Tables to be turned on Justice?

In an ongoing effort to bring justice to the Clinton Justice
Department, the Washington D.C.-based, legal watchdog Judicial
Watch is preparing to question the
Justice Department about official actions the group considers illegal or
unethical during the Clinton administration.

Larry Klayman, Judicial Watch chairman, said the group is currently
in the process of putting ethics complaints and questions in one package
to be forwarded to the Office of Professional Responsibility, a branch
of the Justice Department, within the next 10 days.

“A number of legal actions and ethics complaints are in progress or
in the works to address the rampant politicization of the Justice
Department under Janet Reno and Eric Holder, which has resulted in the
widespread failure of the agency to do its job as the nation’s top law
enforcement agency,” said Klayman.

These actions include, according to Klayman, an attempt to silence
Nolanda Hill, a key witness in the Chinagate scandal; the threatened use
of criminal process to settle civil litigation in the Chinagate scandal;
and the suppression of evidence in civil litigation that is detrimental
to Clinton’s administration.

Currently, Judicial Watch has two civil lawsuits against the Justice
Department. One of the lawsuits is for the Justice Department’s part in
alleged obstruction of justice over the Ruby Ridge shootout, the Waco
disaster and the Olympic bombing cover-ups; the other lawsuit pertains
to Attorney General Janet Reno’s decision not to seek appointment of an
independent counsel in Clinton’s campaign finance scandal.

Klayman says he hopes Clinton and his administration will be found
liable in the civil cases and that integrity will be brought back to the
Justice Department.

“As a once proud alumnus, I am appalled and sickened by the
misconduct of the Justice Department during the Clinton administration,”
Klayman stated.

Altogether, Judicial Watch is involved with 21 cases that are
connected in some way to the White House. Besides the two against the
Justice Department, four of the lawsuits deal with illegal fund-raising
within the White House, two deal with money that Clinton got unfairly
for his legal defense, one deals with the illegal access of Bush and
Reagan administration FBI files, three deal with White House
investigation documentation on Vince Foster and one deals with Ron
Brown’s death. Judicial Watch filed one lawsuit each for witnesses Linda
Tripp and Dolly Kyle Browning in the Clinton sex scandals as well.

Judicial Watch also filed a lawsuit against Internal Revenue Service
and White House officials on behalf of the Western Journalism Center,
parent company of WorldNetDaily, claiming that the company has had to
endure a politically motivated audit and that the group’s First
Amendment rights were violated.
