We hardly have any murders at all in our county. Two reversals is really a very poor commentary on our judges. The Deason judge has not been a judge here all that long and he can already chalk up one. Who was the judge on the other one, I would like to know if anyone out there is aware. I remember reading about the other one and that he will be out of jail in a year or two as a result of the plea bargain that Hopkins made with him. But who was the judge? - calcuby Fri, 28 Dec 2007 11:06:23 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/2736/919/#comment-2533 Was it not this same arrogance that built the great rail roads! Could it not be more about wanting my little piece of the pie: the pie of power! The Divine right of kings; the ends justifies the means; let them eat cake! Our arrogance as a society has spawned an arrogant government; a government where might makes right! Hopefully we will not lose the appellate courts system; because judges are not infallible. They are just people entrusted to interpret the law as they see it; in a court of law. Some are conservatives and others are liberals; our courts are only a reflection of where we are as a society at any given time. What needs to happen here locally is the stomping out of the abuse of power that these local politicians; and those they employ; the county employees think we are willing to tolerate. Anita Grant; who happens to be legal council for the county can not ignore abuse of power once it has been brought to her attention; but you better have your ducks in a row as this is not an easy hoop to jump through. You have to do all the work for her before she will take any action. You have to have a well documented case before she is willing to take any action; sometimes that means one has to seek out their own legal council before even approaching the government at all for even the slightest of grievances. Make no mistake about it; the level of abuse of power within this local government run ramped; if you are being abused by this government you had better well document everything from the onset in writing; verbal communiqué will never suffice. - get smart Mon, 24 Dec 2007 17:40:21 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/2736/919/#comment-2528 Is what its called,And our short memories, to top it off apathy of the voters. The law is so justice is insured. Justice is never served by those that put their will before the Constitution. This person has lost the reason we ask him to take the oath of office. In Lake County we have a system of no accoutability.Persons can lie be aided by politicians so lies are covered up. I have found no legal controling authority in Lake County so far.Merry Christmas all and hope we can serve the arrogant cake next year. - James Mon, 24 Dec 2007 11:23:21 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/2736/919/#comment-2527 kidding. The defendant has a history of alcohol abuse that the DA was aware of even tho they didn\'t present it at trial, instead finding the rational of \'he got drunk after the shooting\' more convenient. And really Mr. DA, your head is spinning cause the appelate court didn\'t necessarily see a cast iron skillet as a deadly weapon?? Can I call the office and arrange turning myself in, I have a cabinet of \'deadly weapons\'(I\'m gonna miss them, cast iron takes a little effort to get seasoned right). I think the real deadly weapon we the people need to fear is piss poor government. - Donna Christopher Mon, 24 Dec 2007 11:11:42 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/2736/919/#comment-2526 So that is two reversals in two murder cases. More money wasted and more jury verdicts null and void because the DA can\'t get it right and doesn\'t want fair trials for people. They are out to win, not to seek justice. Regarding Hopkins and the problem with his head: I think his head is spinning for one of two reasons: 1. He is a complete idiot. Or, 2. He has a demon who has taken up residence inside his body. Can we vote? I am going with #1. Too bad really because #2 could have been cured with a decent exorcism. As it is, we have an idiot for a DA. - calcuby Mon, 24 Dec 2007 10:39:31 +0100
