This comment doesn't belong on this thread, just wanted you to see this. Fannie, Freddie worker bonuses total $210M. Its an AP story out today.

Kingfish, could you elaborate on the Kuns/Diaz story? I am admittedly living under a rock these days and not reading the paper like I should. I have met her a couples of times a long time ago. Just curious about when this happened and what paper it was in.

was on the stand during Diaz's trial and admitted to having an affair with him. Made front page of CL.

Thanks for the info. I obviously did not follow that as closely as I should have, LOL.

So what is so terribly wrong with Laura Kuns' affair with Diaz? Were either of them married at the time?

Laura Kuns is also in contempt of court (last I saw) and couldn't practice law until she paid legal fees to Watkins, Ludlam,etc......

disbarred? I know she has a special needs child and medical bills have probably eaten them alive.

Dumbass, by definition an affair means one of them were married.

Dictionary says "affair: an intense amorous relationship, usually of short duration"

Affair does not imply one party is married - DUMBASS back at ya

in the common vernacular it means one of the parties is married.

@1011. Should we include just one defintion or all of them?

Obviously I was bored while performing this exercise.

You forgot Stephen Parkes-armed robbery. What WAS it about that school!

Update - The charges were dismissed against George Mccranie. I'm sure this has been a very trying time for him and his family.

Additional info on Mccranie. There were 3 other people charged at the same time as McCranie, 1 was found not guilty after a bench trial, 1 had his case dismissed by the Fed Judge when the Gov refused to go forward at the jury trial and the last 2, including Mccranie had the charges against them DISMISSED by the Feds! Sounds like a witch hunt and a huge waist of our tax money!

Hey Kingfish,

Why not correct your original story to reflect the DISMISSAL against Mccranie? The Feds case fell apart months ago and all of the people indicted by the Gov were either found NOT GUILTY or had the charges DISMISSED! A conviction rate of 0%!!

We are all waiting for your response,

Fair and Balanced

send me a link or a news story and I will. I looked online and didn't see it. Will be more than happy to as I'm not trying to smear the guy.

Now as for his video tape collection. ugh.

You know the press doesn't report when the Feds dismiss. Only if you are a Senator!! The dismissal should be available online with the Fed Court system. I don't believe the local television stations carried the news of the 4 losses for the Feds!!! They only want to smear and not clear people!!

somebody go into Pacer and send it to me, I'll post and update. Thanks.

I just checked into this topic. Apparently, the Feds dismissed the indictment against Mccranie!! Whoa!! Imagine that, the Feds made a mistake!!!

I hope he and his family can put this ugly and politically motivated(?) fiasco behind them.

Like the song says the devil went down to Georgia because he was looking for some dumbass attorneys, law enforcement and so on. This was not a witch hunt nor a waist of tax payer dollars. Read McCranie's own statement. That slime ball was able cry wolf because while he was running off at the mouth he cried he couldn't be held accountable because he didn't know he was being recorded. Every one of his cases will be pulled in for review.

Cry Wolf? Since when do the FEDS dismiss charges against people because they "Cry Wolf"? What statement are you referring to? I've followed the cases and Mccranie doesn't seem to have made any statements to anyone about the charges or the DISMISSAL! It makes sense that the Feds looked into any suspicious cases before they DISMISSED the charges against him!!

Looks like another attempt by the Gov to go after someone half-cocked. How many times does the Gov charge someone and just back off? They must have known they had a weak case to before they charged him and the other attorney. 2 dismissals in a Gov case? Is that e a record?

On the Mccranie case. The Judge the FEDS went after for 4 years entered a plea of guilty to only 1 count and will receive a sentence of 6 MONTHS probation!!! The Federal Judge crawled all over the US Attorney about the plea! The US Attorney admitted the 4 year long investigation and case was "not the governments finest hour". Millions of taxpayers dollars spent, innocent peoples reputations and lives destroyed in order to force a judge from office! Shame on the FEDS for this. Credibility will now be an issue for the US Gov. when they take a case to trial in South Georgia!
