No, I’m more anti-big-mouth. Joe DiGenova is a definitely a big mouth, his credentials don’t impress me. I’m a lowly blue collar worker, with no DC contacts. Why is his work more important than mine? It’s not. How many Democrats has he put in jail? The same as me, ZERO.
“No, I’m more anti-big-mouth.”
You should try looking in the mirror, newbie.
Stop sniveling, Noob.
Wrong.
A Conversation With Joseph diGenova
From Washington Lawyer, February 2013
By Kathryn AlfisiJoseph diGenova’s notable legal career in the District of Columbia has taken him from Capitol Hill to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia to private practice, while his visible media presence has made him known far outside the Beltway.
…
For four years diGenova served as U.S. attorney for the District, during which time he supervised federal criminal and civil matters involving international drug smuggling, public corruption, espionage, insider trading, tax fraud, extradition, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, export control, and international terrorism. He worked on the case involving Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard and the TWA Flight 847 hijacking case, and conducted a corruption probe in the D.C. government that led to the conviction of two deputy mayors.
In 1997 diGenova was named special counsel to investigate the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, and, as a result, he now sits on the Independent Review Board that oversees the Teamsters.
In addition, diGenova has experience on Capitol Hill. He was chief counsel and staff director of the Senate Rules Committee and counsel to the Senate Judiciary, Governmental Affairs, and Select Intelligence committees. He also served as administrative assistant and legislative director to U.S. Senator Charles Mathias.
In Mr. diGenova's four years as United States Attorney, 12 officials of Mayor Barry's administration have been convicted, including two deputy mayors.Mr. diGenova also won a guilty plea from Paul Thayer, a former Deputy Defense Secretary, on a charge of obstructing justice and prosecuted the espionage cases of Jonathan Pollard and Randy Miles Jeffries.
He led a prosecution team last year to West Germany to help American authorities identify a suspected terrorist being tried there in the hijacking of a United States airliner.
Mr. diGenova's office also led the successful effort to keep John W. Hinckley Jr. confined to a mental hospital, where he has been a patient since being found not guilty by reason of insanity in the attempted assassination of President Reagan in 1981.
