One was caught red-handed engaged in nepotism. Another, a lawyer no less, admitted to shoplifting at a Marine barracks store. A third leaked sealed court information to the news media. And a fourth engaged in fraud by turning a government garage into a personal repair shop.
Four cases, all solved in the past month, with suspects who cost taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars and significant breaches of public trust.
But these werent your everyday perps.
All were U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) employees who are supposed to catch other criminals while working for the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and U.S. attorneys offices. Instead, they broke the law or violated the rules. And all managed to escape prosecution, despite their proven transgressions.
Recent Justice Department disciplinary files tell an undeniable story.
Under the leadership of Inspector General (IG) Michael Horowitz, DOJs internal watchdog is doing an outstanding job of policing bad conduct inside Americas premier law enforcement agency.
And DOJ is doing a poor job of punishing its own.
In cases closed in the past month, more than a half-dozen FBI, DEA, U.S. attorney and U.S. marshal officials were allowed to retire, do volunteer work, or keep their jobs as they escaped criminal charges that everyday Americans probably would not.
In most instances, the decisions were made by federal prosecutors who work with the very figures impacted by or committing the bad conduct. In local law enforcement, that go-easy phenomenon is known as the thin blue line.
Spokespersons for the Justice Department and FBI did not respond to a request for comment.

Fedzilla’s minions are above the law.
It doesn’t apply to them.
They apply it to US.
The rest is for context.
The rank and file are hopping mad about this!

“Feds gone wild: DOJ’s stunning inability to prosecute its own bad actors..”
Or anybody else for that matter unless you haplessly picked up an eagle feather or tore your mattress tags off.

Wake me up when someone goes to jail...
Glad to see John Solomon putting this out on Hannity’s show.
Trump watches. Now we wait.
Rule of law? What rule of law?
I hate to sound so cynical, but damn..how can ya not be after the headlines of the last decade...particularly that last 2 years.....America is disintegrating.
Solomon does good work
....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait....and wait..... the SURPRISE, Double standard. No jail time!
Until the DOJ and FBI start making examples of the bad behavior that seems to be rampant there, it will only continue. It doesn’t send a good message to the rest of the people who go into work each day, do their jobs, and don’t use their positions to enhance their lifestyle, or put extra money in their pockets. How can you trust working alongside individuals like this, and trust that they’ll have your back? You can’t.
No.
So, if this is the case..slam it shut!! ALL THE CABAL swamp creatures and the she-devil along with Ovomit will skate!! I’ve already lost faith in our TOP law government this only solidifies the cherry on top!! This has gone too long..JUSTICE WILL NEVER BE DONE!! NEVER! Barr is wasting his time. The swamp is an iron wall that can’t be brought down!! Too many freakin BAD ACTORS!! ALL OF D.C. is Satan play area!! It CANNOT BE REDEEMED ...it’s too far gone!! BURN THE FKER DOWN!!
The DOJ and FBI are as corrupt as they get...
NINETY percent never go to trail
They use intrapment...and charge people with so many thing a jury will think..they must be guilty of something
Read Police State by Jerry Spence
The eighty percent who are honest well not rat out the twenty percent
who are crooked
No one will go to jail for trying to get rid of Trump
Another Rip Van Winkle in the making.
Who’s on TV today shooting his mouth off about Trump? None other than McCabe
who should be in jail.
“Federal prosecutors” — only prosecute peasants, not the gilded bureaucrats.
