It’s starting to dribble out regarding Gupnik’s relationship with the Loughners and young Jared’s repeated death threats and drug arrests and how they were repeatedly “fixed” with no charges being filed.
We know he has already lawyered up and is no doubt hoping that making himself a Liberal drawing-room lion will get him immunity. That did not work for Mike Nifong or for that matter, former IL governor-now-jailbird George Ryan (the overnight anti-death-penalty activist governor).
He had already decided just last year to make himself the anti-Joe Arpaio (loudly refusing to enforce S.B.1070). He may be the lib hero of the hour but the truth will out.
He has had his 15 minutes. As soon as the dust settles, expect him to retire. “Spend more time with the family...write a book...” Doo dah, doo dah...
Missing from the interviews with Sheriff Dubiousnik: Why was Loughner never charged after his first or second drug arrests?
Loughner’s mother works for the Pima County Board of Supervisors. What political relationship do you, Sheriff of Pima County have with the suspect’s mother?
Was there any pressure not to prosecute?
