1. Public Integrity Section Shows Lack of
Integrity in Siegelman Prosecution
by Roger Shuler for Legal Schnauzer
Jill Simpson says PIN Chief William Welch failed to investigate charges
of misconduct against U.S. District Judge Mark Fuller, who oversaw
the Siegelman case.
PIN holds exclusive jurisdiction over investigations of alleged criminal
misconduct by federal judges, and the agency received a copy of an
affidavit from Missouri attorney Paul Benton Weeks before the
Siegelman case. The affidavit outlined numerous charges of
misconduct against Fuller, but Simpson says Welch never fulfilled his
duty to investigate the matter. And he did not fulfill his duty to turn
over copies of the affidavit to attorneys for Siegelman and
codefendant Richard Scrushy.
