"Justice" Department Threatens Witness

The Justice Department is threatening a document classification expert with (questionable) charges if he testifies against them in court. The case is complex (and a little boring)  but basically the Justice Department is threatening to file charges(that go against the spirit if perhaps not the absolute letter of the law regarding them) against a very senior former governmental official who was in charge of classifying data for the federal government. His testimony would be honest and non-classified, but damaging to Justice's case. He has clashed repeatedly with the Bush administration over their abuse of classification laws. 

Threatening to file bogus charges to silence a witness so you can railroad what very well be an innocent man should be a criminal act. If only there was someone to charge the government. This is the type of behavior we will not miss when the Bush administration comes to an end, and which we can only hope will not continue in the next administration.
