Subject: Justice at Libby Trial?  Who'll be the Judge?


Wayne Madsen Report, October 30, 2005

Judge assigned to Libby case has links to Republican Right

Recusal of judge appointed to the bench by two Bush presidents should have been sought by prosecutor

US District Judge for DC Reggie Walton has been assigned the Lewis Libby case. It is noteworthy to point out Walton's past and current links to the Republican Right and to elements in the Bush administration who have covered up important details about 9/11. Walton was appointed to the DC Superior Court in 1981 by Ronald Reagan. In 1989, he was appointed by George H. W. Bush as the deputy drug czar under Bill Bennett. Walton was reappointed to the DC Superior Court by the senior Bush. George W. Bush nominated Walton to the US District Court for DC in 2001.

Walton was the judge who, under pressure from the Justice Department, placed a gag order on former FBI translator and whistleblower Sibel Edmonds and cleared his courtroom of the public and media in Edmonds' hearing in her case against the FBI.  Edmonds brought to light important information about how the FBI failed to translate important wiretap intercepts before and after 9/11.
