Although Jim Gregory's contempt hearing was scheduled for today, it was continued until next Friday at 11 AM. Gregory asked for the continuance, telling Judge Zito he has funds to hire his own lawyer. He will remain incarcerated until the matter is heard. The probation office has lodged a retainer that will keep Gregory there, even if he makes bail.
People making their way to the courtroom had to pass through a gauntlet with Tricia Mezzacappa and IRA wannabe Michael Holmes catcalling those they dislike. That naturally included me. But when Mezzacappa began to taunt this time, I turned to her and said, "Willlllllllllbbbuuuuuurrrrrrrr."
While waiting for Judge Zito, Gregory kept turning around and staring at his ex, shaking his head. I was seated right in front of her and could see his malevolent stare. In an orange jumpsuit and shackled, he was as arrogant as ever.
Judge Zito had been on vacation all week, but ended it early because of this and other matters. Today, his primary concern was to ensure that Gregory had a lawyer. Some years ago, then President Judge Robert Freedberg ruled that defendants in contempt PFAs were entitled to a public defender if they applied or were incarcerated. The current President Judge, Stephen Barratta, has a different opinion. But Judge Zito was taking no chances.
He had two public defenders, Tony Rybak and Dwight Danser, and was ready to appoint one of them.
But before that happened, Gregory told Judge Zito he would provide his own counsel and had the money for one. He tried to imply that prominent Easton Attorney Gary Asteak would still represent him, but then read a letter from Asteak into the record that revealed, quite clearly, that Asteak is done with him, partially because he simply does not listen..
Gregory wants time for his lawyer to gather witnesses to refute five contempt citations that are "outrageous, outlandish, insane and incorrect."
After the hearing, Gregory supporter Mike Holmes was briefly questioned by two deputies about filming the proceedings or goings on in the hallway, which apparently was reported by an attorney. Holmes became very belligerent, and began insulting everyone.
Gregory was hollering out commands to Mezzacappa as he was carted away.
"What am I gonna' tell my boys?" he yelled on his way down the corridor.

Free Jim Gregory! Once he is lawyers assemble, he will be free and this woman's charges will all be tossed.
ReplyDeleteImagine how stoked Spartacus must be to have the slab back in PC, he will have Jim wearing kool-aid lipstick and makeshift shower heels poste haste while he does the Gregory rock!
ReplyDeleteBernie boy, IRA wannabe??
ReplyDeleteso stupid, GEEZ GROW up!!
I was just being Harassed again by the SS cell phone pigs, and that's why they could not do anything!
You say I became very belligerent, and began insulting everyone???
another lie from you because I didnt,
If I did that I be under arrest right now.
You also say I was catcalling those they dislike. That naturally included me.
I didn't say one word about anyone Including your fat ass.
So stop the lying fat boy and crawl back under the rock you came from.
You don't remember me Bernie do you?? I remember you and all the Racist jokes
you would always make when drinking, and I remember all the perverted sick fantasies you talked about in the bar
with your friends.
SICK, SICK, SICK!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe you're not in jail yet, They will get you one day sicko.
Mr. Gregory may not have ever encountered a situation that he couldn't influence by acting out.
ReplyDeleteJustice wiil Prevail. Have Faith in the Process.
Tricia's behavior at Jim's hearing's is escalating into a security threat in the Courthouse.
Mr. Holmes,
ReplyDeleteStop self-medicating,
Sincerely,
Everyone Else
p.s.
If in fact you are NOT self-medicating, please consider it, cause whatever you're doing ain't working.

MAN DO YOU STINK BAD
Mr.Holmes is a criminal defendant on misdemeanor charges, not surprisingly, of harassment. His trial is scheduled for September 9. I believe he intends to represent himself.
ReplyDeleteI am a Defendant in a fraudulent criminal charge brought against me out of friendship with a DA.
ReplyDeleteGet your story straight bernie boy
What lawyer in his right mind would take on jg?
ReplyDelete"What am I gonna' tell my boys?" he yelled on his way down the corridor."
ReplyDeleteSince you have no boys, no need to say anything. You married a woman with grown sons. I am sure their real father is thrilled with your assertion. But you could be honest and tell "his" boys, you are a douche bag like me.
Bernie likes dwelling on other peoples misfortune to makeup for his useless self. Thank god, your father must be proud
ReplyDeleteLast time I checked, he was dead.
ReplyDeleteThank god he can't see what youve become
DeleteHis "boys" refers to his cellmates. And JG is their toy.
ReplyDeleteThis Holmes guy seems to have the craziness of JG and TM combined! He seems to cherish his role as up and coming contender for the blogoshere whacko crown.
It will be short-lived. I suspect he's going away soon.
ReplyDeleteContinued? Damnit!
ReplyDeleteNow I have to make all those phone calls and cancel Jim's going away party until next week.
I can't imagine having Mezzacappa and Holmes present to support me, if I were in Gregory's position. One has been convicted of similar shit Gregory is in front of a judge about and the other is going to appear before a judge.
ReplyDeleteThat isn't real helpful, or Mensan.
You people need to stop worrying about Jimmy. He is under my protective wing. I have his back!

Your delight in other peoples misfortune will only come back to haunt you
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of delight in others' misfortune, it appears a certain libelous blog is unsurprisingly at it again, spewing more venom in the direction of Gregory's ex (that poor woman!) and, of course, Bernie.
ReplyDelete"Beware of XXXX @#$%^&&: A Slut Who Says She Needs Protection From Abuse That is 35 Miles Away"
ReplyDeleteThe newest from WEF. You are featured prominently Bernie. You are portrayed as a serial rapist and animal abuser with blueberry balls.
I think Tricia is mad at you.
"@Clinton. You were not there so how do u know?"
ReplyDeleteI accept the veracity of Mr. O'Hare's reporting as Truthfull.
Most criminal defendant's immediately become Johnny Cochran-esque, in defense of their alledged criminal conduct. Sometime's it is Best to just admit that you are caught.
Wow. Just when you think Mezzacappa can't get any kRaZiER or infantile, she shoots off another volley of harassment against a woman under the courts' protection.
ReplyDeleteGregory's ex needs to ask the DA for help in prosecuting this woman on multiple counts of harassment and anything else her sick blog and sicker mind warrants.
And Mezzacappa blames everybody else for not being able to land a job? Any employer reading her blog can see she is mentally ill and dangerous to have around others.
Once he is lawyers assemble, he will be free and this woman's charges will all be tossed.
ReplyDeleteOf course he will be freed and the charges tossed. I know it as well as I know that the Pope is a Southern Baptist.
Go write a book you muppet
ReplyDeleteIt was written. A law book. It will be thrown at your manslab Gregory a week from now.
Muppet? Really? Run out of unoriginal vulgarities so soon, Mezzacappa?
I like muppets.
ReplyDeleteWow! Did Trish actually write 35 comments to her own blog post?
ReplyDeleteShe really needs to get a life!
Bo, saw on the et story that jg rattled off a list of attorneys who may represent him. Care to share which attorneys may be foolish enough to represent him?
ReplyDeleteSince Gregonuts is in jail there is nobody else except Holmes who would be commenting. It's her though. Fast and furious comments with about 2 minutes between them all and all insulting Gregory's ex. Mezzacappa insanely jealous of her because Gregory is still pining away and doesn't want to give the Mezz his manslabness.
ReplyDeleteBernie,
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite Muppet clips.

Gregory is wasting County dollars with his fiasco of a defense. Stay in jail you creep and take that equestrian tramp Mezzadouchebag with you. Yes your honor, I have money to pay for an attorney because I started a bogus PAC and screwed people out of their hard earned money, illegally!! Stay in jail and I hope a Mack truck gets driven up your ass.
ReplyDeleteLove Sis & Earl
WGPA gave him the boot!
ReplyDeleteKudos to Timmer!
Fool me once.....
Messycrapper is the WORST example of subhuman excrement this side of Timbuktu! She/he has NO redeeming qualities. She has no original thoughts. Has even resorted to using Bernie's "histrionic personality" diagnosis. Just go away!! ASAP
ReplyDeleteThis is why chat rooms have monitors!
ReplyDeleteThe Mess is commenting on the E/T site. What a loon!!
ReplyDeleteClinton is a fake name, but its not Bernie.
ReplyDeleteOn a side not the Express/times again shows its ballness nature when it comes to TM. Allowing her senseless rant, but deleting other critics. No wonder the paper is dying.
Ball-less nature. sorry. The point is they are pussies.
ReplyDeleteJust deleted a number of senseless and vicious comments from Holmes and Mezzacappa. They had a bad day and are rolling around on the floor, foaming at the mouth.
ReplyDeleteIf Morganelli had any balls, he would have charged both Zito and Onembo when they took it upon themselves to order people back into the Courthouse during the bomb evacuation last summer. Gregory and Trish's antics are pale compared to the risk these two idiots caused to countless individuals so court could go on as scheduled. The actions of these two egotists violated the policy and procedure as set forth in Sheriff Miller's accredited manual that Stoffa so proudly acknowledged when he put that sticker on the vehicle for 69 news. Funny how Miller's manual contradicted the plan set forth by Emergency Management. All show, no substance - the moniker of Miller. This guy should have contacted an outside agency to report both Zito and Onembo since Morganelli refused to do anything. And lets not forget when Zito ordered deputies to allow the Wilson baby killer to use a public restroom in the old part of the Courthouse unhandcuffed and unshackled because he was too lazy to dismiss the jury so this murder could be hooked up properly. The only deputy who protested has been chastised by Miller and Zito. One of the deputies who allowed this behavior now is harassing Holmes - good luck having anything done to him Mr. Holmes since he is Ziti's right hand pisan. This is the bullshit that goes on in the County is ignored. Crimes committed and policies violated, but Miller will do nothing for fear of losing his position. He is a puppet bitch for the judges.
ReplyDeleteThe Mess continues her onslaught of you on the E/T site.
ReplyDeleteI have one question; Since you control the DA, the judiciary and the probation dept, can you fix a parking ticket i got in Glendon?
Sorry, Glendon is beyond my reach.
ReplyDeleteIsn't Holmes the guy who is proud of the IRA terrorist organization?
ReplyDeleteHe is mentally ill.
DeleteA sad aspect of this is how Gregory treats Mezzacappa. To him she is a gopher, some one to water his flowers, to run errands. He disrespects her as he ultimately does with all women in his life.He talks down to her, interrups her and she comes back for more like a stupid little puppy. How sad.
ReplyDeleteYou BO!, did Grego read from a prepared text?
ReplyDeleteThe deputy involved with Holmes once was granted FLMA to work the middle shift to care for his ill daughter. He then routinely came in to work day hours for overtime while on this FLMA approved work schedule change. The FLMA request was falsified and brought to the attention of Sheriff Miller. He did nothing as usual since this is one of his "snitches" as he brags about. Mr. Holmes should dig into this and ask why nothing was done.
ReplyDelete12:54, Sour grapes.
ReplyDelete"You BO!, did Grego read from a prepared text?"
ReplyDeleteYes, he thought about it.
We love you Jim.
ReplyDeleteFight the good fight.
Your legal team is top notch.
FLMA? Oh, I know.....that means Family Ledical Meave Act.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the reason you can't become a Caseworker again, Mr. Gregory?
People know you, Jim, for who you are. A mentally ill whack job!
I think the big question is whether or not there is a lawyer outside of the Public Defender's office who is willing to defend Gregory. No one wants a client who won't follow advice.
ReplyDeleteC.I.A.=Cash in Advance
ReplyDeleteDid you see the wackiness in Mezzacappa's comment on the Express-Times regarding Gregory's PAROLE officer? There is a big, big difference between probation and parole. Technically Gregory was on parole. He didn't even get or deserve probation. Here is the comment:
ReplyDelete"Tricia Mezzacappa
Really??? Now thats one I havent heard....gee whiz, I did not know that a PO was allowed to eavesdrop on someone's intellectual property without their knowledge, then file the contempt charges based upon his "investigation."
Does he "investigate" all of his subjects this way? I would certainly hope, Hank Hill, that this is brought to the attention of Chief Marie Bartosh.
I am assuming Kyle has much more violent, dangerous and riskier people to look after. There seems to be this one giant pill suck in the middle of all of it. Its the same dangerous violent predator that I was talking about in my above comment.
Stranger yet, he seems to run the DA, the judiciary, and now the dept of probation. I personally witnessed Gregory change his facebook settings to private, so this nightmare would not repeat itself, but it has.
This is the most ridiculous PFA I have ever heard of. Hand out PFAs to people who need protection, not revenge. The courts refused to protect me 4 times, so now my protection is an extension of my wardrobe, and the violent predator is going nutz over this."
First, Neither Mezzacappa nor Gregory has anything that can be deemed intellectual. Second, the notion that one needs permission to listen to a publicly broadcast radio show is as ridiculous and unhinged as thinking that someone needs permission to read a public blog. Third, no contact means no contact. Gregory and Mezzacappa have repeatedly thumbed their noses at the court. Fourth, after seeing the malevolent stare that Gregory was giving his ex yesterday, followed by him shaking his head, there is no wquestion in my mind that he is both a bully and dangerous. Finally, Mezzacappa has never been awarded "protection" from me bc she is a liar, and everyone sees tight through her.
ReplyDelete"Tricia Mezzacappa
ReplyDeleteReally??? Now thats one I havent heard....gee whiz, I did not know that a PO was allowed to eavesdrop on someone's intellectual property without their knowledge, then file the contempt charges based upon his "investigation." "
Jim is Property of Northampton County until his sentenced maximum. Non-compliance with a Judge's Order, is not an option.
http://youtu.be/Vyj7bVWukqM
The connection between the victim being free from abuse and Gregory's right to continue to abuse, doesn't seem to make sense to the mensa.
ReplyDeleteYou no talk to her, you no talk about her, you no get convicts to write her.
And so on.
Please a pay attention.
Just read the Mezzacappa post about the Gregory ex-girlfriend. Isn't that about as close to defamation of character as you can get? She has freedom of speech but somehow I think she may have opened herself up to civil if not criminal prosecution.
ReplyDeleteMezzacappa should face criminal harassment charges. She has written more than enough about a woman she has no direct knowledge about. "Jim told me" is not a defense.
ReplyDeleteSurely I cannot be the only one who thinks Tricia is a 40 something stunner, have any of you haters ever seen her in the flesh? She's a natural beauty and has the brains to match.
ReplyDeleteMr. Holmes, she is no natural beauty. She bleaches her hair and has had a nose job. She wears inch upon inch of makeup to hide what really is a worn and used up face, the kind with lots of miles. I will agree that she probably is more intelligent than you, but that's not saying much. You can't put two sentences together without a grammatical or spelling error. She can't put together three. She probably would look a little better in a muscle shirt than you. Do me a favor. Stop sending me threatening emails under made up names like "Derek Murphy". Mmkay??
