Judges blame weak cases, prosecutors blame lenient judges; defense lawyers blame an overzealous district attorney.

An arrest does not mean guilt. Overzealous cops and prosecutors combined with fair judges would give a high dismissal rate.

Example - the Christians arrested at the homosexual event - dismissed.

Massiah-Jackson.

One Clinton judicial appointment was in the news in the Philadelphia area in late March when the appointee, Frederica Massiah-Jackson, withdrew her nomination after it became clear during Senate Judiciary Committee hearings that she would not be approved. Now, that's really something, for the Politically Correct U.S. Senate to balk at approving a judge who is not only female but also Black.

Actually, the Senate already had approved her appointment last fall, shortly after Clinton nominated her. In the recent Senate hearings her appointment was being reconsidered. How did that come about? Let me tell you.

For the past 15 years Massiah-Jackson has been a judge on Philadelphia's Court of Common Pleas, and she's made quite a reputation for herself as a Black racist who always sides with Black defendants -- and in Philadelphia that means most criminal defendants. She curses and swears at White prosecutors and lawyers in the courtroom, but that's not the reason they persuaded the Senate to reconsider its approval of her nomination and then showed up at the Senate hearings to testify against her; what motivated them is her habit of refusing to convict or to punish Black career criminals. Philadelphia prosecutors cited case after case in which her behavior in the courtroom was so outrageous as to be almost beyond belief.

Judicial Insanity
