Licensed to Lie

Man, I surely do not want to get on the bad side of those sleeze-ball government lawyers. (Is that redundant?) Granted, Enron has its own sacred pedestal in Dante’s Fourth Circle of Hell (Greed), but what the DOJ and the judge did to Sidney Powell’s client was level Eight and Nine Circle territory (Fraud and Treachery). And, yet, she lost the case. Ah, excuse me, General Flynn…

Sidney Powell’s “Licensed To Lie” is a must read for anyone concerned about the nature of our so-called Department Of Justice, the DOJ. The book centers around the Senator Stevens and Enron cases and the actions of out-of-control prosecutors that resulted in the destruction of the long-trusted accounting firm of Arthur Anderson. Anderson’s dissolution cost thousands worldwide their jobs and the convictions and imprisoning of others for no other reason that to assure a “win” for the DOJ. Ms. Powell states: “Of the cases the Enron Task Force actually took to trial ALL were reversed in whole or in part…” Strikingly, the “justice system” held no one to account for withholding “exculpatory” evidence in violation of show more the “Brady” obligations. Plenty of lip service to be sure, but little else. And in a rare unanimous decision, the Supreme Court reversed Senator Steven’s conviction for accepting a bribe but not before Stevens lost his Senate seat.
My only criticism is that, being self-published, Ms. Powell failed to adequately explain the numerous legal terms in the text. An objective editor would have been a great help in guiding the layman through the litigious tall grass through which Ms. Powell runs with ease. Three and a half stars for “Licensed To Lie.” show less

Early in 2017, I kept hearing about problems with the Justice Department. Then, I started hearing Sydney Powell as a guest being interviewed about her legal experience years earlier. Buying and reading her book from 2014, it reads like a prequel to many things going on in Washington DC today!

Heaven help you if you are ever indicted by the U.S. Department of Justice !
