-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COLONIE - The assistant district attorney who handled a 2001 misdemeanor charge against former U.N. weapons inspector Scott Ritter has been fired for failing to tell her boss the case ever even existed. "I was shocked and angered to learn that the case had been disposed of by one of my assistant district attorneys without consulting me," said Albany County District Attorney Paul Clyne. "Any arguably sensitive case should be brought to my attention."
Details of the specific charge against Ritter, who sources said was arrested by Colonie police and charged with a class B misdemeanor on June 15, 2001, were sealed.
On Friday, Clyne fired Assistant District Attorney Cynthia Preiser, who had worked in the DA's office for 15 years. She did not return calls for comment.

Thanks for the post!
So was this DA babette on the take from Uncle Soddomite too, or did Ritter bribe her from the vast amounts of blood money he has gotten from Uncle Soddomite the past years.
Or was this just an anti America/American act by a left winger for the traitor Ritter?

Ritter apparently really flunked/bombed out on the lie detector test that the CIA gave him when Ritter wanted to join the CIA.
Of course this little story gets zero coverage from ABCNNBCNN and the NY Slimes. I found out about when Fox News, military advisor, the bald headed gentlemen was ripping into Ritter's very shaky background. He brought up about Ritter's failing of the CIA lie detector test. He said that Ritter really went off the edge when the CIA said no thank you.

This a great cartoon of the traitor/Judas Ritter who has received blood money from Uncle Soddomite.

Interesting read that link in your post #15.
Amazing that this scum is walking freely among us. Although, he reportedly has complained about being tailed by the FBI so maybe homeland security is working...

Yeah, when he gets fired by Fox and uncle Soddomite, he will be able speak at every left wing university in the country for decades.
He will get paid about $25,000 in our tax $'s to smear the US and endear himself to his fellow traitors at these universities.
Watch for him to set up his own phoney non profit or join up with Ramsey Clark to gather the 40 pieces of silver from those who hate America, here and abroad.

Reportedly, around $400,000. There were details around here last year...he did a tv program or something for the Iraqis, and basically stated they were innocent of WMD...if I remember correctly.

Perhaps something to do with a public men's restroom?

"That's interesting. If you read the whole article, Scott seems to think it's a case of mistaken identity."Scott seemed to think Saddam did and then did not possess chemical weapons or the means to deliver them either. His memory, combined with the firing of the assistant DA makes me wonder if Scotty's telling the truth. Maybe he was too drunk to recall...or somebody recieved some pocket lubrication?

"Is being a jerk a misdemeanor?"...Then everyone at today's anti-America rally would have been arrested.

"In all fairness, however, the article indicates that he was charged, not convicted."Maybe A.A.R.D. in which a misdemeaner wouldn't go on the person's record if they don't have a prior...goes for DWI's too. I don't if NY has that program though.

Hey, who knows what the 2001 misdemeanor was. Ritter is quoted as saying there are several FBI investigations opened on him.
He's a loose cannon and a useful tool for all the left-wing media.
Wonder what promped this reporter's interest in the case. Hope we find out more soon.
