More evidence that the Arizona shooter that killed a Federal judge and a 9 year old girl is a left wing loon: Loughner is scheduled to make an initial appearance before a federal magistrate in Phoenix on Monday, prosecutors said. A federal public defender known for handling high-profile cases, Judy Clarke, has been appointed to represent him, a federal judicial source told CNN.
Clarke previously defended the "Unabomber," Ted Kaczynski, and assisted in the case of confessed al Qaeda operative Zacarias Moussaoui.

If the shooter was a right wing nut, I don't think they would have assigned an uber liberal attorney.

In Milwaukee, Tim Russell, who is quite conservative and a close friend of Scott Walker who worked on Walker's campaign during county time and with county equipment, is under a John Doe investigation. He has retained the legal services of Michael Mastelman, best known for working for Jim Doyle and Tom Barrett and myself.
ReplyDeleteLawyers work for whoever will pay them. Your argument holds no water.
Nice try, Dan, but Judy Clarke also represented Eric Rudolph, whose politics are definitely right-wing.
ReplyDeleteJill,
ReplyDeleteRudolph was more of an anarchist than anything. Yes, he hated abortions and gays, but he professed to be a reader of Nietschze instead of the Bible. He also had a hatred for corporations and capitalism. He is probably comparable to the BNP of the UK, racialist and far left on economics.
