Jason Chaffetz: Justice Department losing trust of the American people. Here's why
Fox News
Doing a little light reading of the quarterly report from the Justice Department Office of Inspector General (OIG) last week, I came across an interesting pattern: the DOJ may be the safest place in America to break the law. Because if you work there, your prosecution is most likely to be declined.
These quarterly snapshots offer a glimpse into how the Justice Department polices itself. Why doesn't Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., do a hearing on misconduct within the DOJ? This is the entity charged with enforcing the law against you and me. They choose whether to charge people with crimes or to look the other way. And as I read through the list of investigations against DOJ personnel from the last quarter, I developed a deep concern that Lady Justice often seems to be afraid to prosecute anyone inside the DOJ.More Related News
