Durbin writes Justice Department on Hilton, Dem hackings
RAW STORY
Don't know why I hadn't heard of this before...

From Rawstory:

Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) penned a letter to Bush Attorney General Alberto Gonzales Wednesday asking why the Justice Department was able to successfully prosecute a teenager for hacking into Paris Hilton's cell phone, but has yet to fully investigate two Republican staffers who hacked into the Senate Democratic Judiciary computer system, RAW STORY has learned.

The Massachusetts teenager was sentenced to 11 months in juvenile detention earlier this week for hacking into the hotel heiress' cell phone and other corporate computer systems.

Durbin refers to two Republican Judiciary committee staffers who were caught hacking into confidential memorandums between Democratic Senators and their attorneys in April 2004. The case was referred to the New York Justice Department, but has never come to fruition.

2. Very Interesting indeed...

How could this happen? Why the lack of investigation if any at all?
Are these 2 protected by the Bush Crime Family or the family's underlings?Its amazing how the Justice Dept.picks and chooses who to
indict and imprison.Good for Durbin I hope he gets some results..

We are nothing but a large banana republic at this point.
