U.S. attorney general pressed on why lying is allowed for DOJ officers

• https://www.wnd.com, By Bob Unruh

Lying apparently now is accepted by the Department of Justice.

At least for SOME people. That would be if you're an employee there.

That's evident from a letter to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland from Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa.

Grassley, the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has announced he is demanding answers from Garland on his "repeated failure to prosecute employees after they are caught making materially false statements during internal investigations."

Grassley listed in his letter at least a dozen cases where "the DOJ Office of Inspector General (OIG) made criminal referrals against DOJ employees, but DOJ never took legal action – despite the same charges being frequently prosecuted when they are made against the American public."

One recent high profile situation developed when the DOJ refused to prosecute two Federal Bureau of Investigation agents in the Larry Nassar case, after it was confirmed they made multiple false statements.

"The supervisory agent was fired by the FBI for 'violating the FBI's policies by making false statements and failing to properly document complaints by the accusers.' Yet, despite a criminal referral from the OIG, the DOJ refused to prosecute the two agents for the same crime that they routinely prosecute hundreds of American people for each year," Grassley charged.
