'I wonder, is there something special about Paul Manafort?' one former federal prosecutor asked.
Elizabeth de la Vega, a former Northern California assistant U.S. attorney in the criminal division, questioned if intervention from top Justice Department officials would be replicated for other"federal prisoners being held at Rikers while facing state charges.
"It is unusual that it did arise from the [Deputy] Attorney General's office," he observed."I don't think it's appropriate." "Usually those things come down by word of mouth," he said."Somebody says, 'hey, make this happen.' And there's eventually going to be something in writing, but certainly not something from the deputy attorney general."
