Attorney General Jeff Sessions had just decided to review the bungled case against Cliven Bundy and his family when he got some advice from a lawyer who’s been trying to have the Department of Justice get it straight for months.
“It is hoped that after a thorough investigation, that you will fire and thus prevent [FBI agents] from doing further harm to not just the Bundys, but also the public at large. They also should be prosecuted for obstruction of justice, as they are not above the law,” said lawyer Larry Klayman, founder of Freedom Watch and Judicial Watch.
Klayman, who was portrayed on the television show “West Wing,” has been prevented by a judge from joining the Bundys’ defense team...Ian D. Prior, the Justice Department’s principal deputy director of public affairs, said the attorney general “takes this issue very seriously and has personally directed that an expert in the [Justice Department’s] discovery obligations be deployed to examine the case and advise as to the next steps.” ...
Klayman, in his letter to Sessions, charged that federal agents had the Bundys on a “kill list,” mocked their Mormon faith, “and bragged about assaulting and waging a violent invasion of their land, as well as harming them.”
“Myhre and his staff committed crimes in furtherance of attempting to falsely convict Cliven Bundy,” wrote Klayman, who also works behind the scenes at the Cliven Bundy Defense Fund.
“It is incumbent that you also direct the department’s OPR (Office of Professional Responsibility) and [Inspector General] to now conduct an ethics investigation and mete out appropriate strong disciplinary sanctions.”...more
