On the one hand, I do truly see what you mean. But to run away from my cause, regardless of the corrupt bureaucrats that stand in my way, is just against everything that I am. I might be serving a bunch of corporate pigs, but at the end of the day, I'm only doing my job with one thing in mind, the people. I know what your stance on the Navy is Mister Yoshida, but I firmly believe everything we do in life has a consequence and reward. In my case, serving the navy lets me help people, but I am an occasional tool to an ulterior motive that even I have trouble identifying. I might be one of the only people that takes the oath I swore seriously and if that truly is the case, so be it. I can't shift myself onto the other side of the law, sure the reward would be true freedom to pursue the call of an idealist, but I wouldn't be able to help people or protect our House as openly as I can right now, I'd be a name on a hit-list and a danger to everyone even remotely connected to me, that's something I simply won't consent to regardless of the personal detriment.
I can't run away from my true job, as easy as it may be to just condemn the entirety of the naval forces for the responses of a few towards me. The trial against me is in deadlock, call it pure courtroom theatrics of over-zealous advocates, I call it a pain. I'm only going to ask for one favor and one favor alone, which in return I will pay back by granting you a proportionate favor in the future. The best way to void the prosecution's charges is to prove them guilty of a crime, I think from that you can draw an assumption as to what I need you to find out to void this purely political backlash.
