The San Diego Union Tribune argues that Charles Keating, convicted in 1993 of racketeering fraud and conspiracy, was released after judge Mariana Pfaelzer ruled jurors were improperly influenced by a prior securities fraud case. Although a $1.8 billion civil judgment remains, Keating may face retry by federal authorities. The piece contends that letting him go undermines criminal justice and urges renewed prosecution.

Lawyers seek Supreme Court reversal of Buckley v. Valeo
A Brennan Center effort aims to lobby the Supreme Court through public debate and mock court sessions to overturn the 1976 Buckley v. Valeo ruling.
