Just when you thought the Zimmerman case couldn’t get any crazier, here we go.
An amicus curiae brief has been filed in support of a motion to re-try George Zimmerman for second-degree murder...........
Not only that, the brief argues that the prosecuting team should be found guilty of professional misconduct (no argument there), that they should therefore be disqualified from re-trying the case, and that a new prosecution team should be selected for this re-trial.
And by whom should this new team of prosecutors be chosen? Why, by Martin family lawyer Benjamin Crump and cohorts. Naturally.
[Chris Hansen To The White Courtesy Phone, Please]
Before we get to the merits (ha-ha) of this brief, it might be worth taking a look at who authored this legal filing. Certainly not Angela Corey’s team who are called out as incompetent in the document.
Was it Governor Scott, finally recognizing the enormous blunder that was the assignment of Corey to this case? No.
Was it perhaps the Federal Department of Justice, seeking to relieve Sharpton’s racist tumescence by any means necessary? No, after some early jawing the DOJ has pretty much disappeared from this matter, as anticipated.
Was it perhaps even Benjamin Crump himself? No again.
The filing was made by someone identifying themselves as Cleve L. Molette, residing at 4552 Old Dixie Hwy #272, Forest Park, GA 30297. Curiously, there was no bar association number, which lawyer’s routinely include on their filings, suggesting that Mr. Molette is not himself an attorney. Laughably, Mr. Molette includes as his email address “imtreyy@yahoo.com”. (Get it? “I am Trayvon.”).
So, who is this Cleve L. Molette? Naturally, I turned to Google. Seconds later I had a screen full of results, including one from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI). They, too, had a record of a Cleve L. Molette residing at 4552 Old Dixie Highway, #272, Forest Park, GA 30297. I’m guessing it’s the same guy.
Why, one might wonder, would the Georgia Bureau of Investigation have such a record of Mr. Molette? Because on July 23, 2010, at the age of ~47 years, Cleve L. Molette was convicted of sexual battery against a child under 16 years of age. As a result, he was required by the state to register as a sex offender, a registration maintained as a publicly accessible record by the GBI.

Mr. Molette also appears to be something of a recreational jailhouse lawyer, having filed a variety of amicus curiae briefs in other cases. He also represented himself on Federal appeal of dismissal of a suit he filed against Georgia officials over an incident in which he was arrested for loitering and had a handgun he was carrying seized. (He lost that appeal: Molette v. Georgia, US 11th Cir., 2012.)...........
[It] is nevertheless striking that his legal reasoning and politically motivated twisting of the law is really no more deficient than that exhibited by Angela Corey, Bernie de la Rionda, John Guy, and Rich Mantei.
Who knows, perhaps they’ll soon have another peer with whom they can maliciously wield the power of the State to destroy the lives of other innocent Floridians.
Hey, maybe Angela Corey will Appoint Cleve Molette Assistant State Prosecutor (just a joke)
If you have trouble finding Mr. Molette, Angela, just call the Georgia Bureau of Investigation -- they’ll know where he is.
I am assuming that it is just the image, and Cleve Molette
does not have an actual cone shaped pointy head.
One can only HOPE that there is no DNA floating around that would cause such a misshappen cranium...
If Obama had a son he’d look like this guy.
Corey went for second degree murder because even in Florida she could not charge Zimmerman with first degree murder without getting a grand jury to agree.
I didnt read the perps record...but theres a possibity that if obama had a son he might swing like this guy
Looks like Molette the Molester has just bought himself trouble.
If Obama had a son he’d look like this guy.
If this clown had bigger ears and hair it could be Obama.
Now that is racist!
You post that constitutional prohibition against “double jeopardy” as if it matters. The constitution has been
null and void in America for decades. If we wish to return to a form of government that pays heed to and obeys that
old piece of parchment we are going to have to exterminate
several million politicians and bureaucrats at all levels of
government. Until then those who have seized power can and will do as they wish, when they wish to whom they wish.
If Crump selected the prosecution team, and they actually agreed to prosecute the case, they’d have to be the dumbest lawyers in Florida.
When I saw this yesterday I was thinking it smelled like Crump.
