1. More Collateral Damage from the
Siegelman Case – Talking with DOJ
Whistleblower, Tamarah Grimes
By By Joan Brunwasser for OpEd News
...Tamarah Grimes was a paralegal working with the prosecution in
the case against Don Siegelman. She contacted House Judiciary
Committee Chairman Conyers and the DOJ about the prosecutorial
misconduct of Alabama US Attorney Leura Canary and her team. For
her pains, Grimes was chastised, intimidated, and ultimately fired, her
reputation trashed. To add insult to injury, she was denied health
insurance and they're trying to rescind her unemployment benefits.
This is particularly grievous for Grimes because she was the sole
breadwinner in her household and her health insurance policy
covered her disabled son. Grimes was terminated just eight days after
sending a letter to AG Holder, laying out her concerns about the
Siegelman case. Her firing will surely have a stifling effect on any
other DOJ employees contemplating similar actions.

| Whistle Blower Tamara Grimes was fired from her job. “I believe in the U.S. Constitution, and that what happened in Montgomery with the Siegelman/Scrushy prosecution is a travesty of justice." |
