Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz was busy last week, releasing three separate reports on Monday alone. Each detailed misconduct by a different assistant U.S. attorney: One finds a federal lawyer trying to use his position to avoid a drunk driving charge; another finds a government attorney getting drunk and physically belligerent at a meeting with foreign officials; the third, and most disturbing, finds an assistant U.S. attorney exposing his genitals “in a public place,” and sexually assaulting a “civilian” on a date.
