Eric Holder has no plans to investigate the Phoenix VA over the deaths of 40 veterans

  It has been alleged that 40 veterans died while waiting for doctor appointments with the Phoenix VA because they were placed on a secret waiting list. Barack Obama ordered investigations into this burgeoning scandal and currently there are two investigations being conducted. However neither of these investigations is being help by the Department of Injustice and today Eric Holder stated he has no plans to investigate this matter.

Attorney General Eric Holder said Tuesday that the Department of Justice doesn’t have any plans to investigate allegations that veterans placed on secret waiting lists at VA hospitals died while waiting for care.

“Well, obviously these reports if they’re true are unacceptable, and the allegations are being taken very seriously by the administration. But I don’t have any announcements at this time with regard to anything that the Justice Department is doing,” Holder told reporters at a press conference.

“This is something on our radar screen at this point, but there is an investigation being done by the [VA] inspector general, and we’ll see what happens as a result of that inquiry and other information that comes to light in some form or fashion,” Holder added.

    In Eric Holder’s defense it is quite possible that he wants to wait for the results of these two investigations before he makes a decision on the case. However, this is the same regime that promised to find and bring to justice those who were responsible for the terrorist attack in Benghazi and to date nobody has been held accountable except for an American citizen who had some part in creating a video which had nothing to do with the attack so forgive me if I do not have confidence that anything will be done in this case either.
