Justice Dept. pressed to explain Panthers dropped charges - Washington Times: "The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights is expected to approve Friday the sending of a second letter to the Justice Department, asking it to justify its decision in May to drop charges against members of the New Black Panther Party accused of intimidating voters at a Philadelphia polling place in the November election.
Martin Dannenfelser, staff director, said a majority of the commissioners were not satisfied with a response by the department to a June 16 letter, in which the commission said the decision to drop the case had caused it 'great confusion' since the NBPP members were 'caught on video blocking access to the polls, and physically threatening and verbally harassing voters.'"
