An unusually harsh criticism of the Justice Department and Attorney General Loretta Lynch in this Washington Post op-ed by Phillip Heymann, who was the Deputy AG during the Clinton Administration.  The case was generated by a controversial immigration raid on a Kosher Meat plant in Iowa that netted hundreds of undocumented workers and resulted in the business’s bankruptcy.  Heymann represents the views of 107 former DOJ officials, including former Attorneys General.
