But this does seem to me yet more evidence that should be added to the existing stack, that the Holder DOJ is corrupt; broken, if you will.

Outgoing MA Gov. Patrick tended leftwards of most commenters on this blog, but I will always remember him favorably for his judicial appointments. Previous governors had shown a knee-jerk preference for former prosecutors. Patrick, however, was more conscious of justice issues, eg. promoting two of the judges who had helped free Baran. He also sacked two fanatical administrators of the MA sex offender registry, though family experience may have spurred his interest.

It makes sense, however, in the context of current British politics: activists are trying to leverage a (fact-based, at least initially) sex scandal involving deceased entertainer Jimmy Savile into a blizzard of accusations against mostly Tory politicians. If Oxford U. has the same kind of zealots that many US universities do, the Cheit Book can be used to confuse the ill-informed.
