  1. Bernie,

    Another sad day in Pa.
    If the present leadership in State Government can't see that this is almost epidemic to State Government positions than they should resign.
    The entire System needs reformed. Where is the Gov, and Senate leadership?

  2. Bernie,

    She was also evicted and banned from her Pitsburgh Office.

    The locks were also changed on the office to keep her from using State equipment, However she will receive her Salary of $195,000.00 until she is convicted!

  4. There are many more judges that have chamber payoffs going on in pennsyilvania. The biggist problem is they think they are above the law, have forgot why they worked so hard fo there positions that are held in high esteem. This is all because its all about money as the say, but the decisions are at the cost to the public.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
