Question Presented (AI Summary)

Does the Department of Justice have an obligation to charge prosecutors and Federal Agents for criminal activity during investigations or prosecutions?

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Does the Department of Justice have an obligation to charge the prosecutors and Federal Agents if they engage in criminal activity during the course of their investigation or prosecution in the very case they are investigating or prosecuting, just like any ordinary citizen engaged in similar conduct in consideration of EQUAL JUSTICE FOR ALL since their actions result in loss of immunity, having being specifically informed of violating 18 USC §242 pursuant to 28 USC §535 (b)? 2. Does 18 U.S. Code § 4 — Misprision of felony apply to Department of Justice officials, regardless of their title or ranking in the DOJ (Gncluding Attorney General), who were officially informed of criminal acts committed by prosecutors and Federal Agents in obtaining indictments and convictions when all four 7 elements of misprision are satisfied and were in a position or were obligated to intervene, but failed to do so which essentially amounts to a constructive step to protect the criminals? Also, in such a situation does everyone who is aware and was in a position to intervene (including Attorney General) but did not in spite of being . provided incontrovertible evidence of crimes, lose their immunity and should be charged with Misprision of Felony like any ordinary citizen because there should be EQUAL JUSTICE FOR ALL? ii (Note: The Supreme Court’s ruling on the above two questions would result in a better and far more meaningful reform of the prosecutorial misconduct than ever before and this case clearly shows how miserably failed and deficient our Justice System is when the DOJ is assigned the task of accountability amongst its own ranks with prosecutorial misconduct, including criminal acts , being swept under the rug by the DOJ even upon ; being made aware of and provided with incontrovertible evidence to two US Attorneys, OPR-DOJ, IG-DOJ and two Attorney Generals Barr and Garland. The attached complaint to AG Barr is extremely revealing. (
