The love bunnies were pimped by their mothers/stepmothers. They weren’t kidnapped. Social climbing without morality.
I think Judge N. is incorrect here - the judge in the trial specifically stated that Melendez can absent himself from the trial for his votes anytime he wishes - as any defendant can. His lawyer is still there to represent him.
As such the constitutional requirement to ensure the Senator can vote is being met. A trial delay isn’t required. The Senator can come and go during the trial as he pleases. The only exception is that he cannot be required to testify on days of votes, IF he choses to testify.
thank you for this information: “the judge in the trial specifically stated that Melendez can absent himself from the trial for his votes anytime he wishes.”
There was a Wall Street raider, Victor Posner, maybe? Any way, even the Palm Beach set started to give him the cold shoulder when he started "keeping company" with the daughter of one of his former "kept women".
Guess the novel/movie "Gigi" was pretty accurate.
