Source:No criminal case likely over torture memos

In Washington, Justice Department officials stopped short the recommending criminal charges against Bush administration lawyers, who wrote secret memos approving harsh interrogation techniques of terror suspects. Also, the Justice Department notified two senators, on Monday, that most of their work was complited. The letter did'nt metion a possibility of criminal charges, nor did it name the lawyers under scrutiny. Many have asked for the matter to be dropped. The Whitehouse scheduled a hearing on the issue, both Whitehouse and Durbin pressed the Justice Department employees.
