The father of a Washington woman slaughtered along with her new husband - allegedly at the hands of a convicted Bay State killer - said his daughters accused murderer never should have been released from prison here.
Its because of stupidity in Massachusetts that my daughter is dead, said Darrel Slater, 55, who is preparing to bury his daughter, Beverly Mauck, 28, and her husband Brian Mauck, 30.
The couple was executed in their home in rural Graham, Wash., Saturday after an alleged argument with Daniel Tavares Jr., 41, who in 1991 pleaded guilty to hacking his mother to death with a carving knife in their Somerset home in served 16 years for that crime.
This man hacked his own mother to death. What could have been going on in this judge’s mind?
B..Bu...But.. Mitt was listening to scientists explain cloning and it was at that moment that he underwent a complete political conversion.
STATE HOUSE, BOSTON, MAY 3, 2006 Some members of the Governor's Council continued to complain Wednesday that Gov. Mitt Romney is placing too many prosecutors on the bench, but they appear poised to approve one of them, Superior Court nominee Kathe Tuttman.A 17-year veteran of the Essex County district attorney's office, Tuttman currently heads the Family Crimes and Sexual Assault Unit there. The 54-year-old Andover resident acknowledged her shortcomings during Wednesday's hearing.
"I haven't had civil litigation experience," but as president of her synagogue, Tuttman said, she has been involved in negotiating several contracts and in rewriting the congregation's bylaws.
While Tuttman herself was not challenged by councilors about her prosecutorial background, such questions were directed to those who came to endorse her candidacy.
Councilor Christopher Iannella, one of the four lawyers who sit on the eight-member council, has been a constant critic of the administration's propensity to appoint judges who have spent most of their careers as federal or state prosecutors.
"I personally think we have too many," Iannella said, speculating that three out of every four Romney nominees have such backgrounds.
They look like they were a sweet couple.
She looks like she is part of Hillary’s group.
Willie Horton was better looking.
What the devil was she doing on something like that?
“A 17-year veteran of the Essex County district attorney’s office, Tuttman currently heads the Family Crimes and Sexual Assault Unit there”
Romanian Term Limits?
What chance would a Romney appointee who was a Republican have of getting approved in the State of Massholes?
Answer, NONE!!
“Im sorry, Im not able to comment on this” is typical lawyerly response. She can’t even say she’s sorry for what happened because that might be taken as an indication of guilt or error on her part. I looked for her email address, but interestingly, her judicial profile at www.mass.gov has been almost completely blanked out.
This guy should have been executed for murdering his mother.
This of course IS a huge problem in Massachusetts and seems never ending. When Republicans have to console themselves that they didn't lose this election or that election by too big a margin, it shows how whipped the party is there.
So that is a good reason not to try...
I hope his dedication at a national level is stronger than that...
I fear it won’t be, but I am sure you feel like it is worth the risk...
For me this disqualifies Mitt. Infuriating.
When a judge decides to release these types from prison, they should be required to live in that judge’s neighborhhod.
Tracy L. Lyons, whom Romney appointed at the same time as Tuttman, as associate justice of the Brighton division of the Boston Municipal Court, was (or is) a registered Republican. I believe she was approved.
A shame Hunter can't gain any traction at all and Fred has no fire in his belly.
