FBI blocked in corruption probe involving Sens. Reid, Lee

FBI agents working alongside Utah state prosecutors in a wide-ranging corruption investigation have uncovered accusations of wrongdoing by two of the U.S. Senate�s most prominent figures � Majority Leader Harry Reid and rising Republican Sen. Mike Lee � but the Justice Department has thwarted their bid to launch a full federal investigation.

The probe, conducted by one Republican and one Democratic state prosecutor in Utah, has received accusations from an indicted businessman and political donor, interviewed other witnesses and gathered preliminary evidence such as financial records, Congressional Record statements and photographs that corroborate some aspects of the accusations, officials have told The Washington Times and ABC News.

But the Justice Department�s public integrity section � which normally handles corruption cases involving elected figures � rejected FBI agents� bid to use a federal grand jury and subpoenas to determine whether the accusations are true and whether any federal crimes were committed by state and federal officials.

Who knew?

"So?"- Harry Reid

And the walls come tumbling down........

Sen Lee should call a press conference and demand the investigation and grand jury proceedings go forward to clear his name, with the serendipity being an indictment of dirty Harry.

I read the whole article. The accusation is pretty old news. I applaud anyone who wants to get to the bottom of political (and other) corruption in the inter-mountain west!

the accuser is pretty desperate, from the same article:

Quote

Tainted accuser

Mr. Johnson�s credibility is certain to come under attack from anyone he levels accusations against.

Federal prosecutors secured a federal indictment accusing the St. George, Utah, businessman of 86 criminal charges accusing him and other executives of his former financial firm of bilking tens of thousands of consumers out of millions of dollars.

A plea deal between him and the government fell through before the charges were filed, and the U.S. attorney�s office subsequently secured a gag order from a federal judge prohibiting Mr. Johnson from talking to the media.

Despite the accusations portraying Mr. Johnson as a swindler, FBI and state investigators have unearthed some early information that would substantiate some aspects of his claims against state and federal officials.

They include canceled checks of some of the payments Mr. Johnson purportedly made to third parties other than Mr. Reid, other bank records and even a photo of the fundraiser with Mr. Reid, officials said.

p/s Mike Lee, the other Senator mentioned, is pretty conservative.
