State's Attorney In Baltimore Who Would Prosecute ACORN Filmmaker Is A Partisan Obama Supporter

State's Attorney for Baltimore City Patricia Jessamy, an Obama supporter who worked on the Maryland For Obama Steering Committee...

This is the Statement the Attorneys Office released on the undercover ACORN video from James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles late yesterday:

STATEMENT OF STATE’S ATTORNEYS OFFICE FOR BALTIMORE CITY RELATIVE TO THE ALLEGED BALTIMORE ACORN INCIDENT Baltimore, MD – September 11, 2009 – We have received inquiries from citizens and the media asking whether the Baltimore City State’s Attorneys Office would initiate a criminal investigation for acts allegedly committed at ACORN offices located in Baltimore. The only information received in reference to this alleged criminal behavior was a YouTube video. Upon review by this office, the video appears to be incomplete. In addition, the audio portion could possibly have been obtained in violation of Maryland Law, Annotated Code of Maryland Courts and Judicial Proceedings Article §10-402, which requires two party consent.

If it is determined that the audio portion now being heard on YouTube was illegally obtained, it is also illegal under Maryland Law to willfully use or willfully disclose the content of said audio. The penalty for the unlawful interception, disclosure or use of it is a felony punishable up to 5 years. (Makes the case for prosecuting the filmaker, not the crimes in the video)

Article written about Jessamy on the State's Attorney's website...

stattorney.org Patricia Coats Jessamy, 57, has been the top prosecutor in Baltimore for a decade now, but the lessons she learned as a young civil rights activist have stuck, molding her sometimes controversial approach to the job. Jessamy's employees say she doesn't wear her past on her sleeve or use it for self-promotion. But she exudes a maternal demeanor and talks frequently about the value she places on education and tolerance.

It causes "a pain in my heart," she says, to see black men in shackles and chains lined up each morning outside Baltimore's Clarence M. Mitchell Jr. Courthouse, named for a civil rights leader. "I knew if I wanted things to be different, I would have to make it so."

Lady...you are in the WRONG job! It should cause “a pain in your heart” to realize that for every one of those poor black men in shackles, that there is one or more victims asking YOU for some justice.

This ObamaCom piggy needs to RECUSE herself right now! This isn’t the way justice is supposed to work in America. This is Soviet Union and Third Reich stuff.

Heh. Meanwhile, real criminals running rampant in Baltimore have turned the city into a crime-ridden $#!+hole. Even the Inner Harbor has become a dump that you want to avoid. Don't forget that Baltimore usually ranks right behind Detroit in terms of murder rates and still ranks quite high in terms of crime overall.

Of course, the state's attorney has "bigger" fish to fry.

The web of corruption of the King Obama and his machine touches most all of America in a way that there is no law or punishment for RATS. The most they will get is a slap on the wrist if anything at all. America is consumed by a communists organization that may never be broken.

From Leftipedia: Patricia Coats Jessamy is the chief prosecutor for the City of Baltimore, Maryland and the first African American woman to hold that position. She was appointed to head the Office of the State's Attorney in 1995 and has won three elections since.

So, how about an open and honest discussion about how race plays into this? Is this about tribal politics? Has America's election of a "post racial" president all been a con job? Are we headed for the same wonderful fate as South Africa: one man, one vote, one time?

This non-lawyer will go out on a limb and say that the Maryland law quoted above does not cover said audio being recorded in person.

Baltimore has one of the highest rates of violent crime and drug trafficking in the country. This useless leftist and many others like her are a big part of the reason why. Wake up America. Can't you see that the government is on the side of the criminals and is not working to protect you and your family.
