Why...Schriebman is now showing his true character. Why didn't he make accusations against Bradley Jr a month ago when it was suggested that he (himself) struck a deal with Sennett. <BR/><BR/>The numbers simply don't add up. There were two quality candidates but virtually 100% of Schriebman's delegates voted for Sennett. If you can believe each delegate reached that decision without help, then there's a bridge in lower Manhattan I'd like to sell you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23643028.post-59725043108454326412007-06-28T14:50:00.000-04:002007-06-28T14:50:00.000-04:00Great cases go to trial and weak ones go as well. ...Great cases go to trial and weak ones go as well. I for one do not want any DA pleading out a case only because the they think the evidence is weak. You do the trial. Punishment has to fit the crime, not how strong or weak your evidence is or how much trial will cost. If they don't think they can win the trial they shouldn't be bringing the case in the first place. Also, are the criminals in Ulster so much different than the Bronx or Manhattan. I fail to see the significance of that. At the end of the day, Julian has apparently been very unsuccessful since he has been in the DA's Office. funny that his motto is "results" because his have bordered on incompetent. That will eventually surface...it is being talked about a great deal now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23643028.post-40126831925172203082007-06-25T22:45:00.000-04:002007-06-25T22:45:00.000-04:00It is so nice that Julian's mother wrote in to def...It is so nice that Julian's mother wrote in to defend her son's trial history. The same rationale can be used in baseball. The games are tough and the teams with the best record make it to the pennant. You bring a case to trial fully confident that you can prove the case and convince a jury...otherwise you lose. The other option is to plea bargin based on the best interests of justice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23643028.post-66770891594798179502007-06-25T19:55:00.000-04:002007-06-25T19:55:00.000-04:00Actually, you're not giving Julian enough credit. ...Actually, you're not giving Julian enough credit. At least he's actually prosecuted criminals in Ulster County, unlike the other two. And, as any lawyer will tell you, a trial is a crapshoot and that only the hardest cases go to trial; otherwise, you would be wasting the taxpayers’ money. Meanwhile, without any political connections, Julian did amazingly well at the convention.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23643028.post-80984067147589683632007-06-24T16:36:00.000-04:002007-06-24T16:36:00.000-04:00You are giving Julian far too much credit.

Let's not forget a previous gang assault trial that was thrown out by a judge due to a lack of evidence. Let him practice on his own dime not ours.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
