For nearly a year Rep. Duncan Hunter has dismissed prosecutors and the criminal charges against him as politically motivated.
Now hes asking the courts to do the same.
On Monday Hunters attorney filed a motion of dismissal in federal court, asking the judge to throw out the criminal case against him on the grounds that the U.S. attorneys prosecuting him lacked impartiality and improperly conducted themselves, thus violating his Fifth Amendment right to due process.
Or, alternatively, Hunter asked that the United States Attorneys Office for the Southern District of California be removed from further participation in the case.

(82,849 posts)Is the prosecution treating you and your activities like common criminality? That's gotta be terrible for a well-connected white guy! I think we can all agree that poor Duncan has now suffered enough.
