All Bush’ fault. All hail The One, The Only, Baraqas Hussein Obama, ruler of the universe...
Why should the feds get anything even if the company was liable ?
This judge needs to start issuing bench warrants for arrests.
“Mr. Holder will no longer have the shield of the Attorney General and the Department of Justice to protect him from congressional, grand jury, or other subpoenas. The next question is: Which criminal lawyer will he hire to defend him and how soon?”
The story is not specific, but it seems the fire started from some OTHER cause, but this company was framed and blamed, because they are in the “evil” logging business.
Judge Morrison C. England Jr. ordered the entire judiciary recused from a case another judge called “egregious” and “reprehensible”
This is framed by the defendant (Sierra Pacific), as was the press release, but this 100 page pdf has much more information, and answers many questions asked here.
The US sued as a property owner. It owned the land, its trees were burnt, and it blamed Sierra Pacific for the loss. The government won at trial, and Sierra Pacific has been paying damages in accordance with the federal court's order.
Turns out the prosecutor was corrupt. Quelle surprise. Many of them are. The legal process is competitive sport to them, and it isn't cheating if they don't get caught. Not to mention that there is plenty of room within the rules, to mislead the court.
Imagine that, Holder’s justice department behaving unethically. I’m shocked. /s
What is really shocking is an attorney who would quit this mess on principles and a black judge in California that is not in the can for obola and willing to buck they corrupt system.
Freepers have known for a long time, just by casual observance the DOJ under Holder and the entire obama administration have made corruption the fabric of DOJ, as well as every Federal Agency.
Follow the money, the Just-Us Dept, is the tip of the iceburg, of all the Judges in the U.S. only one has now taken a stand, I hope he survives, so others may do the same, would it not be great if courage, truth and honesty became the core of our judicial system.
The Justus department is run by a bunch of looters.
I am not surprised one darn bit. I wonder what the political inclinations of Sierra Pacific are...if any?
This is a naked money and power grab by bored useless eaters/AKA Federale employees/ with an axe to grind against a large corporation. Imagine the bragging they could do at liberal cocktail parties
Operation Enduring Corruption.
Stunning federal corruption case moving forward with almost no media attention
...Corrupt federal prosecutors presenting false evidence in order to shake down a blameless corporation and bring in tens of millions of dollars seems like a pretty dramatic story. Especially when former prosecutors support the charge and a chief judge acts on the allegations and takes dramatic action. Yet the media silence is deafening.
Eric Holder’s Justice Department is implicated in a dramatic and shocking case of alleged corruption that is so bad that the Chief Judge of the Eastern District of California has taken what can rightly be called the “nuclear option” and recused all the judges in the district from the casebecause they may have been defrauded by the DoJ prosecutors.
