I was afraid of that. Liberal judges don't rule on the basis of law. They interpret the law the way they want the law to be.
One Justice - Bobby Bridge- had a DUI (0.21), hit and run (hit a parked car with her Mercedes) in 2003 . She "apologized" and got to keep her job.
Same deal in WI except it's our State Attorney General. ehh? What's the big deal? She's just the chief law enforcement official for the state. She said "I will accept the consequences and take responsibility for my actions," but she didn't step down.
They recently ruled that if you killed someone during an assault, it wasn't a felony murder if you didn't intend to kill the victim.
I'm really sorry to hear that. It sounds like a bad joke. I'd like to think WI voters would recall legislators for something like that. I expect WA residents who are incensed by there legislators will move, and those who don't move will be accidentally murdered. Keep your powder dry.
Bobby Brige was let off by the then Attorney General Gregoire.
Yes, it is a power club they have going. They stand to lose all they have built up, the palatial digs in gated communities, the subsidies for upkeep, the memberships to exclusive clubs, the getaways to Palm Springs in Winter, the power to award contracts to cronies, and on and on etc.
It really is a corrupt group.
