A federal prosecutor acknowledged yesterday that she withheld evidence that could have helped clear a defendant in a gun case but said it was an inadvertent mistake and implored the chief judge of the US District Court in Massachusetts not to impose sanctions that could derail her career. [More]What, you mean like one of those "willful violations" you lot tried to "derail the careers" of a certain gun shop in Idaho over? Was anyone concerned about "derailing" David Olofson or Wayne Fincher's "careers"?
I just need to shut up now before I write something I'll regret.

A PATTERN of "inadvertent mistakes." Sure.
Withholding exculpatory (innocence-proving) evidence leads -- HAS led -- to barring expert witnesses from hearing the PROSECUTION's evidence and also from being allowed to present counter-evidence, as happened to Len Savage in Olofson.
Savage told JPFO Olofson's lawyer knew nothing about firearms yet was expected to grasp ATF testimony about technical firearm issues. "What next?" Savage asked. "The defendant's LAWYER is told to leave the courtroom?"
"Star Chamber."
I can't help wondering how many times she has cheated someone out of their fair day in court before judge Wolf smoked her out.
The problem is these people do this to move up in the parasitic world. She did this to get a better case win record. And being so she should be tossed out on her butt. We can not afford to have liars and cheats cheating citizens out of their fair day in court for personal gains. She need to be made an example of. Another way to see it is we citizens have our private property taking from us which would be our money. The federal government has a job to do to see that we are giving a just return on that money. Not some liars trying to cheat the foundation of our justice system. D
Omygod!!! As if this was something new.
"F" Troop, (BATFE) does it all of the time. Any prosecutor, especially Fed., can and will do it so as to keep their winning streak alive.
They do not give two shits about the truth or the "law". Locking up and making everyone of us a "felon" or "criminal" is the name of the game.
They have learned their lessons well from, Lenin, Stalin, Mao.... the list of despots can go on and on.
How much longer can or will we put up with this crap???

A legal career should be out of the question for all of them.
One last courtroom appearance, as DEFENDANT. A fine? An ADMONITION? "It'll go on your permanent record," which no one will ever look at. Time in a cell is the treatment if not the cure.
If you see one rat, you have 100 in the walls. The system needs to start making examples of those who make examples of US.
There was this casino. Neon sign said "We never close." Due to an embarrassing tube failure, one night it read "We never lose." How many people wanted to gamble there?
Prosecutors count coupe by prevailing in court; in Harris County Texas they progress based on capital punishment cases won. No surprise here, and it will be no surprise when this witch gets a pass.
Suzanne Sullivan appears to be a protege of former BATFE chief, former U.S. Attorney, and former Plymouth County District Attorney Michael J. Sullivan.
The Verification Word is "crocking". Appropriate.
These prosecutors want to play fast and loose with a defendant's life and then, when exposed for the liars and manipulators they often are, expect to be kissed on a particular portion of their anatomy and allowed to continue as if nothing happened.
A point I observed many years ago; the only persons in a court room who are not sworn to tell the truth and who do most of the talking are lawyers.
You don't see the judge attempting to repair the damage the prosecutor caused by giving all the people she convicted new trials, do you? By holding the prosecutor to a lesser standard that he did the defendants, he's as guilty as the prosecutor is. She gets demoted because she made them both look bad, but never will a lawyer be held to the same standard as a non-lawyer.
I would be disinclined to acquiesce to an arrest, if due process and the Bill of Rights are "more like guidelines, really."
No second chances. People get a life sentence on a technicality missed by the defense. This is no game. Law schools are churning out thousands and thousands of idealistic young lawyers. Start fresh. Toss the spoiled batch and hire them.
This story describes 'a pattern of practices' that should be prosecuted under some aspect of RICO...though the agency can't face RICO charges the individuals can. Two chances, slim and none but perhaps the laws of unintended consequences will come to bear.
