I agree Sandy D'Alemberte 
is probably a big pussy, but common courtesy requires to still refer to him with masculine pronouns.

Yesterday I posted about how Alan Dershowitz alleged that Zimmerman prosecutor Angela Corey called up Harvard Law School complaining about Dershowitz and treatening to sue for libel based on Dershowitz’s criticisms of her handling of the case.
The whole incident seemed strange, and reflected conduct that should be off limits for any prosecutor and certainly for a senior prosecutor on a high profile case.
It appears, however, that the Dershowitz incident was no isolated incident. According to Ron Littlepage, a columnist for the (Jacksonville) Florida Times-Union, Corey has done this several times before:
"Last December when I wrote a column critical of how she handled the Cristian Fernandez case, she fired off a two-page, single-spaced letter on official state attorney letterhead hinting at lawsuits for libel.In the letter, she called me out for my “lack of knowledge and objectivity about the workings of the criminal justice system.” Ouch. I think she called me stupid….
Then there’s Corey’s spat with Sandy D’Alemberte.
D’Alemberte is a former president of the American Bar Association, a former president of Florida State University and a law professor — not too shabby in the legal credentials department.
When Corey was appointed to head up the investigation into the shooting death of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman, D’Alemberte had this to say:
“I cannot imagine a worse choice for a prosecutor to serve in the Sanford case. There is nothing in Angela Corey’s background that suits her for the task, and she cannot command the respect of people who care about justice.”
Earlier, D’Alemberte had criticized Corey in the Fernandez case. The reaction then: A public records request from her office to FSU seeking all emails, text messages and phone messages involving D’Alemberte related to Fernandez.
Then there was this:
When David Utter of the Southern Poverty Law Center was on Melissa Ross’s radio program and had the audacity to say that Fernandez should be in the juvenile system instead of adult court, that prompted a 20-minute scream-fest from Corey in a call to the center’s director.
Similar criticism from Jeff Goldhagen, a professor and chief of the division of community pediatrics at Shands Jacksonville, elicited a similar response from Corey."
Something appears to be rotten in the state of Zimmerman prosecution.
Anyway how material can these arguably inconsistent statements be that cannot be explained away by the headbashing he took that night???
How many people who have their head bashed onto a concret sidewalk edge and then have their nose broken and face repeatedly hit are going to be thinking 100% clear?
Where is the bar complaint against corey?
We'll see about the inconsistencies within his own statements to police, once his statements to police are made public.
As for the inconsistencies being the basis for Serino thinking Zimmerman should be charged, the parts of the record that I've read say otherwise. You contend the basis for the DTs opinion was inconsistencies within GZs own statements to police. It's up to you to support your contention.
“I cannot imagine a worse choice for a prosecutor to serve in the Sanford case. There is nothing in Angela Corey’s background that suits her for the task, and she cannot command the respect of people who care about justice.”
I'm sure her answer will be: "I told you so".
It's a question we should keep asking the Florida State Attorney general, RINO Pam Bondi
She's a in Romney's quiver
.
The American Bar Association has nothing to do with lawyer regulation. They are a 100% voluntary organization and the vast majority of lawyers are not members.
The party to contact is the Florida Bar section on lawyer regulation and their ethics department.
Bondi is another failure.
she caved to the banks regarding bank fraud.
She is just camera pretty. She was elected but that is not enough to get the job done.
She should be primaried.
The most amusing thing is seeing the bleeding hearts here on FR echoing the initial criticism of progressive commentators
“I cannot imagine a worse choice for a prosecutor to serve in the Sanford case. There is nothing in Angela Corey’s background that suits her for the task, and she cannot command the respect of people who care about justice.”"justice" here meant going easy on juveniles and minorities who commit acts of violence. And as juveniles and minorities are the ones mainly committing acts of violence. the progressives did not like her.
Can you provide evidence for that statement??? evidence -- not hearsay.
.
That appears to be who she was and is, and why she had the support of the law and order crowd for her election. After this case, many of those convictions may have to be revisited. Her bio on wiki is not particularly flattering, especially the Marissa Alexander episode.
I agree Sandy D'Alemberte is probably a big pussy, but common courtesy requires to still refer to him with masculine pronouns.
The basis for SPD suggesting charging was neither of the doubts about details of Zimmerman's account. The Serino affidavit transmitted to Wolfinger cites Zimmerman to blame on account of either getting out of his truck (if he hadn't, the event doesn't occur), or, in the alternative, if Zimmerman had explained to Martin that he was a watchman or something like that.
I can't find any evidence for the contention that SPD justified an opinion to charge, using the doubts about the two details NYT reported, or any other inconsistency in Zimmerman's statements.

The Trayvon Martin Case, Update 11: The Dee Dee Interview–Kaboom!

Marissa Alexander deserved to be convicted, IMO. I don’t think she deserves 20 years, but her account was not believed, and is not believable. Her conduct after being released on bond was to again, against court orders, confront her hubby or ex (whatever he was). I don’t think she was trying to shoot him, but I do not believe she had any need to fire the gun in the house.
I think you're right. It's starting to look like the Prosecution has pretty much ......... nothing. Even this perjury thing will probably fizzle out,
Magic Bullet redux ?
"I think she is an unprincipled hack who sincerely believes Zimmerman is bad."
It's fairly obvious you can exchange anyone's name -that has the gaul to critique her- for Zimmerman. The woman is unhinged.
Thank you for that. Good remarks about de la Rionda’s interview of DeeDee. She’s not helpful to the prosecution.
My apologies to his wife.
Sure...right after you provide the proof that TM attacked GZ. You know, the proof you’ve been ducking for weeks.
