And those efforts need not morph into predatory lending or mortgage fraud," says Matthew Fogg, a Deputy U. S. Marshal (inactive) and founder of Congress Against Racism and Corruption in Law Enforcement (CARCLE). "We must stop the crime destroying subprime credit opportunities while redressing it through appropriate reprieves, bail-outs, and innovative survival tactics," emphasizes Fogg. "Hastily throwing millions or billions of dollars at the problem without preventive training and effective law enforcement is not really a solution; in fact it is a response CARCLE does not endorse," Fogg adds.

Todd, an accomplished civil rights activist, widely known for his dynamic oratorical skills as TNT, has personally called on House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-Mich) to move towards federalizing the regulation of speech among lawyers.

McDonald, and reportedly his ex-law partner, Tucson divorce attorney Leonard Karp. Plaintiffs in the case include D.C. attorney Robert S. Catz who based on personal knowledge and professional experience in cases of state court judicial collusion and cronyism, describes how McDonald and Karp may have gamed the Domestic Relations Division of the Pima County Superior Court for more than a decade. The Tucson Federal Court has been asked to create a class-wide trust fund requiring Leonard Karp and his co-counsel attorney Annette Everlove to repay with interest all attorneys fees, expenses and costs awarded to them by Judge McDonald from 1989 to 1999. Amounts involved could exceed two million dollars. After NJCDLP investigates the matter, a public report of its findings will be issued. (PRWeb Nov 2, 2005)

It debuted at a summit hosted by the nonprofit, legal reform organization and WHEAG, Whistleblowers for an Honest, Efficient, and Accountable Government, at the historic Watergate Hotel in Washington, D. C. on September 23, 2005. Plans are underway to develop “Diogenes” into more of an advocacy tool for classic government whistleblowers as well as legal/judicial reform activists. (PRWeb Oct 9, 2005)
