honors Sen. Orrin G. Hatch as the 39th Giant in Our City, in honor of his service and professional achievement, Saturday, June 9, 2018 at Grand America Hotel.

What has retiring (finally) Sen. Orrin Hatch learned from his years on the Judiciary Committee in the Senate?

If you are a Republican, there is no need for any investigation because you are obviously innocent. If you are a Democrat, there is no need because you are obviously guilty.

Good riddance, sir. You are an embarrassment to rule of jurisprudence.

Gus Wheeler, Salt Lake City
