The Soon Coming Judgment Of God Upon America and How To Escape It 339
CIA was shipping cocaine into the US they framed him in order to discredit him. After years of
litigation his attorney was able to prove that the federal witnesses had perjured themselves. But
to his dismay what he discovered was “as a practical matter, only defense witnesses can commit
perjury.” Federal immunity statutes “hold government witnesses harmless for civil penalties
when lying under oath.”

The corruption and misconduct of federal prosecutors is aided by “A little understood
practice in federal courts” which “is to appoint US Attorneys, loyal to the Justice Department
controlling clique, to federal judicial positions, who then act to protect the dirty business in the
Justice department, the CIA, or any other federal agency. Judges who don’t cooperate are
sometimes charged with criminal offenses by Justice Department prosecutors for some real or
fabricated minor offenses and removed from the bench.”

Chapter 11 Judge George F. Bason Jr. was removed from office at the end of his 14 year
term after making an unfavorable ruling against the Justice Dept. in the Inslaw case. 90 percent
of Bankruptcy Judges seeking reappointment receive reappointment. Judge Bason testified
before Congress, “I have come to believe that my non-reappointment as bankruptcy judge was
the result of improper influence from within the Justice Department which the current
appointment process failed to prevent.”

Bennett Gershwin sums up the state of the legal system in his book Prosecutorial
Misconduct. Gershwin is a law professor at pace University in New York and a former New
York State Prosecutor. He writes:

defendants. Now they are simply a rubber stamp. Law enforcement officers know
that in the pursuit of convictions they have a key advantage; there actions will do
them no harm. No matter what the misconduct, the justice department rarely
disciplines agents or prosecutors who cross the line into unethical or even illegal
behavior. Countless numbers of people become victims of government sting
operations, the fighting tool that Congress approved in 1974.
The law allows federal agents to set up an illegal enterprise with the goal
of luring in criminals and then arresting them. It is estimated that there are
hundreds of cases in which government stings trap the innocent or exaggerated
the misconduct of suspects. Time after time, former criminals, con artists, dope
smugglers, perjures and killers were employed by the government to help catch
suspects in exchange for reduced sentences or sometimes even six-figure payoffs.
Prosecutors in court insist that none of these witnesses have any incentive to
lie.

Civil Asset Forfeiture
In 1997 the house of representatives held a hearing on H.R. 1835, the “Civil Asset
Forfeiture Reform Act.” The testimony is very revealing concerning how the act is wrongly
being used to cease the assets of innocent citizens in America without due process. The opening
statement was made by Congressman Henry Hyde who began by complimenting how the act is
