---
Miles Matthews was the Executive Officer of the Criminal Division within the [[Department of Justice|DOJ]]. He was implicated in allegations surrounding the [[PROMIS Software Scandal]].
According to a source of [[Ronald LeGrand]], Matthews was one of three senior DOJ officials, along with [[James Knapp]] and [[James Johnston]], whom [[Lowell Jensen]] allegedly relied upon to engineer [[INSLAW|Inslaw]]'s problems. LeGrand's source claimed that Matthews stated in his presence that "Lowell [Jensen] wants to get INSLAW out of the way and give the business to friends."[^1]
However, when interviewed by the Special Counsel, Miles Matthews denied ever making such a statement or believing that Lowell Jensen wanted to harm Inslaw or favor certain businesses. He also denied ever hearing of procurement documents regarding [[Project Eagle]] being improperly shredded. Matthews stated he had never met or had any contact with [[Earl Brian]], [[Hadron]], [[Dominic Laiti]], [[Simeon]], or [[Accumenics]]. The Special Counsel's investigation found no credible evidence to support the allegations against Matthews or any connection between him and a conspiracy related to Inslaw or PROMIS.[^1]
