CREW: Regarding John Ensign

December 14, 2011 // Why did the Department of Justice (DOJ) decline to prosecute Sen. John Ensign (R-NV)? It's a question to which the American people deserve an answer. Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) has filed Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests with the DOJ and the FBI seeking documents from the government's investigation that would answer why Sen. Ensign was not criminally prosecuted, despite clear evidence he violated the law.
