CLG exclusive: Citizens for Legitimate Government (CLG) has learned that a US Judge will hear a selective prosecution argument made by the so-called DC Madam, Deborah Jeane Palfrey, on Monday. Palfrey told CLG that Monica Goodling "likely will be subpoenaed in this matter - along with many others at Justice - in the near future."

Last week, US District Judge Gladys Kessler entered an order permitting Attorney Montgomery Blair Sibley to substitute for Preston Burton as Jeane's counsel in the criminal matter and set a status conference for Monday, October 22, 2007 at 10:00 a.m., in Courtroom 26A of the federal courthouse in Washington D.C.

Subsequently, Judge Kessler entered an order indicating that she would take up Ms. Palfrey's selective prosecution argument. In essence, according to Mr. Sibley, Ms. Palfrey is arguing that 'as the only one of some eighty-three (83) escort agencies operating in the metro-DC area, the government's decision to prosecute her was based upon political considerations arising before the November 2006 elections.'

According to Mr. Sibley, to support this contention, Ms. Palfrey "will be offering a composite exhibit of statements, news articles and a memo from Monica Goodling which collectively detail the politicization of the Department of Justice in a manner which lends credence to Jeane's argument of selective prosecution. At the conclusion of the argument, Jeane will be asking the Court to issue subpoenas and conduct an evidentiary hearing into these allegations."

Ms. Palfrey told Citizens for Legitimate Government Sunday that Monica Goodling "likely will be subpoenaed in this matter – along with many others at Justice – in the near future."

Much of the time will be spend explaining why they've been subpoenaed.
