The firings of U.S. attorneys will be investigated
Attorney General Michael Mukasey has appointed a prosecutor to pursue possible criminal charges against Republicans who were involved in the controversial firings of U.S. Attorneys. His move follows the leading recommendation of a Justice Department investigation that criticized Bush Administration officials, members of Congress and their aides for the firings, which certainly appear to have been politically motivated. Results of the investigation, which are now public information, singled out the removal of U.S. Attorney David Iglesias of New Mexico — among nine prosecutors who were fired — as the most troubling. Republican political figures in New Mexico, including Senator Pete Domenici and Rep. Heather Wilson, had complained about Iglesias’ handling of voter fraud and public corruption cases. The report concluded that these complaints are what led to his firing.
