Caudle Story Tops House Probe In Closed Session
House investigators asked T Lamar Caudle to testify in a closed session over his handling of tax cases before his firing as an assistant attorney general on November 16. His name surfaced in two probes reviewed by a judiciary subcommittee, including a bid to whitewash a St Louis grand jury inquiry connected to the Finnegan case, and a Detroit war frauds matter that stalled for six years before being dropped. Caudle led tax prosecutions for the Justice Department when these matters were active. Whether he testifies publicly hinges on Rep Keating's view of the inquiry's course.
