twoapennythingIf Judge Manzanares gets probation for stealing a crappy laptop from Judicial, not a single officer in our department is going to want to touch his supervision with a ten-thousand foot pole. Nothing would suck worse than supervising a judge who you used to serve. Link here:

As I sit here typing on my state-issued, Gateway M280 laptop, I can't even begin to imagine what possessed His Honor to dowload 17,000 pornographic images onto a Judicial computer. I mean, sure, I surf from this laptop, but there's a huge difference between perusing Livejournal and CNN[dot]com than ::hemhem:: other kinds of sites . . .
He deserves to be charged, though, in my opinion. Saying "I bought it from a guy in a parking lot" is like saying "the dog ate my homework" and I feel that a District Court judge who has sat on the criminal bench *boggles* should know better than anyone else in the world that 1) no-one is going to believe him and 2) people who sell shit in parking lots are typically peddling stolen goods.

Of course I've seen a guy look at porn on a computer next to me at the public library. Classy, that.

Date: 2007-06-14 07:57 am (UTC)He must know that 1) a Judicial computer may have a tracking device, and 2) the last thing he should say is "I bought it from a guy in a parking lot". That is such an obvious lie!
