Ridiculous situation. The judge needs to be fired.
You know, I think that is totally the wrong attitude. What he should need is extensive reconstructive surgery, and years of rehabilitation. Not to mention a colostomy bag, and Foley catheter, and IV nourishment. Don’t kill them, maim them, so they have time to think about what they did wrong, and no physical capability to do anything about it.
I am getting really, REALLY TIRED of waste like this... /rant
Nearly every cab driver in DC is from Sub-Saharan Africa. Surely to goodness the prosecutor could have found one who spoke this man’s language.
Unfortunately, you’d then probably be the one on trial...
It concerns me that I follow your logic.
If it was my kid he molested, he wouldnt need an interpretor, hed need an undertaker.
We think alike!(scary, isn’t it!!)

The old Sammy Sosa defense.
From what’s been written about this case, the judge and the court handling this case are grossly negligent.
I will play the gender card. The responsibility for this travesty falls on two women. I remember when women professed feminism, and crimes of rape were taken seriously, to the point of missionary zeal. Obviously, bureaucratic laziness and judicial sloppiness are not gender specific and have replaced ANY feminist zeal these two scumbags might have ever had. I am no feminist. I am a gentleman and I think rape is a horrendous crime and the rape of child even more horrendous. Liberals have pretty much taken rape off the board of hot issues when they blindly ignored the history of a serial rapist, named Slick Willie.
This is why English needs to be set as the default language so that their can be no abuse of justice like this. If English was the default language required for citizenship and the perpetrator spoke in English, there would have been no room for the Judge to let off this child rapist.
See what liberalism has brought us; just more and more degradation of the law. Remember, Bill Clinton as President said "it depends on what the definition of the word 'Is', 'Is'"
“She should be immediately taken off the bench.”
Can’t be done - she is a member of two ‘priviliged classes’. She is female, and she is a lawyer.

Why should voters elect you?
"Directly applicable experience and accrued knowledge as deputy clerk make me the proven candidate, passionate to make the clerk's office the best it can be."
What do you think is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
"The most urgent issue facing the clerk of court is to provide the public with easier access to court records and with safeguards against identity theft. In today's world of advanced technology, the clerk of the court must continue to progress toward a paperless courthouse. Currently, both the land records and the licensing department are close to being on the Internet completely. I want for everyone to be able to access the courthouse from the comfort of their own home or office and for attorneys to be able to save time and expense for their clients."
“Knight said the county spent nearly $1 million on interpreters last year, 10 times the amount it spent in 2000. “It’s a constant struggle, and it is extremely expensive,” she said.”
This, imho, is a huge problem. Also, this inept, liberal county, Montgomery County, spent nearly $1 million on interpreters, and they still couldn’t get it right in this case? The WP found an interpreter with a couple phone calls.
Gross overspending and government incompetence at work with our tax dollars.
This judge gives validity to the phrase “stench from the bench” (ò¿ó)
BUMP
On his 630 WMAL radio show this morning, Chris Core found potential interpreters in about thirty seconds.
Meanwhile Tom DeLay has not seen his day in court yet either because the prosecutor is dragging his heels.
