何谓关说?或者说如何处理?
※ 引述《hifree (hifree)》之铭言:
: : → diggershi:简单的说 目前就是立法委员关说不违法 59.120.184.171 09/23 15:32

: 其实这个案子刚好可以检视一下何谓妨碍司法公正的关说
: 在国外立法例下
: 妨碍司法公正的正式定义为「具有妨碍司法公正倾向及意图的作为、一连串的作为
: 或行为」(an act, a series of acts, or conduct which has the tendency and
: is intended to pervert the course of justice)具体表现在任何一种下列的行为:
: 中止刑事检控以换取报酬
: 提出虚假的指控
: 向调查人员提供虚假的陈述
: 刻意协助他人逃避追捕
: 恐吓、胁迫或骚扰证人
: 证人故意不出席聆讯,以换取报酬
: 捏造、藏匿或毁灭证据
: 发布文章,刻意妨碍司法公正
: 不当地中止检控
: 使原来可能得以提出检控的法定程序受挫

(原文有点长,我重点解说)
Prior to the 2006 midterm election Domenici called and pressured
then-United States Attorney for the District of New Mexico David
Iglesias to speed up indictments in a federal corruption
investigation that involved at least one former Democratic state
senator. When Iglesias said an indictment would not be handed down
until at least December, Domenici said "I'm very sorry to hear
that" — and the line went dead. Domenici's telephone manners were
the subject of a later article in The Albuquerque Journal, which
quoted numerous other sources whom Domenici had treated rudely by
hanging up after making a point or receiving an unsatisfactory
answer.
简单地说,参议员杜曼尼的竞争对手因为贪污被检察官调查,杜议员就打电
话给检察官,希望他赶快处理,最好赶在11月选举前。检察官不鸟他,回覆
说最快得12月才能侦结
Iglesias was fired a little over one month later by the
Bush Administration. A communication by a senator or House member
with a federal prosecutor regarding an ongoing criminal
investigation is a violation of ethics rules.
重点是,一个月以後
该名检察官就被布希政府开除了!
In a March 2007
statement, Domenici admitted making such a call.[20] House
Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers, D-Mich., issued
subpoenas to require Iglesias and three other ousted U.S.
attorneys to testify before Congress.[21]
Domenici later admitted calling Iglesias, though Domenici claimed
he never used the word "November" when he called Iglesias about an
ongoing Albuquerque courthouse corruption case.[22] Domenici has
denied trying to influence Iglesias, and has hired lawyer K. Lee
Blalack II to represent him.[23]
According to the Justice Department, Domenici called the
Department and demanded Iglesias be replaced on four
occasions.[24]
According to The Washington Post, on the day of the firing
(December 7, 2006) William Kelley, a deputy to then White House
Counsel Harriet Miers, said in an email that Domenici's chief of
staff was "happy as a clam" about the Iglesias firing. A week
later, a Justice Department email to the White House counsel
stated: "
Domenici is going to send over names tomorrow (not even
waiting for Iglesias's body to cool)."
这里的重点是:有关系就没关系,没关系就有关系。你检察官哪有我参议员
大?一通电话就把你开除了!
On April 24, 2008,
Domenici was admonished by the Senate Ethics
Committee for "inappropriately" contacting in 2006 one of the nine
U.S. attorneys later fired by President Bush.[16]
所谓的国会自律,仅值一纸不痛不痒的警告。
The light punishment came after the committee found “no
substantial evidence” that Domenici tried to influence attorney
David Iglesias when he contacted him to inquire about the status
of a 2006 investigation into corruption charges on a state
Democratic official. A possible indictment could have buoyed the
re-election hopes of Rep. Heather Wilson (R-N.M.), who was seeking
to replace Domenici when the senator retires after his current
term. Iglesias charged that Domenici and Wilson were pressuring
him to wrap up the investigation before that November’s
elections, a violation of ethics rules.[20]
The Ethics Committee said that Domenici’s phone call to Iglesias,
in advance of an upcoming election, “created an appearance of
impropriety that reflected unfavorably on the Senate”.[20] In
July 2010, Department of Justice prosecutors closed the two-year
investigation without filing charges after determining that the
firing was inappropriately political, but not criminal, saying
"Evidence did not demonstrate that any prosecutable criminal
offense was committed with regard to the removal of David
Iglesias. The investigative team also determined that the evidence
did not warrant expanding the scope of the investigation beyond
the removal of Iglesias."[26] Domenici said of the closed
investigation, "The Justice Department has now confirmed what I
have always said and believed: I never attempted to interfere with
any government investigation. I am glad that this matter has
concluded."[26]
後面细节就不多翻了。
总之,这羣人 (foreign or domestic) 对关说司法个案的态度就是如此。从制度面到现实
面,一路走来始终如一。
我的心得是,这羣人一旦掌握了权力,大家真的只好个人顾性命。
