One Prosecutor is Missing
In her OpEd in the Wall Street Journal dated June 22, 2007, Dorothy Rabinowitz surprisingly omits from her vilification the most outrageous recent case of prosecutorial abuse, Kenneth Starr. Even only by one measure of expense that she implies was caused by Patrick Fitzgerald's case against Scooter Libby, Mr. Starr’s multimillion dollar effort to embarrass the Clinton presidency was surely more wasteful of government resources than the Libby conviction.
The while that Ms. Rabinowitz laments before the wheels of justice catch up with special prosecutors will also, no doubt, ever exempt Mr. Starr from being held to account.
