Once again, the great Harvey Silverglate lays out the case in simple but eloquent prose, noting that the U.S. Supreme Court once again has ensured that prosecutors that flaunt the law, suborn perjury, hide evidence, and lie are protected by the pernicious doctrine of "absolute immunity."
This is an article worth reading.

The Misogynist Plays the Racist Card
Leave it to Len "The Man, The Misogynist" Gregor, as when the man is putting on a show, he goes whole hog. He was not satisfied with trying to find out the kind of underwear Tonya Craft wears, nor was The Man Who Is Defined By His Own Narcissism satisfied with telling the world he hates women.
No, Gregor must have been reading the website I posted on the Scottsboro Boys Trials, as not only has he tried to denigrate expert witnesses like Dr. Nancy Aldridge and Dr. Ann Hazzard because they (horrors) are from Atlanta (and not from within the boundaries of the LMJD), but he then played the racist card.
During his rambling and truly evil inquisition of Ms. Craft, he made the ultimate accusation that one supposedly can make to a southern-state jury: TONYA CRAFT SLEPT WITH A BLACK MAN.
Yes, Ms. Craft admitted that she met her private investigator, Eric Echols and spoke to him in a hotel room. Aha! The LMJD's own Inspector Clouseau deduced that THEY HAVE BEDS IN HOTEL ROOMS! And they go to law school to learn that!
Now, The Racist-Misogynist Gregor did not tell the jury that after Mr. Echols served a subpoena on Sandra Lamb at her residence, she threw the legal document into her yard, and started hitting Mr. Echols, allegedly calling him a "N*gg*r." When Mr. Echols did his duty and took out a warrant against the woman, he was arrested on a felony charge of "influencing a witness."
Now, this was not because he actually was "influencing a witness," but rather because Mr. Echols had a recording of Jerry McDonald (the same Jerry McDonald who tearfully told the jury that Tonya Craft molested his daughter) saying that he believed that "nothing happened." It seemed that Mr. Echols was doing his job -- and doing it well -- which angered the Dishonest Duo of Gregor and Chris Arnt no end. However, it was not enough for Len "The Man, The Racist-Misogynist" Gregor to arrest a black man.
No, he had to claim -- without one shred of evidence -- that Tonya Craft had sex with this man in his hotel room. It was the ultimate race card, and Gregor played it. That Brian "House of Horrors" would approve this line of questioning in what is supposed to be a courtroom further disgraces the proceedings.
So far, Gregor has not given the famous line uttered by Alabama prosecutor Wade Wright in one of the Scottsboro Boys in his closing arguments: "Now the question in this case is this: "Is justice going to be bought and sold in Alabama with Jew money from New York?" However, given time, I am sure that Gregor is up to it. Maybe he will reveal an anti-Semitic side in his closing arguments.
After all, he has demonstrated beyond a doubt that he is a racist and a misogynist. Hey, Len, why not go all the way and go after Jews, too?!?
