Sen. Stevens Update-Criminal Investigation Into Prosecutors' Misconduct

The plot thickened. The judge who threw out the case against Sen. Ted Stevens took the rare step of asking that the prosecutors be criminally investigated. In reviewing the botched case, most alarming was the prosecutors’ repeated failure to disclose information that might have helped the defense, despite the sanctity in which we lawyers are taught to hold those obligations. Unbelievable, but consistent with a "win at all cost" approach.
