The DOJ has announced that it is detailing the the South Carolina US Attorneys Office the DOJ Voting Rights Section Chief who filed the lawsuit against the New Black Panthers Party last year, which was later dismissed by Obama Administration political appointees. A DOJ spokesman said that the reassignment “had nothing to do with the New Black Panther Party case but was the result of conversations Mr. Coates initiated with officials within the Civil Rights Division earlier this year.” The case was dismissed in May of this year.
