Voted ‘not sure’ but it definitely doesn’t look good for DeSantis. A deep dive investigation is needed to confirm the extent of corruption. Casey DeSantis has always given me a bad feeling.

CA, specifically PG&E has had unrestricted rate hikes every time requested and the public always pays for their projects through BS surcharges. They have no “cost of doing business “. We finance their entire existence. I didn’t vote because I am uncertain of any axes being ground. I truly find it hard to believe that any state pays more for energy, electricity, gas, etc than CA.

Can't blame general counsel. Lawyers are only allowed to advise, and having a lawyer is a right only if charged with a crime. Otherwise, it is a choice, but the person or people making the decision bear full responsibility for any actions, to include under a doctrine of respondeat superior.

Got another scandal from an April 7, 2010 online article by PA reporter:

"...West Whiteland Police Department and the Chester County [Pennsylvania] Detectives explained how they had been able to determine who had been regularly going into Kelley’s e-mail, reading her messages, and changing her password, studying the contents of her computer’s hard drive."

1. Can't read a computer's hard drive by accessing email accounts!!

2. Chester County Judge Thomas Gavin, DAs Carroll and Krilivsky, Public Defenders Schenker and Bey, West Whiteland Township Patrolman Meshurle, and the commission all thought this was true.

3. So did the PA appellate court judges, to include the PA Supreme Court Justice Castille.

4. Then the federal court judge for the eastern district of PA--Judge Curtis Joyner--also thought this was true and denied the man's petitions under the 14th Amendment.

5. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals judges believed a computer's hard drive could be accessed by reading an email account and affirmed Judge Joyner's ruling.

6. SCOTUS twice denied petitions for certiorari, degrading the petitioner as frivolous and his arguments as based on meritless legal theory. SCOTUS per curiam banned the petitioner from communicating with the US Supreme Court, denying his right to seek relief and to peaceably redress grievances against the government.

Several years later, Microsoft Corp v US (2016) asserted emails are stored on a server at the provider's locations, not on personal computers.

SCOTUS justices Roberts, Alito, Breyer, Thomas and Sotomayor have never apologized to the man, nor admitted to their mistake, because they want to be seen as infallible. The other 4 justices involved have been replaced because of death or retirement.

As an aside, the ruling Van Buren v US (2021) was also taken from this man's appeals, almost verbatim, that "unlawful access" of an email account is not a valid charge on an indictment or warrant, it must be "exceeding authorization" or "unauthorized access." Why did Professor Claudine Gay have to resign for plagiarizing when SCOTUS justices didn't?

The man had been assigned to the National Security Agency during the time the internet was formed, and had taken a class from Jim Flyzik in the early '90s, shortly after Flyzik was named the head of computer and internet security for the US Treasury Department.

His innocence was never disputed. Chester County DAs, Public Defenders and Judge Thomas Gavin prevented the man from proving his innocence because they wanted him to hire an attorney by borrowing money from relatives. The man petitioned the Disciplinary Council about the DAs and Public Defenders, and the Judicial Conduct Board about Judge Thomas Gavin attempting to extort money for private counsel, but both petitions were dismissed as frivolous.

It is fair to mention that this is the same Judicial Conduct Board that allowed "kids for cash" despite thousands of complaints against the two judges that were criminals, and one of these judges was pardoned by Joe Biden, even though one of the kids committed suicide from the PTSD.
