The FBI Behaving Badly, Again

Because they are not in the business of upholding the law. They punish people they don’t like. Judge calls alleged investigator misconduct in Lori Loughlin case ‘serious and disturbing’.

A federal judge Friday called allegations of law enforcement misconduct in the nation’s college admissions scandal headlined by actress Lori Loughlin “serious and disturbing” as he ordered prosecutors to provide more information in the blockbuster case.

The Federal Bureau of Injustice Agents of the FBI convinced a “cooperating witness” to suborn a crime. Or that is certainly what it looks like to the judge in this case.

“The Court considers the allegations in Singer’s October notes to be serious and disturbing,” [U.S. District Judge Nathaniel] Gorton wrote. “While government agents are permitted to coach cooperating witnesses during the course of an investigation, they are not permitted to suborn the commission of a crime

This isn’t the kind of case I usually write about, but the FBI and their misleading tactics and out-and-out lying on everything from FISA warrants to college admissions scandals have been on my mind.
