Down Home Alabama
Scott Horton/NoComment:
Another Election Season, Another Political Prosecution in Alabama
The morning calm in the small Alabama town of Toney, located near Huntsville, was broken at 6:15 a.m. yesterday morning. A team of five FBI agents, accompanied by a prison matron, pounded on the door. When the man of the house answered, he was forced into the yard, shirtless in the early morning cold. The team had come for his wife, Sue Schmitz. She was dragged out of her bathroom, where she was taking a shower, handcuffed, breaking her flesh and scraping her wrists, and hustled off to prison. .. Who was this threat to the community? Sue Schmitz is a dimuitive, 63-year-old retired social studies teacher who has lived in the town for 38 years, roughly 20 of them as a civics teacher.
Read the whole thing, try to remain calm.

Horton hears
and writes quite a bit on Alabama's DOJ shenanigans. Congress' impeachment powers extend to federal judges and appointed USAs, but the body seems disinclined to use them.

I can't access the Horton web site
I can only read what you posted. The other links at the top don't seem to be working for me.

Alabama cases
I was curious what kinds of cases the DOJ have pursued in Alabama.
I'd forgotten about Siegelman.
There's a strange case about child models actually being pornography. It's a bit over the top.
Same DOJ attorney, Alice Martin, as in the Sue Schmitz case.
