McKlatchy reports today that US attorney Steve Biscupic in Milwaukee, WI. was originally on the list of US attorneys to be fired for not bringing voter fraud cases against Democrats. He saved his job by prosecuting a Wisconsin civil servant, Georgia Thompson, for improperly giving a state travel contract to the Adelman Travel Group. The Adelman Travel Group is run by a politically involved family which prefers Democrats.
This prosecution is the one which the normally conservative Appeals court recently sent back to the District Court with direction to acquit because of an utter lack of evidence to support the conviction. [See Georgia Thompson was convicted by right-wing media [Friday, April 13, 2007], NY Times gets it right in an Editorial today [Monday, April 09, 2007] and Wisconsin US attorney rammed through fake corruption case of Democrat before last Governor's election [Friday, April 6, 2007].]
