It appears that they bungled the secret search, claimed that his kid'spanish homework were "spanish documents" and decided he was a criminal because he represented criminals.
Now I'm no fan of attorneys, especially criminal defense attorneys, but the bottom line is that we really do need them if our government is going to make these kind of value judgments while violating our Constitutional Rights.
Patriot Act II would allow SAC's to make the call on whether a secret search would be conducted - removing any judiical oversight prior to the search. Do we really want to allow this?
I guess a better question would be do we really want risk allowing this kind of power under the control of future Administrations/DOJ's/FBI/CIA/DHS? (Dept. of Homeland Security)
