In reply to the discussion: Know your BFEE: Siegelman Judge is a big-time War Profiteer [View all]sabrina 1
(62,325 posts)1. There was enough evidence of a conflict of interest in the Siegelman case
with this Bush appointed judge to have caused him to recuse himself, which he refused to do.
The question is why the DOJ, having reviewed the complaints against him, refused to intervene, as they did when far less evidence of irregularities in the Stevens case were presented to them.
The latest on Fuller, referencing divorce papers filed by his wife, doesn't do much to dispel any of the charges re corruption leveled at him in the past.

Fullers ethics called into question in suit
In her complaint Lisa Fuller asks for the following admissions by her husband. They include these topics: extramarital affairs, parenting, driving under the influence of alcohol, withholding documents, payment of expenses for persons with whom he was having sex, spousal abuse, receipt of psychological care or counseling, and addiction to prescription drugs. To my knowledge the answers to those questions had not been filed at the time this column was written.
The current allegations of abuse of office and subpoenas for prescription drugs at numerous pharmacies could possibly bring into question every judgment he has issued and every trial over which he has presided. Keep in mind, of course, that these are yet only allegations which may not ultimately bear out.

One of the worst miscarriages of justice in recent times and the DOJ has ignored it for some reason.
