Closure of corruption unit questioned
Sen. DiFi wants to know why the US Attorney's Office has disbanded its public corruption unit.
From the WDN, via AP, via the LAT:
WASHINGTON—Senator Dianne Feinstein is asking Attorney General Michael Mukasey to explain why the public integrity unit in the U.S. attorney's office in Los Angeles has been disbanded.
In a letter to Mukasey Wednesday Feinstein says the decision raises serious questions about whether public corruption cases will be vigorously pursued by the office.
A spokesman for the U.S. attorney in Los Angeles has said the move will actually increase resources for public corruption cases.
