Andrew Kreig DC journalist and attorney Posted: July 8, 2009 06:03 PM
In an interview today for this article, Tamarah Grimes alleged a bone-chilling conspiracy to frame the defendants for political gain.
Alabama attorney Dana Jill Simpson said her testimony about political prosecutions in Alabama encouraged defendant families around the country to contact her with similar tales of abusive prosecutions destroying defendant political careers and family finances for no legally valid reason.
Dana Jill Simpson passed along victim information for the past two years to the relatively few journalists willing to pursue investigative leads, with law professor Scott Horton of Harper's providing the most numerous and comprehensive follow-ups.
Former Reagan Associate Deputy Attorney Gen. Bruce Fein and retired Chief U.S. District Judge U.W. Clemon of Birmingham described widespread abuses of power.
Judge U.W. Clemon said the 2004 prosecution of Siegelman was the most unfounded criminal case he observed in nearly 30 years on the federal bench. C-SPAN cablecast the forum seven times, with excerpts available on its website:
Tamarah Grimes said she tried her best to use legally protected channels to assure justice. "I am a Republican. I believe in the U.S. Constitution, and that what happened in Montgomery, Alabama with the Siegelman/Scrushy prosecution is a travesty of justice." "In July 2007, I filed whistleblower disclosures with several agencies," she said. "My thought was to get the word out to as many oversight agencies as possible. She was fired after writing a nine-page letter June 1 to Attorney General Eric Holder outlining prosecution misconduct against Siegelman.
Dana Jill Simpson says of Grimes, whom she's never met or tried to contact, "I think that woman's a hero. She came forward knowing she was going to get fired in all likelihood. Isn't it amazing that the big-shots who sent innocent people to prison around the country are still on the government payroll?"
You might not want to be Don Siegelman today. But would you like to be one of those who led his prosecution?
