Massachusetts Judge CRIES After Being Charged With Helping An Undocumented Immigrant Evade ICE
The Daily Mail ^ | 04/26/19 | Michelle Curran

A Massachusetts judge has left court in tears after being indicted on obstruction of justice charges for allegedly helping an illegal immigrant evade immigration officials.

Judge Shelley M Richmond Joseph and trial court officer Wesley MacGregor are accused of conspiring to prevent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from taking an undocumented immigrant into custody at Newton District Court on April 2, 2018.

Joseph had allegedly ordered the courtroom recording device to be turned off for 52 seconds while she and the defendant Jose Medina-Perez's lawyer had a conversation about getting him out of the courthouse instead of handing him over to an ICE officer, according to the indictment. MacGregor allegedly used his access badge to release Medina-Perez through a rear door.

Joseph was seen crying when she left federal court in Boston Thursday.

According to CBS, Joseph's attorney Tom Hoopes said outside court: 'This prosecution is absolutely political, Shelley Joseph is absolutely innocent.'

Nixon was impeached for the missing minutes of tape.
How is this any different?

Tears? For what?
Oh, the huge manatee!

He scaled a fence and took off, leaving the immigration agent behind, the people said.

Not surprised.

If you are not listening to either Howie Carr or Jeff Kuhner out of WRKO am680 in Boston, you have no Idea what a mess Eastern MA is, my guess is Western MA is no picnic either.

* Moms and Dads calling in with the heartbreaking stories of loss of Children to drugs.
* the Scam of Puerto Rican ID's being stolen from the island and used to get primarily Dominicans on all sorts of assistance.
* The Gangs.
* Cops calling in dishing the dirt on all of the above and more
* Moonbat attorneys and DA's that are ok with all this and more, she just got caught.

Don't let your kids go to College in the State, keep them the heck out...

Ahhh...my apologies poconopundit...I was pinged by someone on another Peggy Noonan related thread where this article was seen: "Whatever Happened to Peggy Noonan's Brain" where that quote came from.

I think I just got the threads mixed up-sorry for the confusion!

Sad thing is, Taildragger, there are a lot of other states, a lot of other colleges, a lot of other court systems where this is the same.

I live in MA, so I know how putrid the schools, political systems and courts are here.

It is good to remember that this is a country wide problem and needs to be combatted that way.

Thanks for the link, rlmorel.

Actually my vanity (May, 2017) serves as a decent explanation of why Trump let a bull into the ambassador’s club fine dining room.

Trump the Diplomat: Art of the Global Deal

Bottom line: Peggy Noonan is a career Washingtonian. And you don’t get invited to parties in Washington if you support Trump. She treasures cocktail hours with the old ambassadors and could care less for the Republic that her mentor, Ronald Reagan was trying to save.

Trump is not owned by anyone: one of the big reasons he’s so loved by We the People and hated by “We the Elite and Corrupt Ambassadors and George-Will-Types”.

Where were her tears for all the kids the illegal sold drugs to that ruined their life!

* * *

Good analysis, caww. The evil inflicted on those kids wasn’t seen, but it very much exists.

And what’s a female Judge doing wearing a mini-skirt anyway?

Thank you, taildragger. Born on Cape Cod and spent 20 years in the Boston ‘burbs. I have a few relatives there and most are flaming liberals.

They reap what they sow. Love Howie Carr and Kuhner.

Judges are like lawyers and medical professionals; they don’t like going after each other because they’re afraid that they themselves will get caught on something.

That said, she should be doing time in the Fed system.

She was willing to break laws, so she should be willing to pay the price for her ‘resistance’ to anything.

Poor, poor Peggy. She’s searching for the circle cut out in which she can fit her square peg. A puzzle piece searching for a secure fit. Peggy’s not so clean, either (remembering the charge of plagiarism directed toward her some years ago.)

She was a useful idiot but was too damned arrogant and traitorous to figure that out.

Hi, A_perfect_lady-!
“Women like this are why, for years, men felt that women did not have the moral maturity to take part in the legal system. All that feminine compassion was meant to be directed toward their family, and perhaps homeless animals. Not criminals.”
________________________________________________

On the flip side, are the male judges who in the past repeatedly allowed Drunk Drivers (over and over, again!) back out on the roads. Because of those male judges, MADD came about and eventually became a political powerhouse and helped to ensure some very tight road tests that should not be allowed to be done.

While I tend to agree that female judges react emotionally instead of logically, it’s been shown that male judges react pretty much the same way in their excuses for sexual predatory cases and as I said earlier, drunk driving cases.

Like all the way back to the garden of Eden, the genders each have their own weaknesses.

Her social bubble is all SJW, giving her the illusion she is part of something brave and progressive. Now, she looks around and sees nothing but adversaries. It’s a special kind of WOKE that won’t let you go back to sleep.

It’s a good start.

We need a couple thousand more of these. Then replace them with hangin’ judges.

Maybe that’s “the plan”.

Don’t forget the illegal alien, Diddier Pacheco Salazar, was let out of an employee’s exit, in an Oregon, Multnomah County Courthouse, by the Judge Monica Herranz, to allude the ICE agents waiting in the hallway.

Things were hushed up and taken care of internally...never to be seen again. Fortunately, Senior Salazar, was later arrested on a DUI.

There are conservatives up here, but they have stacked the deck and finagled the political systems up here to a point it will likely never go back.

I was on my way to a doctor’s appointment several weeks back, and I saw a guy on a busy intersection of two six lane roads at rush hour, so there were a LOT of cars, and the guy had a sign that said “Support our Military”, my kind of sign, so I honked and gave him a thumbs up...he saw it, returned it, and flipped his sign around so it said “Trump WON fair and square! Get Over It!’

There must have been Leftist heads popping off in cars all around me!

If I hadn’t had to get to my appointment, I would have definitely pulled off and stood with him for a while!

All my friends are conservatives, so I know we exist!
