Biskupic's target in Georgia Thompson case: Jim Doyle
Thu, 05/17/2007 - 10:51am | xoff
US Attorney Steven Biskupic tried to squeeze Georgia Thompson, the state employee who was falsely convicted, offering her leniency in exchange for testimony against higher-ups in the administration of Democratic Gov. Jim Doyle.
Biskupic has insisted the case was not politically motivated.
Isthmus has details in a copyrighted story today.
Here's my post on DailyKos.
UPDATE: WashPost reports 26 US Attorneys were on the dismissal list at some point. Biskupic was on the very first. List.

I love Josh Marshall, but he is convinced Biskupic is squeaky clean because Comey, Blanchard and Lautenschlager say so.
With due respect to the aforementioned jurists, I say Georgia Thompson, Kim Rude (convicted of voter fraud) and Keith Roberts (veteran convicted of wire fraud) et al, are more credible sources.

Justice isn't going to happen by itself, please push this.
