Federal Prosecutor in Stevens Case Commits Suicide

One of the DOJ prosecutors (from the misnamed “Public Integrity” division) who lied and withheld exculpatory evidence in the Ted Stevens trial last year has committed suicide.
While I have sympathy for the man’s family, nonetheless any prosecutor who knowingly withholds exculpatory evidence in order to grease the skids… for a conviction is a criminal and nothing else.
If this man had shown integrity a year ago, he would not have had to undergo the “strain” of the in-house investigation that, frankly, is NOTHING like a real criminal prosecution that he and others put innocent people through all of the time.
If he could not stand the pressure of, frankly, a whitewashed “investigation,” then I doubt he ever could understand the real damage he did to others in his lifetime.
May he rest in peace.
