1. Part Two: More Collateral Damage from
the Siegelman Case – Talking with DOJ
Whistleblower, Tamarah Grimes
By By Joan Brunwasser for OpEd News
...We are descendants of great men and women who believed in this
great nation, who gave their lives to secure freedom, life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. Two years ago, I would have been confident
that these things could not happen in the United States of America.
These events occurred under the watch of two presidents and three
attorneys general. This is a civil rights issue. The selective
prosecutions in Montgomery, Alabama have far reaching implications
for every citizen of the United States. A legal precedent has been set,
a precedent that significantly abridges the civil rights and civil liberties
guaranteed to every citizen of the United States by the U.S.
Constitution.Today I passed the civil rights memorial at the Southern
Poverty Law Center here in Montgomery, Alabama.
The memorial is dedicated to the memory and achievements of those
who gave their lives to advance civil rights in this country. It is
breathtaking to behold the glistening water, softly flowing over an
ebony stone upon which is inscribed, "until justice rolls down like
waters and righteousness like a mighty stream."

| Whistle Blower Tamara Grimes was fired from her job. "I have always considered myself to be a moderate Republican,” she said. “I believe in the U.S. Constitution, and that what happened in Montgomery with the Siegelman/Scrushy prosecution is a travesty of justice." |
