"But while preparing for sentencing in the 2001 case, Sipe’s attorney, Jack Lamar Wolfe, found evidence the U.S. Attorney’s Office had withheld information requested before the trial."

More prosecutorial misconduct? I'm shocked, just shocked! Just how endemic is this behavior in the Department of Justice? Is this standard by any chance? Win at all costs? Jail as many people as possible to make the conviction rate look good?

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.
