Eric Holder

They are treated as murderers. They are treated in the way that their crimes would have them be treated.

I think what we need to do is really what the Department is doing, and that is looking at each case...

We remain committed to using all of the tools that we have in trying to win this war.

I don't expect that.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) does not have an estimate for the full implementation cost of the Adam Walsh Act (AWA).

I appreciate that input.

How are we supposed to do this if we are going to segregate people, build new facilities, and do training?

A military target was involved, the casualties were brave sailors, military men, and that is one of the distinctions that we made.

I pledged that under my leadership the Justice Department would vigorously pursue a specific and critical set of objectives--combating terrorism, fighting crime, and enforcing our laws in a neutral and in a non-partisan way--and…

let us close Guantanamo, Senator McCain, President Bush, Colin Powell all said Guantanamo should be closed.

I share your concerns about the sexual mistreatment of people who go to prison.

I frequently hear the notion that these terrorists are getting rights that the average American would not get.

Ensuring the safety of the American people continues to be our paramount responsibility.

I thought it was very dramatic to say we are not afraid of you, we will try you at the scene of the crime.

There is only so much I can say about that because there is an ongoing investigation into the core of what was at that Times article.

If you were to take away from the Justice Department, from this Government, from this Administration and subsequent administrations, the ability to use Article III courts you would weaken our ability to successfully fight these wars.

What our history tells us is that a relatively small number of gun stores supply a disproportionate number of guns that are used in violent crimes.

I mean, I think you have two paradigms. You have the troop who is arrested in the field...

I would disagree with the characterization that there is a split between America and the leadership of this Administration.

I think that is speculation. You are asking me about something that, on the basis of all the intelligence that I have had a chance to review, the possibility just simply does not exist.

It is infinitesimal. Either he will be killed by us or he will be killed by his own people so that he is not captured by us.

I think my answer to that would be to look at history and look at the way in which these cases have been conducted safely, without incident to neighborhoods and communities.

If Mexico is ultimately to be successful in this war that they are fighting, that will benefit this Nation as well.

I don't think there is an instance of a terrorism case where somebody, a terrorist charged in an Article III court, got off on a so-called technicality.

I feel as serious about it as you do, and my comment was only directed at the fact that you are taking note of a fact that we have reduced our funding here for that.
