The Department of Justice is a critical part of the federal government and as such it deserves a review not only of the responsibilities but how they accomplish their responsibilities. Basically the function is to enforce federal law or they defend the federal government in cases before a court such as the Supreme Court.
This book will look at the processes and procedures in place to determine if changes need to be made to make this department more efficient to ensure all federal laws are enforced to the full extent. Integrity is important for any government entity but no more so than this department. Facts will be presented and in some cases suggestions may be made to improve the function of this department. There must be equal justice under the law and no one is above the law and the responsibility of this department to ensure this is the case.
Recently there have been instances where the media has jumped to conclusions about situations and Congress in their infinite wisdom conducts investigations and draws conclusions. At this point these results are submitted to the Department of Justice for further action. It is the responsibility of this Department to vet all investigations and not just accept conclusions by other entities such as Congress before taking legal action. Laws must be enforced but allegations of crimes must be verified.
