This event involves the US government dropping an appeal to preserve FIFA bribery convictions. Constitutional damage is limited: rule_of_law scores 3.5 (prosecutorial discretion reversal in established corruption case, but within normal DOJ authority), capture scores 2 (potential signal of deprioritization but no evidence of direct influence), corruption scores 3 (relates to corruption enforcement but is procedural retreat not enabling corruption). Enforcement_action mechanism adds 15% but international scope reduces by 15%. Severity modifiers minimal (durability 1.1, precedent 1.1). Final A-score: 2.68. B-score: Layer 1 modest (FIFA corruption has some public interest but case is years old, limited viral potential), Layer 2 shows pattern_match to broader enforcement retreat narratives. Intentionality low (3). Final B-score: 5.69. Both scores well below thresholds. This is routine prosecutorial discretion in a narrow international case with no direct constitutional mechanism. Classification: Noise.
