I’m saying that he had to know there was the potential for a conflict of interest. The whole thing about donations to campaigns for judges is a bad idea.
How far do you go in claiming that free speech is a "bad idea"?
I would have thought so, but according to Judge Alex (who I believe is a real straight-shooter), this is common practice. Maybe it shouldn’t be, but his comment was also that nobody else but lawyers would donate to lawyers.
I can see that point .. because lawyers don’t always have a good reputation, unless they work as a prosecutor and have a good conviction record.
But .. the lawyers can donate to prosecutors .. and you’re okay with that .. the current prosecutor is not a JUDGE ..!!! If she is, then I’ve read the whole donation thing wrong.
