from Federal prosecution of public corruption in the United States - Wikipedia

The prosecution of state and local political corruption became a “major federal law enforcement priority” in the 1970s.[11] United States v. Addonizio (3d Cir. 1971)[12] and United States v. Kenny (3d Cir. 1972)[13]—both brought by U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, Herbert Jay Stern (later a federal judge)—were the first prosecution of political corruption pursuant to the economic fear prong and the “under color of official right” prong of the Hobbs Act, respectively.[14] Henderson describes these cases as the “New Jersey breakthroughs.”[15]

In 1976, the Public Integrity Section was established within United States Department of Justice Criminal Division with general supervisory jurisdiction over public corruption offenses.[16] By 1977, “[t]he four United States attorney’s offices most active in this field—the Southern District of New York, New Jersey, Maryland, and the Northern District of Illinois—” had “developed coteries of high skilled prosecutors and a tradition of success that encourages an atmosphere of alertness to potential corruption cases.”[17]

In 1977, Thomas H. Henderson, Jr., the Chief of the Public Integrity Section, wrote:

Until recently, the full panoply of potential federal resources had not been brought to bear effectively on corruption schemes at the state and local level. These schemes are at least as corrosive of the governmental process as corruption at the federal level. From the time of Tammany Hall this country has been painfully aware of the existence of corrupt practices in many of our metropolitan areas, and of the “machines” and “rings” which siphon off millions of dollars from public treasuries for private gain. Most state and local prosecutors, beset by inadequate resources and the overwhelming demands of a rising rate of street crime, are simply unable to deal with this type of corruption. Moreover, in some cases, local law enforcement is part and parcel of the problem itself, due to the outright corruption of its own establishment.

To fill this enforcement role, federal prosecutors during the last decade began to assume a much more active and creative role in attempting to use federal statutes to attack corruption at the state and local level.[18]

In 1976, there were 337 indictments of state and local officials for public corruption, compared to 63 in 1970.[19] Between 1970 and 1981, there were 520 federal indictments of state officials, and 1,757 indictments of local officials, for public corruption; over that period, 369 state officials, and 1,290 local officials, were convicted.[20] In 1986, there were 916 indictments of public officials for corruption, 320 of which concerned state and local officials.[21] In 1990, there were 968 such indictments, 353 of which were against state and local officials.[22]

everything it involves is already illegal

just more identity bullcrap

dunno one poor soul kept their stupid hillary avie for months despite her being such a loser.

The contrast between this “prosecutorial discretion” and Barr’s “prosecutorial discretion” is amusing…

That’s because we were always right about Trump never colluding with the Russians like Hillary did with her bought and payed for Russian propaganda dossier

At least at the level of Obama’s attempted coup.

Which infowars products do you use to stay frosty in the face of lib mob fake news conspiracies?

I go with DNA Force PLUS, Alpha Power, and BodEase myself.

First, the rooskie collusion conspiracy. Now, the Smollett conspiracy. This country is going down hill with all these conspiracies.

On the bright side, now that Smollett is in the clear, authorities can finally concentrate on finding that pair of white MAGA thugs who assaulted him…we know they’re out there somewhere.

And it’s probably just the toast burning.

This is heating up quickly…just as it should. As it does, it’ll be interesting to see where the mayor and police chief actually stand? On camera, the chief is pissed. Then there’s the texts between Foxx and Tchen that indicate otherwise? Things that make you say hmmmmmmmmmmmm…

Leave the brother alone.

WithTrump, there was no there, there :wink:

This is Chicago and Illinois we are talking about. The place has been a cesspool sine the early 1900s maybe enev 1800s.

Leave the brother alone…

At least the Trumpster is doing his job.
