Government lawyers asked a judge Thursday to deny Jeffrey MacDonald's latest attempt at a new trial.

In a response to the motion MacDonald's lawyers filed last month, U.S. attorneys argued a government report that discredits one of MacDonald's investigators is not new evidence and does not call into question the July judgment that denied MacDonald, a former Army captain, a new trial for the 1970 murders of his wife and two daughters on Fort Bragg.

They said the report, which highlights the actions of former FBI investigator Michael Malone, should not change the outcome of the case.

The Office of Inspector General of the Department of Justice released its report on the FBI Laboratory in July. It devotes an entire chapter to Malone, who "repeatedly created scientifically unsupportable lab reports and provided false, misleading, or inaccurate testimony at criminal trials."
