Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley sent a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder Thursday requesting an explanation as to why the Justice Department declined to file charges against a federal prosecutor with child pornography found on his work computer.
The finding against the Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) was made by the Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General (OIG).
According to the Inspector General’s report, the AUSA admitted to spending a significant amount of time each day viewing porn at work.
“The OIG conducted an investigation concerning allegations that an AUSA was using his government computer to view inappropriate material on his government computer,” the Grassley letter quoted from the OIG report. “The investigation determined that the AUSA routinely viewed adult content during official duty hours, and that there was at least one image of child pornography recovered on the AUSA’s government computer. The AUSA acknowledged that he had spent a significant amount of time each day viewing pornography.”
Grassley further questioned why the department kept employing the individual for at least two months following the report; what types of cases this AUSA prosecuted; the status of the individual’s pension; and what types of Internet filters the Department now uses.

That is just sick. The Obama administration seriously does a horrible job at self-policing. Must be because they have no morals.
I’m sure members of the Saudi Royal Family can use their government computers to look at anything they want on the internet. Under this administration, our government’s employees get the same treatment.
Let me guess why no action: the US attorney in question was a member of a protected minority?
Wow...did they already can this article? On the link, I get: Error 404 - Not Found
What’s his name! C’mon Grassley, OUT THIS GUY!
Is the AUSA one of “Holder’s People?”
Comes up for me. Have you visited the site before where you’ve gotten this message? Could it be stemming from your browser history?
Gosh, I hope this sycophant never expects to get a REAL job!
Hmmm...thanks. I’ll try that.
Most corrupt, immoral admin ever. Makes Slick and Dick look clean.
My guess exactly - no prosecution of people of color.
Found out what was happening...the link at the top of the post was bad, but the one at the bottom worked. Thanks for your help.
Hussein will make him the czar of pedephilia. Now that he has gotten the LGT community legitimized, he'll be making that legal next.
He was using “his government computer to view inappropriate material on his government computer”?
He must work for the Department of Redundancy Department.
Oh come on Senator Grassly, you should know by now that Democrats do no wrong. Thus, no charges filed. Even dopey old bkopto knows this.
More Obama adminstration filth ping!
Child porn and the dude stays on the job for two months after the fact was known?!!
Geez!
