LA Times: Mueller's Record Has Lots of Flaws [View all]

[mucifer]

But at 73, Mueller's record also shows a man of fallible judgment who can be slow to alter his chosen course. At times, he has intimidated or provoked resentment among subordinates. And his tenacious yet linear approach to evaluating evidence led him to fumble the biggest U.S. terrorism investigation since 9/11.

Mueller led a team of four prosecutors in court when the second trial, with 11 defendants, began in October 1980. But after four months, the jury said it was deadlocked, and the judge declared a mistrial. Mueller decided not to ask for a retrial.

Richard B. Mazer, a defense lawyer at both trials, said the government was unable to prove the Hells Angels was a racketeering enterprise. Key prosecution witnesses, he said, seemed unreliable — especially those granted immunity to testify despite having committed violent crimes themselves.

"They made a mess of it," Mazer recalled. "It was an entirely snitch case. It depended entirely on the quality of snitches."

Oy Vey! I hope this investigative piece from the LA Times doesn't prove to be what's coming for our country.
