We have 2 new members of the Court of Common Pleas in Luzerne County. Bill Amesbury won both party nominations in May and Tina Gartley came in second on the Democratic side virtually ensuring their election in the fall. Yet another reason to get rid of cross filing in judicial and school board races in the primary when the fewest people vote. That is not a shot at Gartley or Amesbury as I think they are good people. It is a shot at the Wilkes-Barre Area School Directors who recently selected an accused criminal as Board President but that is another subject.
I will give props to our esteemed jurists for selecting the only Republican on the bench, Tom Burke, as the new President Judge. Burke just won his retention vote despite my urging of a no vote on him and PPO-2 on principle. My lawyer friends tell me he is one of the best people on the bench and will hopefully continue the efforts of Chet Muroski to clean up the mess. I still find it hard to believe that these guys didn't know what was going on in Ciavarella's courtroom. Muroski says he went to FBI about the shenanigans going on in the courthouse but Ann Lokuta was the only one to put it in writing. For her efforts Michael Conahan orchestrated a campaign to remove her from the bench that the Court of Judicial Discipline has upheld in an apparent case of CYA.

Was Muroski discussing this with the feds at Miller Time?

How come no one else crashed on the patch of black ice that Muroski crashed on?
It's bad enough they're throwing our kids in their private jails for cash, gaming underinsured court cases, staying at gansters' condos in Florida...now they're taking out our mailboxes!!!!!!!!!!!
Czesiu walks because he handled it and knows how. Anyone else who would appear before him for the same thing goes to the klink.
Time to get rid of Czesiu and get a younger man.
MADD where are you when WE NEED YOU MOST?
Wake up MADD and you wake up DDAMM .... Dunk Drivers Againt Mad Mothers.
Did you hear Muroski singing How Dry I Am to Sue Henry today? She falls for anything syrupy and gives him a pass
first time i ever agreed with Corbett, Chet needs to retire from the bench. I've seen him speak several times this year and I have no doubt that his best days are way behind him. On the radio, he sounded like a "poor me" cry baby.
Hey Gort, after reading your last few posts, I agree, you need a break!
big crash probably black ice, not far from the judges accident.

10:30 Maybe from Muroski pissing all over the road after all the days booze
And how about that Tina? She announced her staff and not a man among them. I head stories during the campaign that she was anti male and one of those radical feminist so it appears her personal all female staff verifies the rumors. One Annie was enough, let's keep an eye on Tina and see how she conducts herself. Her rulings will be interesting and worth watching. I bet Corbett had an orgasm when he heard about the all female staff. What does Tina have in common with Anie? Word on the street is that they both got fired from previous jobs. I wondered shy Tina did not play off of her law firm experiences.
