Unelected Judges and Attorney Generals repeatedly HIJACK Grand Jury Investigations.

Unelected Judges and Attorney Generals repeatedly HIJACK Grand Jury Investigations.

In  December, David Ignell wrote an article outlining how Alaska’s unelected judges and attorney generals have repeatedly highjacked grand jury investigations into the Office of Children Services.  https://mustreadalaska.com/david-ignell-a-human-tragedy-caused-by-ocs/ Every family in Alaska needs to be paying attention to agency's that need this grand juror investigation and oversight.  Families cannot continue to be deprived of safety, happiness and the right to due process simply because they are too poor to afford themselves competent representation by good legal counsel.  I think all of you will agree that OCS is just one example of needing an investigation.  Judge Margaret Murphy was arraigned on…

PAC derails Justice

PAC’s and the impact our courts have on elections

Worried about institutional corruption?  You should be.  Here is yet another example of corruption by elected officials through the influence of courts which will not allow the hobbling of super PACs.   The legal precedent for super PACs Many people believe that the US Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, which allowed corporations to spend money directly in elections, compels this result. But Citizens United, bad as it was, didn't say anything about super PACs. Instead, starting a few months after the Citizens United decision, a handful of lower courts, based on an unfortunate misunderstanding of Citizens United, decided that the Constitution…
