A lot about Alito
The ever-alert Tom Mighell passes along this handy AskSam database of over 350 of Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito's published opinions, which can be viewed either online or after a download. Between this database and this previously-noted University of Michigan Law Library site, there is not much that you cannot find out about Judge Alito, whose confirmation hearing is scheduled to take place in January, 2006.

Tom,
A very useful link and interesting software.
Given your concern about governmental abuses in prosecution, are you opposing Alito? Have you read his opinion in United States v. Balter, 91 F.3D 427, where he approves of a prosecutor's contact with a defendant known to be represented by counsel.
Even the 8th Circuit got this issue correct. United States ex rel O'Keefe v. McDonnell Douglas Corporation, No. 97-2261 (8th Cir. 01/06/1998)
