A career employee in the Voting Section of Justice’s Civil Rights Division has confessed to committing perjury, sources say. The employee, Stephanie Celandine Gyamfi, reportedly told investigators from the Inspector General’s Office that she perjured herself during an inquiry into Justice Department leaks during the previous administration. Despite the admission, she has not been fired for criminal malfeasance. Indeed, it appears she has not been disciplined in any meaningful way at all.
Ms. Gyamfi made no secret of her hatred of conservatives and Republicans when I worked in the Voting Section from 2001 to 2002. Later, when I moved to the Civil Rights Division’s front office, she had a difficult time hiding her contempt any time she was forced to meet with the political leadership. In revelations now known throughout the Voting Section, she apparently went beyond hatred and resorted to flagrantly violating Justice Department confidentiality requirements and ethical obligations. It is now common knowledge in the Section that she lied about her actions to Inspector General investigators and was caught in the lie with e-mail documentation. Ahh, it’s always the cover-up.
The genesis of Ms. Gyamfi’s perjury is apparently rooted in political attacks on the Bush Justice Department. Throughout 2005-2007, numerous attorney-client privileged documents, confidential personnel information, and other sensitive legal materials were leaked from inside the Voting Section to the Washington Post and various left-wing blogs.

Although not widely known, the Inspector General’s Office is in the midst of another investigation of the Civil Rights Division. This time, the IG is probing allegations that, among other things, certain career attorneys in the Voting Section who are perceived as having cooperated with the prior administration have been subjected to withering harassment and retaliation for not toeing the liberal line on case selection and enforcement policy decisions.

BREAKING: Confessions of Perjury Inside DOJ
by J. Christian Adams

Today, PJ Media breaks a bombshell that an employee in the federal Department of Justice (DOJ) Voting Section, where I used to work, has admitted to lying three times under penalty of perjury during a DOJ Inspector General’s investigation.

No matter your political stripes, this story is a tragedy, both for the people involved as well as the institutions most Americans once assumed they could trust. And what of the people managing the Voting Section, such as Assistant Attorney General Tom Perez? What of Deputy Assistant Attorney General Matthew Colangelo, formerly of the NAACP? He oversees these employees. What has he done in response?
We can speculate: probably nothing, if they are following Holder’s lead.
The manipulations of Holder’s DOJ range from the mundane to the sinister. On the mundane side, I watched Holder tell Rep. Frank Wolf (R-Va.) in a hearing that the DOJ had not provided preferential treatment in Freedom of Information Act requests to favored left wing groups, or failed to respond to FOIA requests from conservatives and Republicans. Holder explained the delay in responding to requests by conservatives as the result of those requests being contained in more complicated files, which I knew to be false.
The government lies to us? Really?
BTTT
These vermin CAN'T be fired?
Yeah, and the government did not know of the probability of an attack on Pearl Harbor either......
Jail her.
Wonder if the Texas AG knows about this?
“Jail her.”
Along with Obama, Holder and Perez.
It’s unbelievable that these guys are still in power.
Their end justifies their means. Don’t ya know ??
They can’t begin to imagine the rage I have for the DOJ. Justice ? What a friggn’ joke. Is there no law ?
Hypocrisy, lies and gaffes are an hourly thing with this regime.
For Democrats, lying and cheating in elections is just tried and true tactics. Why is it that they have to lie and cheat to make sure they get government jobs?
In departments like Dept. of Justice and Dept. of State, when they say career _____ they mean non-political appointees. It doesn’t mean they are apolitical, but it implies they didn’t just come in with the current administration. They can still be fired.
Absolutely none until we get rid of these tyrants. They actually believe the Voting Rights Act applies only to Blacks! Whites whose rights have been violated by Blacks or others need not apply. The current DOJ makes a mockery of American values.
Anyone have a picture of her? I know her husband is from Ghana. I’m sure she is well indoctrinated.
I keep in my mind that it is people in the government doing evil and lying. I don’t believe that ‘government’ as a concept for people interaction is such. I realize that my thoughts might be nit-picking the real world but it is necessary to consider that people make bad government and people use otherwise good intentions e.g. USA Constitution to cover their personal evil behavior. I don’t like that any person for personal reasons/purposes can affront another person and hide behind a ‘government’ job.
