Subject: Larry Becraft: Public Corruption Cases List
Reply | Reply to author | Forward | Print | Individual message | Show original | Report this message | Find messages by this author
You might appreciate this list of convictions of criminals in government.
You can and should use the appropriate portions of it to prove your
assertion that our government does contain a multitude of criminals, and the
public must have assistance in bringing them down through grand juries, and
administrative process that bypass the corrupt courts which prevent the
achievement of justice.
Stop and think about this.
Many people in government have little or no awareness of the corruption
around them, and YOU have to PROVE It to them. Lists like this step in that
direction.
Thanks for compiling it, Larry Becraft.

LIST OF PUBLIC CORRUPTION CASES
by Larry Becraft
This list could be the source for many articles. In a brief, you can make the statement that Congressmen are crooked, and then footnote a variety of cases to support that proposition.
