shut down a previously undisclosed investigation into the federal
prosecution of former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman, according to an
internal memo from the agency.
The investigation was being conducted by a Special Counsel task

Siegelman case in September and was planning to request documents
from the Justice Department in October before it was ordered to

Project on Government Oversight.
The investigation was one of many that the task force had taken
up, and it was not the only one that the Special Counsel sought to
shut down.
