WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Justice Department said Wednesday it would drop corruption charges against former Sen. Ted Stevens because prosecutors withheld evidence from the senator's defense team during his trial...

In court filings, the Justice Department admitted it never turned over notes from an interview with the oil contractor, who estimated the value of the renovation work as far less than he testified at trial.

So, if the justice department intentionally withheld exculpetory evidence and the oil contractor lied on the stand for the justice department, why aren't they going after these people?
