Now you already know why they don’t permit cameras within the federal courts.
They don’t need everyone discovering out simply how corrupt the judicial system is, high to backside. If folks may watch extra of those high-profile trials, and even simply stream the audio on-line as they’re driving round, are you aware how outraged they’d turn out to be?
About as outraged because the voters in Norfolk County are after watching the tried lynching of Karen Learn.
Choose Beverly Cannone’s appalling conduct was virtually past parody, her prejudices so out within the open, her dedication to guard her beloved hackerama so apparent.
On Wednesday evening, after the decision, Opinion Diagnostics did a fast ballot of registered voters in Norfolk County. Solely 18 % of the respondents accredited of Choose Auntie Bev’s conduct within the case.
Eighteen % — that should symbolize how many individuals within the pattern didn’t watch a second of the trial, as a result of if they’d, they’d be as disgusted as the opposite 82 % about how desperately the hacks had been attempting to border an harmless lady, to guard themselves and their vile fellow payroll patriots.
The day after the decision, I requested Alan Jackson, the lead legal professional for the protection, if he’d had any doubts about his skill to get a good trial for his consumer.
“I used to be in huge doubt,” he stated. “Did I doubt whether or not I may get a good trial? Nearly each single minute of each single day.”
He talked about how one in all his witnesses, more than likely Dr. Marie Russell, the very plausible knowledgeable on canine bites, was virtually prevented from telling the jury some very fundamental truths concerning the wounds on the sufferer’s arm.
“That is nonetheless stunning to me,” Jackson stated. “Each query I requested was objected to by Hank Brennan, and one hundred pc of his objections had been sustained. I’ve by no means seen that in 30 years of apply. Actually, 49 objections and 49 sustained objections.”
That sort of gross miscarriage of justice by no means occurs on Netflix, does it? However that is actual life. In Norfolk County, no less than.
“Discuss attempting to maintain the data from the jurors! I needed to ask the questions 17 occasions in 5 totally different instructions to get the data in entrance of the jury. I’ve by no means had a scenario the place the choose sustained each single objection by the prosecution. Statistically, that’s inconceivable.”
Besides in a Norfolk County courtroom.
“I didn’t really feel this was an neutral choose,” he continued. “I simply didn’t. I don’t assume anyone who was watching would argue with that. This was essentially the most difficult case I’ve ever tried in my life. We didn’t win due to the method. We received regardless of the method that was put in place in that Dedham courtroom. It was a travesty, an absolute travesty.”
Would Jackson wish to say something to the choose?
“Do higher,” he stated. “Don’t attempt to put your thumb on the size. No choose ought to ever attempt to put your thumb on the size.”
Besides in Massachusetts. Right here it’s SOP — normal working process.
As a result of he lives in California and doesn’t apply a lot right here, Jackson may afford to be extra candid than native attorneys. However even he stated, “I’ve to watch out…”
The issue is, if a lawyer publicly calls out a choose over their appalling conduct, the repercussions may be extreme. You don’t even should be a lawyer. After I was jammed up in a civil case involving a radio contract a number of years again, I had the regulation on my facet. However not the judges.
As one of many legal professionals for my foes sneeringly informed me, “You assume any choose in Massachusetts goes to present you a good shake after what you’ve written about them?”
Unhappy to say, he was proper. This state sucks, what can I say?
Within the halls of justice, the one justice is within the halls. As I all the time say, it’s not that each one Massachusetts judges are corrupt. It’s simply that 98% of them who give such a nasty identify to the opposite 2%.
And assume what they will do to a practising lawyer. Karen Learn’s native legal professional, David Yannetti, needs to be much more prudent in his feedback about this latest travesty of justice in Dedham.
As a distinct lawyer texted me Friday:
“If a Mass. atty. dared to complain of the outrageous antics of Choose Bev to the Judicial Conduct Fee, the legal professional who complained could be blackballed by all the state judiciary. Incontrovertible fact. That lawyer and regulation agency will not obtain any kind of favorable judgments and rulings and all circumstances will go towards them for daring to reveal judicial malfeasance. That is how the mob generally known as the Mass. judiciary will get to thrive and bastardize justice.
“P.S. Search for odd judicial rulings towards Yannetti in any future state circumstances his agency has.”
I hope not. However one factor we all know for certain: Nothing goes to occur to Auntie Bev. Hell, even Choose Shelley Joseph just isn’t going to get greater than a slap on the wrist for letting a profession legal unlawful alien drug vendor out the again door of her court docket home. She didn’t miss a single paycheck. The taxpayers paid for her total authorized protection after she was indicted by the feds.
Joseph is the quintessential state choose — complete political hack, a former member of the Democrat State Committee from Brookline. Discuss checking all of the packing containers…
It’s ironic, isn’t it, {that a} bunch of legal professionals who had been ravenous to loss of life in non-public apply can scrape collectively sufficient money to purchase themselves judgeships (it’s authorized to make “contributions” to politicians), after which get to journey roughshod over precise productive members of society who can help themselves.
It beats working. For this reason so many judges are the kids of judges, or associated to politicians, or former state hacks of 1 type or one other. And behind that no-heavy-lifting $207,882 sinecure comes the pension.
Think about the chief justice of the Supreme Judicial Courtroom, Kimberly Budd, a $232,101-a-year second-generation hack.
Right here’s a latest headline about Budd:
“Chief Justice Kimberly Budd desires to restore belief in courts.”
Okay, right here’s a suggestion for her — discover some approach to do away with Choose Cannone. She’s past a humiliation.
Or no less than inform Auntie Bev to cease placing her thumb on the size of justice, though from what we’ve seen over the previous few weeks, she had much more than her thumb on the size.
It’s the hackerama.
