Dallas Citizens for Fairness
Dallas Citizens for Fairness
The Dallas Citizens for Fairness is a group comprised of community leaders, and the general citizenry. We are publicly announcing our outrage in regards to the unfair justice that we believe Mr. and Mrs. Donald W. Hill are faced with here in Dallas, Texas. What has become very clear in recent days is that “true justice” was not forthcoming from the United States Department of Justice under the Bush Administration. The Dallas Morning News Editorial Page echoed many of our cries when the paper recently said:
“When former attorney general Alberto Gonzales left Washington one year ago in professional disgrace, his critics said that he allowed the Dept. of Justice to be wrecked by partisan politics. Recently, an internal Justice Department investigation revealed just how badly politics corrupted the agency on Mr. Gonzales’s watch.

It has been widely reported that, “senior aides to former Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales broke the Civil Services laws by using politics to guide their hiring decisions, picking less-qualified applicants for important nonpolitical positions, slowing the hiring process at critical times and damaging the department’s credibility. Pervasive evidence of political hiring for some of the Justice Department’s most senior career positions, including immigration judges, and assistant United States attorneys has been conclusively established.. A federal grand jury has subpoenaed several former senior Justice Department attorneys for an investigation into the politicization of the Department’s own Civil Rights Division, according to numerous media sources. Two U.S.House of Representative Judiciary Sub-Committees are exploring charges that U. S. Attorneys targeted Democratic office holders for “selective” prosecution with a particular focus on whether federal prosecutors abused their power in a number of state and local corruption cases. Within recent months, a prominent movie director produced a documentary on this very subject. The video can be viewed @ www.politicalprosecutions.org.
With the gathering storm of “injustice” having swept over the Bush Justice Department, we believe citizens in this should pause before making any further judgments of those city officials still facing trial on public corruption charges. Though wrongdoing is never limited to just Republican or Democrats, nor just blacks or whites, the evidence is building that some of the defendants charged in these cases may have been the victims of “partisan political profiling”. The ongoing investigation of the United States House of Representatives Committee on the Judiciary stated in its Majority Staff Report entitled“ Allegations of Selective Prosecution in Our Federal Criminal Justice System, dated April 17, 2008, that an extraordinary degree of politicization within the Department of Justice

It seems that justice is hard to come by in Dallas, Tx
Unless you happen to be of none African American, and the gap appears to be getter wider
