aka: The Continuing Saga of Ruling Class Justice
Ranting and raving probably doesn’t help much, but like a stiff double bourbon, it does provide temporary relief.
In the sewer pit known as the US justice system, yet another cockroach was exposed for abusing his power.
Back in January, Brooklyn Supreme Court Judge (read: lawyer with political connertions) Victor Barron (is his middle name Robber?) was nailed in a sting operation for shaking down a fellow liar in a bribe for $5 million civil lawsuit settlement exchange deal.
It seems the honorable judge solicited bribes from the complainant’s leach, Gary Berenholtz and was busted after accepting the first $18,000 installment of his $100,000 “You-wash-my-hands and I’ll-wash-yours” cost of doing business in my court fee.
Like all vermin caught in a trap, Judge Barron used his survival instincts and cut himself a nice plea deal with Brooklyn DA (read: a mid-level manager in our corrupt legal sysyem’s chain of command) Charlie Hynes. It includes:[ul][li]A 3-9 year sentence, of which he’ll probably serve 104 weeks of. And, The right to keep his $97,000 annual pension[/ul][/li]
This is pure, unadulterated maggot shit.
You abuse your office and your power & get caught taking advantage of our insane, sky’s the limit, tort system.
I’d bet my left arm (I see your arm and raise you a testicle) this isn’t the first case in which Victor Barron was on the take. My guess is most of the trial lawyers (read: slime) that come slithering through his chambers have paid the former judge’s payola fee after receiving their 1/3 of outrageous windfalls in his court.
I demand an investigation into all former plaintiffs and attorneys that have received a favorable judgement in his court.
And
Legislation introduced that bars all Government pensioners from receiving any and all tax-payer financed retirement benefits if found guilty of committing while in office.
And after that
Maybe we can try to tackle the other fraud and abuse that occurs daily in our legal system.
