Parsky's daughter? you're kidding.
As for Parsky, her father is a GOP kingmaker in California with long-standing ties to President Bush. He's currently a member of the UC Board of Regents and for years was a major power in the state Republican party.
Laura Parsky, 37, has been working for the Justice Department in Washington, D.C., in recent years, where she was a protege of Michael Chertoff, the former high-ranking Justice Department official who's now head of Homeland Security.
The soon-to-be judge has been a regular on Capitol Hill, where as a deputy assistant attorney general she has been the government's point person on such high-profile issues as cybercrime, electronic surveillance and other technology issues.
A graduate of Yale University with a law degree from UC Berkeley, Laura Parsky will become a Superior Court judge in San Diego County. She is registered as decline-to-state.
