Senator Stevens’ attorneys ask US Attorney General to pull all prosecution team from any further involvement with his case

 In a letter to US Attorney General Michael Mukasey, Senator Stevens’ attorney wrote, “Stevens’ trial was irretrievably tainted by the prosecution team’s zeal to convict a high profile but innocent defendant.” Huh, isn’t this the same excuse OJ Simpson used a while ago?  Come on Senator, you are paying your lawyers $1,000 an hour; they really need to come up with something better than this.

The letter also said, “We believe that an impartial investigation looking at this case with an eye toward the administration of justice would be shocked at the conduct of this prosecution team.”   Senator Stevens, please go away, your time is up, stop spending taxpayers’ dollars on this case.  Like I said before, Bush will pardon you; you will not spend any time in jail.
