I wonder about the people who have had to be “punished” by these leaders of 2C, do they get to have their cases re-examined? do those who have been found “guilty” under the prosecution of John Bujak receive leniency due to lack of moral standing of the prosecution? (just a thought)

At least you have a prosecutor who will request the AG to come in. Our Kootenai County prosecutor’s philosophy seems to be sit tight, shuffle, and shut up.

If the higher ups in law enforcement are doing their jobs, including Idaho Attorney General Wasden, there will be other indictments brought in the Canyon County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office, and other official offices in Canyon County and Nampa.

It is obvious that the Canyon County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office (including after Bujak) has much to hide. This is the reason that both the plaintiff and the defendant Bujak are desperately trying to reach a deal in mediation, which is not open to the public, and for other reasons. This way, Bujak will be able to bargain and plea his way into a better deal, because there are many others in the prosecutor’s office and other official offices who are culpable, and they know it.

you’re right…but th cops arent going to police the prosecutors office…. one hand of the big blue brotherhood doesnt bite the other….

As a citizen, is there anyway (other than voting, as the term limit votes showed us voting doesn’t matter in this state) to get these people punished, to regain the freedom of anyone who has been tortured by these blatant corrupted politicians? is there anything that can be done to eradicate the world of these people and their ilk? why is it that we know what is right, we know the difference between justice and injustice, yet we continue to allow these people to hurt our fellow Idahoans. This debacle of a government is like a rabid dog, the only way to fix it is to put it down. How do we go about doing this?

Further, if one looks at the statistics from Nampa and Canyon County prosecutions, it will singe your eyebrows!!

Prosecutions for misdemeanors alone shot up over 36 percent from 2009 to 2010!! This was the time period that Bujak and his cronies were trying to scam everyone.

So, looking at the numbers, one may have some very good ground to argue that there were many wrongful prosecutions and wrongful charges brought against innocent defendants.

Also, there may be grounds for criminal indictments based on various crimes such as violation of civil rights and obstruction of justice.

Note to Interested Citizen…
I have known the current Prosecuting Attorney for at least 10 years. Not once have I ever seen Mr. Taylor step over the line of doing something wrong or violate a fiduciary responsiblity.

Here’s the deal for you… lay it out with your name on it and let the wheels of justice grind forward. Let’s see you back up your opinions with some facts please. I am sure the BG would help you expose any wrong doing by Mr. Taylor.

Paul:

Just to help you out a bit: You might wish to begin by analyzing the statistics posted on the CCPA website. If that does not raise some serious questions in your mind or others’, well, the cures for lack of insight sometimes do not work very well.

The Nampa office of the Canyon County Prosecuting Attorney was largely the scene of the crime allegedly committed by Bujak. The alleged crime directly involves the Nampa prosecution contract that Bujak wheedled out of the feckless City of Nampa officials, as well as the Canyon County officials.

So, it only makes sense to scrutinize the activities of the Nampa prosecution office, its management and supervisors, as well as the deputy prosecutors and other officials and other grunts that were there.

These included the present Canyon County Prosecuting Attorney. And, the statistics posted on the CCPA website pretty much tell an interesting story, if you just take the time to analyze them. There might appear to be issues of improprieties, misconduct, and criminal behavior, including obstruction of justice, racketeering, criminal violations of civil and constitutional rights, conspiracy to conceal, and other serious issues.

Stay tuned.

I am having an enjoyable time reading the letter from James Martin at Moffat Thomas to Bujak’s Chapter 7 Bankruptcy trustee and Matthew Christensen (posted on KBOI2.com). You just cannot make this stuff up!!

And, the so-called “salary bumps” for a very substantial amount of the money that went into Bujak’s pocket appears to represent some quite substantial “raises” for a small handful of the prosecutors in the CCPA’s Nampa office.

It certainly makes a reasonable person wonder: Could these “salary bumps” be a disguised BRIBE to other attorneys and prosecutors or staff in the office to keep their mouths shut as to Bujak’s activities, and perhaps also to prosecute wrongfully and often??

After all, take a look at the definition of BRIBERY and CORRUPTION in the Idaho Code under Title 18, Chapter 13, 18-352.

“If the shoe fits, wear it.” Or, “if it looks like a pig, oinks like a pig, and smells like a pig, well……………”

In a March 15, 2010 letter to Bob Henry pursuant to Mr. Henry’s public records request, Samuel Laugheed, from the CCPA, wrote, in reference to Bujak’s and others’ scam: “We recognize that the arrangement is innovative, and that it runs counter to the way things are traditionally done. We intend, however, under Mr. Bujak’s direction, to render the Canyon County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office the state-wide model for efficient, effective, and just prosecution-and that requires no small measure of innovation.”

Hmmmmmmmmmmm. Do I feel a lot of smoke going up my pantleg out of Laugheed’s mouth?

I thought attorneys were required to be circumspect, truthful, and analytical? Not??????

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see the corruption in the treasure valley prosecutors offices and law enforcement. It is only a matter of time before their house of cards comes crashing down. They have somehow managed to con the easily conable “knowing” public but God never misses a trick. I can’t wait for the dominos to start to fall.

Yes, many others should be held criminally liable in Nampa, Canyon County, in the police forces, in the judiciary, and in the courts and clerks’ offices, among others.

There is too much of a “scratch your back” mentality among all of these corrupt law enforcement shills and minions. They are all covering each others’ behinds. And, the Idaho Attorney General, and others who should be investigating all of this suspicious and nefarious activity, do not seem to have any imagination and backbone with regard to these serious and insidious issues.

EDITOR NOTE–In defense of the AG, the local prosecutor holds the power. The AG can only come in at the request of the county prosecutor.
