Arizona may bring charges against Eric Holder over ‘Fast and Furious’

From his mouth to God's ears.

In 1976, a freed defendant from a murder conviction sued the prosecutor who had sent him away. The prosecutor, upon learning of mistakes made at trial, went to bat for the imprisoned man and helped get him released. Curiously, the man sued and the resultant case is used by prosecutors for immunity. Pachtman v. Imbler (1976) never should have made it to the Supreme Court because Imbler was, incredibly, a good guy. Since then, the bad guys have piggy backed and claimed absolute immunity. (Gee - I wonder why the govt chose to take that case to the Supremes???)

Time for a test case in Arizona, because immunity flows to prosecutors "doing govt work". Anyone who calls Fast and Furious "government work" might find themselves on the same side as Burke and Hurley - accomplices to murder. They also permitted felons to buy guns in violation of 18 USC 922 without authority. No judge can waive the law passed by Congress - a pardon or a conviction overturn gets the felon his gun rights back - Not Emory Hurley nor Dennis Burke. If anyone hears the words "absolute immunity", be sure to correct them - it flows to those doing government work - legal work.

There's been an ongoing pissing contest between the DOJ and the State of Arizona for some time now.
Hopefully it comes to a head and is solved. Holder and others need to do some hard time in an Arizona prison.

Maybe we could open the old Yuma territorial just for them?

Not just DOJ, but the Administration in general. Arizona's illegal immigration law really pissed them off.

I'll bring popcorn.
