“House Ethics Committee to investigate Rep. Filner

Wednesday, September 19, 2007

(09-19) 09:57 PDT WASHINGTON, (AP) --


The House Ethics Committee has announced that it will investigate U.S. Rep. Bob Filner of San Diego over an incident where he allegedly pushed a baggage worker at Dulles airport last month.


The committee made the announcement in a short statement Wednesday.


The statement said that an investigative subcommittee will be formed but that the investigation will wait until the conclusion of criminal proceedings against Filner, a Democrat.


Filner has a court date in Loudon County, Virginia, on October 2 over the incident, which he has attributed to a misunderstanding after his bags were delayed.

NC Won't Help Nifong Fight Duke Lawsuits

Oct 18 01:01 PM US/Eastern



RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - The North Carolina Attorney General's office has refused former prosecutor Mike Nifong's request that the state represent him or pay his legal bills from a civil lawsuit against him filed by three Duke lacrosse players exonerated of rape.
Nifong, who left his Durham County job in disgrace after the disastrous prosecution, had cited his role as a constitutional officer of the state in asking for the assistance.

He also was disbarred for numerous ethics violation in the case, and the letter sent to him by chief deputy Attorney General Grayson Kelley on Tuesday cited his conduct as disqualifying him from the assistance, under state law.

The former players were falsely accused of raping a stripper at a March 2006 party and the state attorney general ultimately declared the players were innocent victims of a "tragic rush to accuse."

The players' federal civil rights lawsuit names Nifong, the city of Durham, several police officials, a private DNA laboratory and others as defendants. They are seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

The city plans to fight the lawsuit, which also demands numerous reforms to the way the Durham Police Department handles investigations and trains its officers.

Nifong resigned from office in July. He served one day in jail in September after a judge held him in criminal contempt of court for lying about having turned over critical DNA test results to defense attorneys.

The attorney general's office took over the lacrosse case after Nifong recused himself amid ethics charges that would later lead to his disbarment. State prosecutors went on to declare former players Reade Seligmann, Collin Finnerty and Dave Evans innocent of all charges in April.”

Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, on Wednesday backtracked on her support for a congressional resolution that has infuriated Turkey’s government, amid doubts over whether the measure would ever be approved.

As recently as the weekend, Ms Pelosi said she planned to take the bill, denouncing mass killings of Armenians during the Ottoman Empire as genocide, to the full House this year.

“U.S. deserters lose bid for Canada refugee status

OTTAWA/TORONTO (Reuters) - Two Americans who deserted the U.S. Army to protest against the war in Iraq lost their bid for refugee status in Canada on Thursday.

The Supreme Court of Canada declined to hear appeals from the two men, Jeremy Hinzman and Brandon Hughey, over decisions by immigration authorities -- backed in two subsequent court rulings -- that they were not refugees in need of protection.

Opposing the war on the belief that it was illegal and immoral, they deserted when they learned their units would be deployed to Iraq, and came to Canada.
If deported to the United States, they say they face a court martial and up to five years in prison.

“Clinton Library Sells Secret Donor List

November 19, 2007 1:47 PM

ABC News

Avni Patel and Marcus Baram Report:

Three years after the William J. Clinton Presidential Library opened its doors, the list of donors who helped the former president build his $165 million complex remains a secret from the public.

Yet the Blotter on ABCNews.com has learned that the Clinton Foundation sold portions of the list through a data company headed by a longtime friend and donor.

"The fact that they've sold the list and then turned around and said that these names must be kept anonymous completely undercuts their argument," said Sheila Krumholz of the Center for Responsive Politics, a Washington, D.C.-based government watchdog group that tracks the influence of money in politics.

An employee of Walter Karl, a subsidiary of the data company InfoUSA, told ABCNews.com that the company made a list of more than 38,000 donors to the Clinton presidential library available for sale to foundations and other nonprofit groups from June 2006 to May 2007. A spokesman for the company would not say how the profits from the sale of the partial list were distributed.

S.F. Supervisors won't ban sex between managers and employees
Cecilia M. Vega,John Wildermuth, Chronicle Staff Writers

Wednesday, November 21, 2007

San Francisco supervisors voted down a measure Tuesday that would have barred city managers from engaging in sexual relationships with their employees - a thinly veiled swipe at Mayor Gavin Newsom's admitted affair with a staffer, who also was his campaign manager's wife.

The measure failed with an overwhelming 10-1 vote, with only Supervisor Chris Daly, the legislation's sponsor, voting in favor of it.

"It is common practice in the corporate work setting where managers ... are held accountable and these types of relationships are not tolerated," Daly said.

The measure would have prohibited city managers from "engaging in romantic or sexual relationships" with employees.

Earlier this year, Newsom acknowledged having an affair with his commission appointments secretary, who at the time was the wife of his campaign manager.

The government said Hsu also violated federal campaign finance laws by making contributions to various political candidates in the names of others.

“Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick shamed by text messages

They raise questions about trial testimony

David Josar, Paul Egan and Christine MacDonald / The Detroit News

DETROIT -- Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick said Wednesday night that text messages indicating he had a sexual affair with his chief of staff in 2002 and 2003 were "profoundly embarrassing" and "reflect a very difficult period in my personal life."

The mayor's prepared statement was released by his office after a report surfaced that text messages show he had an intimate relationship with Chief of Staff Christine Beatty, 37, who has been Kilpatrick's friend since they were classmates at Cass Tech.

This morning, political consultants began digesting reports, trying to read the fallout on the city's political establishment now that text messages contradict what Kilpatrick and his chief of staff said under oath about the relationship between them.

"I think Detroiters have reached their tipping point," said Sam Riddle, a longtime political consultant. "This is going to change the political landscape in the city."

In some of those more than 14,000 messages, Kilpatrick, 37, and Beatty -- both were married at the time -- exchanged sexual banter, declared their love and arranged trysts in motels in Metro Detroit and on out-of-town business trips.

But under oath last summer in a whistleblowers suit filed against the city by two former cops, they both denied a romantic or intimate relationship. They also testified that they didn't plot to fire Deputy Police Chief Gary Brown, but the text messages include exchanges about dismissing him.

Brown and ex-bodyguard Harold Nelthrope sued the city, claiming they were unfairly punished because Nelthrope alleged misbehavior by the mayor and his police bodyguards, and Brown investigated those claims. A jury awarded the pair some $8 million, including interest. In a separate but related case, a third ex-cop, Walt Harris, was paid $400,000.

Judge Michael Callahan, who presided over the whistleblowers case, said Wednesday night he does not plan to pursue contempt proceedings against Kilpatrick or Beatty, but hopes the possibility of criminal perjury charges will be investigated.

"That's where the investigation belongs, certainly, is whether a felony was committed," Callahan said.

Kilpatrick, who has characterized himself as a strong family man dedicated to his wife and three young sons, had repeatedly and vehemently denied an affair with Beatty. Kilpatrick consistently called the officers in the whistleblowers case liars. On the witness stand, he answered with a curt "no" when asked if he had had an intimate relationship with Beatty. Those allegations of infidelity had dogged the mayor since they began to surface in late 2002 and led to the drawn-out court case that was filed in 2003.

Hours after the jury sided with Nelthrope and Brown, the mayor stood defiantly by the Spirit of Detroit statue outside City Hall and announced he had done nothing wrong and would be vindicated on appeal. No appeal was filed, however.

Beatty, too, denied an affair -- 10 times on the witness stand in August. But the text messages sent to a city-issued SkyTel pager, and obtained by the Detroit Free Press, show a different picture.

"I'm madly in love with you," Kilpatrick wrote on Oct. 3, 2002, according to the messages obtained by the Free Press, which published some of the information .....
