California Rep. Lois Capps is being sued by the family of a young woman who was killed in a drunk-driving accident by one of her staffers, amid allegations her office initially tried to help the aide -- before abruptly cutting him off when the victim was taken off life support.
Raymond Victor Morua III, an Iraq war veteran, was employed as a district representative for the Democratic congresswoman when he struck 27-year-old Mallory Rae Dies in a crosswalk on Dec. 6. Morua pleaded guilty on April 15 to hitting Dies with his Dodge Caliber and fleeing the scene after attending a holiday party put on by local newspaper the Santa Barbara Independent.

Staffer convicted of embezzlement and hit-and-run previously as well as had two DUI’s. He did not have a driver’s license...
FoxNews.com's Stephanie McNeal and The Associated Press contributed to this report.
So this is an AP article with Stephanie McNeal as a reporter on it...
Duh?
Couldn’t happen to a more despicable Liberal Democrat than Lois Capps, who rode her dead husband’s name onto the Congressional Gravy Train in ‘98. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lois_Capps
Duh?
Well, we know that DemoRats are never criminals, always truthful and always objectively investigated by the Socialist left MSM.
So many drivers flee accidents in this county that the Police now are surprised if the driver of an accident is found at the scene.
Possibly a big contributor’s kid?
Maybe they did a background check to make sure he was not a convicted child molester or a tea party member, but they don’t care if he is a drunk, an addict, or a dead beat. I know somebody who works in payroll at a gumint funded non-profit. They are always getting garnishment orders for the managers.
If Capps was a Republican, you know it.
But given the realities of the situation, no.
“Staffer convicted of embezzlement and hit-and-run previously as well as had two DUI’s. He did not have a driver’s license”....
Definitely an up and coming demodummie political wannabe, he has already got some of the qualifications.
Supermajority, going, going...
Thanks topher.

(by “Independent”, they mean “Partisan Democrat”)
The California liberals, as well as most others are HELLBENT on helping out their LAWYER FRIENDS by making it as easy as possible to sue.
...maybe a bit too easy for Ms. Capps - LOL!!!
