That would depend entirely on who got hold of his records... I know some who would insist that the charges disappear.... plenty others who would take them further.
::turns briefly to Phlox::
I was angry. At first I was, I couldn't understand why he's do this to me, not after everything. But being here and going through things, and reading them on a PADD.. just the facts, cold, unfeeling... they can be quite some read.
Besides, in some cases I hardly disagree with him myself. But I am still angry. Part of me insists he did this out of a personal spite. That he did it to hurt me more. Which I can't understand when he's been getting so close to my family.
I won't run from anything, I'd simply prefer that nothing be made public. My issues are my own I have no wish to drag everything out again.
I wouldn't be able to cope if I had to open up old wounds.
You do realize he may not have been completely aware of his actions. The tumor, it had to afect his decisons. I've gathered some information as to his unusual behavior shortly before his collapse. He was described to me as being out of character.

I haven't been able to get Captain Archer to discuss anything with me. He won't come down here, and rebuffs all of my questions. I figured there were deeper issues involved.

Your protective nature is showing Commander. The children do not need undue stressors that is true. But don't sell them or yourself short. Humans are capable of coping with almost anything, I have learned in all my time dealing with them, you are not an exception to that rule.
I know.. I've dealt with some tough demons in my time but.. again.. to pull them back up, I wouldn't manage it this time. It's just.. I know it. I can't do it again.
The Captain and I haven't spoken much on the subject. Only slightly in the aftermath, when everything was up in the air. It's a subject we've been avoiding though. I haven't told him as much as I just have you. He also is unaware that my resignation is written and just awaits sending when appropriate to do so.

He threatened the Admiral. Said if I was to be charged he should be too. I'm not sure what his response will be if I resign. He has his own protecive nature.

Ah, Mr. Reed. Right on time...I apologize that I hadn't completed my tasks before you arrived.
Would you like to talk in my office this time?

::turns head to look at office, then back to Phlox::
Your office it is then.

How are you today, Doctor?

::turns head to look at him as speaks::
You sound like you aren't angry at him for his actions or his motivations.
::speaks softly::
I wonder Commander...what would happen to the investigation, and the charges if he didn't survive?
