2. How the Feds Imprison the Innocent
by By Paul Craig Roberts for OpEd News
...Crown Publishing, a division of Random House, has announced a
second printing of the second edition of The Tyranny of Good
Intentions, and the noted civil libertarian and defense attorney,
Harvey Silverglate, has just published a book covering many of the
same legal cases and vetting our conclusion that in the United States
every American is in grave danger from unscrupulous prosecutors
who target the innocent.
....Silverglate shows that many of the plea bargains create precedents
that prosecutors can exploit to trap more innocent victims.
The reader by now is asking why prosecutors would waste time on the
innocent when there are so many real crimes. Silverglate provides
conclusive answers. For example, politically ambitious federal
prosecutors, such as Rudy Giuliani and William Weld, pick high profile
targets to frame in order to build name recognition for political
careers. Giuliani picked Michael Milken and Leona Helmsley. Weld
picked Boston mayor Kevin White. Giuliani went on to be Mayor of
New York and a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination.
Weld went on to be a two-term governor of Massachusetts. Leura
Canary, perhaps at the urging of Karl Rove, picked Alabama
Governor Don Siegelman. Michael J. Sullivan picked Thomas
Finneran, Speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives,
and so on.
