Well, there are some jurists out there not in lockstep with the Asscrack Justice Department...praise Jeebus. Seems some impertinent judge wants to know why the prosecution in a "terror" trial was withholding evidence against the defendants. Good for him.
The judge in the first terror trial after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks has ordered an emergency hearing Friday to determine why prosecutors did not turn over evidence that defense attorneys contend would have helped exonerate their clients.
U.S. District Judge Gerald Rosen said that anyone who has "knowledge of this matter, including, but not limited to, information as to why this evidence was not provided to defense counsel" should show up Friday.

The attorneys' request came after federal prosecutors acknowledged last month that they had not turned over an FBI interview with a convicted drug dealer who undercut the testimony of a key government witness. In a December 2000 letter, Milton "Butch" Jones wrote that prosecution witness Youssef Hmimssa told him while they were in jail "how he lied to the FBI, how he fool'd the Secret Service agent on his case."
Wow. A brave man. How can anyone be proud of our country when prosecutors of this type are working. And how can we all live without being in fear of being targeted by similarly unscruplous officials who would have certainly been right at home in Stalins or Hitlers "Courts", and seemed to want to bring those values to all of us. You go, Your Honor.
