Congressional Dems Request Formal Investigation into Ashcroft’s Role in Bush CIA Leak Scandal

Raw Story:

Congressman John Conyers (D-MI) and Congressman Maurice Hinchey (D-NY) will be issuing a formal request for an immediate investigation with the US Inspector General’s office into John Ashcroft – former US Attorney General, Raw Story has learned.

The request – released to Raw Story – cites conflict of interest on the part of Ashcroft in his failure to promptly recuse himself during the initial investigation into the outing of CIA agent Valerie Wilson. Ashcroft was US Attorney General at the time.
