Follow-up to previous postings related to ongoing investigations into U.S. Attorney firings, see this press release: Conyers, Judiciary Members Ask AG for Documents, Information on Alabama’s Siegelman Case and Allegations of Other Selective Prosecutions
Request from Conyers, Judiciary Members to AG for Documents: “Today, House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers, Jr. (D-MI) and Reps. Linda Sánchez (D-CA), Artur Davis (D-AL), and Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) sent a letter to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, asking him to provide documents and information about several prominent prosecutions and convictions of Democratic officials or operatives across the country. The committee is exploring claims that former Alabama Democratic Governor Don Siegelman’s recent conviction, among others, may have been part of a pattern of selective, political prosecutions by a number of U.S. Attorneys across the country.”
