A WSJ story today Lawyer Has Terror-Case Track Record says

Ms. Siefer and her colleagues notched a victory in a previous high-profile terrorism-related case. In 2003, her office defended an immigrant accused of being part of a terrorist "sleeper cell" in Detroit. Ms. Siefer didn't make a court appearance but was heavily involved in the case, according to other lawyers. Her office's client was convicted, but a year later the cases were dismissed after the Justice Department said its lead prosecutor hid evidence that could have helped the defense.

This column fills in the details. Thanks to Freeper La Lydia for citing it.

I don’t know if you folks know this but while I was in Michigan for the Holidays I had heard that they want to give this nutjob bomber a skin graft on the tax payers dollar.

Ms Siefer.

Feeding the crocodile, hoping not that it will eat her delectable person last, but she will survive by doing a "useful" job.

Cleaning up it's droppings.

This is beyond despicable and to think that W's Justice Dept was involved in facilitating a known terrorist's being released and not charging this scumbag, ambulance chaser, for her criminal conduct, is hard to fathom, but the Debbie's evidence appear to substantiate that this in fact took place.

The PC, appeasement of Moozies, will be the death of us!!!

If that’s true, then those people should be brought before the state bar for discipline.

So Miriam Siefer, the public defender assigned to represent the Nigerian terror suspect, was once honored by the National Lawyers Guild! The National Lawyers Guild, despite its innocuous sounding name, was founded in 1937 and has been known ever since to be a Communist front group. The fact that Siefer even accepted an award from them likely shows her true color: RED. (And I'm not talking about her hair color!)
