The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Another Reason to Elect Judges


For John, BLUFMaybe George will comment on this situation.  Nothing to see here; just move along.



Tape reveals judge quick with low bail


Reporter Brian Dowling and The Boston Herald, yesterday, 28 April 2017.

Here is the lede plus one:

A state judge freed a previously deported Uber driver accused of rape on light bail even after a prosecutor insisted that federal immigration agents were drafting a detainer and asked for high bond to hold him, according to a court recording obtained by the Herald.

The stunning tape of Tuesday’s hearing reveals Newton District Court Judge Mary Beth Heffernan cutting the arguments short before a defense attorney could even counter the prosecution’s $100,000 bail and GPS-monitoring demand, interjecting, “Twenty-five hundred dollars cash.”

Cast of Characters:
  • Luis Baez — Previously Deported illegal immigrant, using a false name, accused of raping an inebriated Boston College student.
  • Raquel Frisardi — The Middlesex Assistant District Attorney, who requested a $100,000 bail and GPS Monitoring.
  • Mary Beth Heffernan — The impatient Judge of the Newton District Court, who gave the now missing Mr Baez a $2500 bail.
  • John Benzan — The Defense Attorney, who didn't even get a chance to complete his counter to the Prosecutor's requests.
  • The General Court — Who will do nothing.
  • The Governor's Council — Who will learn nothing.
  • Unnamed BC Student — Who will not see here complaint tried in court.
