[link to it] 2Sep04 : more on the doj document destruction request flap

Here's a summary of events surrounding the Department of Justice's order to destroy government repository documents, and their subsequent rescinding of that order. I'm happy to note that my Senator who is the ranking Senator on the Judiciary Committee is one of the co-signers on a letter [pdf] asking Ashcroft exactly what the DoJ was up to.

We seek clarification of your initial destruction request because it defies logic that federal statutes could be considered solely internal to the Department's deliberations and not useful for any other purpose.
