Greetings. TRAC has prepared a special report on
terrorism enforcement. To give you some reporting
time it is embargoed for Monday, December 3. Using
extensive internal Justice Department data TRAC
just received under court order, the report provides
the most complete and timely portrait ever available
about the federal government's investigation and
prosecution of international and domestic terrorism.
Based on analyses by TRAC's co-directors, the report
covers the five-year period through September 30 of
this year and includes summary text and numerous tables
and graphs.
Many findings -- only a tiny fraction of FBI terrorism
investigations in the last five years resulted in the
bureau actually requesting a prosecution... even when
agencies make terrorism referrals federal prosecutors
declined to bring charges against more than two out of
three of them... if convicted, many receive little prison
time... how volume of terrorism referrals compare across
the county. For even more detailed referral-by-referral
data about terrorism - and a huge range of information about
many other aspects of the federal government - you may want
to become a TRACFED subscriber.
