"A former Justice Department lawyer, who now devotes her private
practice to federal appeals, dissects some of the most politically
contentious prosecutions of the last 15 years. Powell assembles a
stunning argument for the old adage, "nothing succeeds like
failure," as she traces the careers of a group of prosecutors who
were part of the Enron Task Force. The author brings the case for
judicial redress before the court of public opinion." -- Kirkus
Reviews "Praise for Licensed to Lie"
"Licensed to Lie reads like a cross between investigative
journalism and courtroom drama. The takeaway is that both Bushies
and Obamaites should be very afraid: over the last few years, a
coterie of vicious and unethical prosecutors who are unfit to
practice law has been harbored within and enabled by the now
ironically named Department of Justice." -- William Hodes,
Professor of Law Emeritus, Indiana University, and coauthor, The
Law of Lawyering "Praise for Licensed to Lie"
"Powell has done the law and every citizen a great favor by calling
out an unholy practice of government attorneys. Licensed to Lie:
Exposing Corruption in the Department of Justice, by defense
attorney Sidney Powell, is a lurid tale of deceit and amoral
behavior on the part of government prosecutors. It is so well
written and researched that the story makes for a stunning read."
-- ForeWord Reviews "Praise for Licensed to Lie"
"Last year four government officials demonstrably lied under oath,
and nothing has been done to them--two IRS officials, the Attorney
General, and James Clapper -which caused Ed Snowden to release the
fact that the US is spying on its citizens and in violation of the
4th amendment. That our government is corrupt is the only
conclusion. This book helps the people understand the nature of
this corruption and how it is possible for federal prosecutors to
indict and convict the innocent rather than the guilty." -- Victor
Sperandeo, CEO and author, Trader Vic: Methods of a Wall Street
Master "Praise for Licensed to Lie: Exposing Corruption in the
Department of Justice"
"When you've finished reading this fast-paced thriller, you will
want to stand up and applaud Powell's courage in daring to shine
light into the darkest recesses of America's justice system. The
only ax Powell grinds here is Truth." -- Patricia Falvey, author of
The Yellow House and The Linen Queen, and former Managing Director,
Price "Praise for Licensed to Lie: Exposing Corruption in the
Department of Justice"
