Sharp Drop in Terror-Related Prosecutions Noted

News:
After a brief surge following the Sept. 11 attacks, government lawyers have declined to prosecute 2 out of every 3 terrorism-related cases brought to them by the FBI since 2001, according to a new study. This year the rate is even higher, with 91% of cases referred by law enforcement being dropped, with the cause most frequently cited as insufficient evidence or a lack of criminal intent on the part of the accused.

How many of these cases

do you think were brought before prosecutors using warrantless wiretapping?

How many of these warrantless wiretappings do you think a FISA judge would have approved had bush cared enough to respect our constitution and our laws?

How much confidence and trust do you have in the claim that warrantless wiretaps are done only on potential terrorists?

When are we gonna prosecute the real criminal?
