Higher standard indeed. I'd love some follow up on any action taken against this US Attorney.

No action will be taken..
U.S. Attorneys are "officers of the court", and as such are not subject to laws concerning obstruction, creating false evidence, bribery, etc., etc...
Their "conduct" may be referred to the bar and reviewed, at which time they may lose their license to practice law in Texas, but that's about it...

I am not a lawyer, and am not sure how or why officers of the court are protected in this way, but it stinks to high heaven..
If anyone reading this thread has knowledge concerning why the law protects such criminal activity, that would certainly land any other citizen in jail for a very long time, I would welcome their input..

Prosecutors that stoop to such tactics should be spending significant time with "Bubba"....

Whose side is the U.S. Attorney’s Office on?

That's all too obvious, isn't it. Can't wait to read the excuses of the OBL Bushbots.

Willfull US Attorney misconduct, ie hiding evidence, should require the government to pay the legal bills of the abused defendant.

Then try and imprison the SOB US Attorney as well as any and all other attys and staff members also guilty.
