How could they not appeal around the state AG to a district court or something- since it's the daughter of the guy who has committed 2600+ felonies????

WOW! That isn't under the table behind the doors corruption, that is in the middle of town square in your face corruption!
Where are the FEDS?

[GeekwithaGun]

Wow - Just WOW!
