Show Notes
Federal prosecutors in Colorado propose a rule change to send ethics complaints directly to Attorney General Pam Bondi, bypassing the independent Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel. This move aims to protect against politically motivated claims but is criticized for creating a double standard. Local leaders argue it undermines accountability, citing past cases where federal prosecutors were held to different standards. The proposal echoes a 1998 amendment that forced federal prosecutors under state ethics rules. Critics warn that letting the Justice Department police itself could erode trust in the legal system.
