Ken Boehm believes that justice has been miscarried in the case of former Alaska Senator Ted Stevens. Today the Department of Justice dropped charges of wrongdoing against the Stevens, after a drawn out legal battle concerning financial disclosure. Boehm, chairman of the watchdog group the National Legal and Policy Center, said that because the Justice Department failed in its handling of the case, an elected official is not going to be brought to justice after violating the public trust.
Boehm, a former prosecutor, stated how the Department of Justice sould have done it differently.

If you think the Ted Stevens' case is worth talking about, you should read the $100million civil rights lawsuit against the Democratic Governors of Wyoming and Washington. The Federal District Court in Tacoma described the conspiracy, corruption and persecution as something that could only come from Governor Blagojevich's office.
