Washington Times - Guerra

Reached by phone late Wednesday, Mr. Guerra said he had a prior obligation to speak at Nuevo Leon University law school in Mexico and did not know about Wednesday's hearing. He suggested the court's holding it so quickly indicated that the defendants are receiving special consideration. Some already dismissed the case as hopelessly political, the latest in tit-for-tat between Mr. Guerra and his rivals. Willacy County Sheriff Larry Spence told The Washington Times that Mr. Guerra, who lost the Democratic primary in March and will leave office after three terms in January, frequently threatened rivals with prosecution. Sheriff Spence counts himself among those who have been threatened. "Usually, it's just people that disagree with the way he's done things, and then you've moved to the top of his hit list," Sheriff Spence said. "I'm in my 25th year as sheriff, and I haven't seen anything like this." He said Mr. Guerra likes drawing attention to himself and is a polarizing figure in Willacy County. Last year, Mr. Guerra was indicted on corruption charges, which he blasted as politically motivated, pointing out the special prosecutor was a political rival who had run against him for district attorney.


looks like a "stunt". really as much as many agree that many politicians should be held accountable for their actions while in office, it would seem rather futile.

They will either get pardons or the legal proceedings will become "corrupted". Or both.

Most of these politicians are coated with Teflon and getting anything to stick would be amazing.

Actually, that rather sounds like a conspiracy in and of itself.

Not a one liner, because "they" are watching

That is actually precisely what I was getting at.

I had mentioned in the earlier thread about the indictment, that although this one DA's charges wouldn't really hold much water by itself, perhaps it would serve as a stepping-stone for other prosecutors, and perhaps the new Attorney General himself, to see that this won't be met with "boo's", so to speak.

However, if he is killed, this could send a message to the contrary.

To stay the hell away.

The threat won't hold after Obama takes office. If he keeps his promises, that is...

I wouldn't want that job, particularly having children to worry about.

Wondering if a space based Laser target on a person in his yard would leave any evidence?






Brave? More like a Partisan and Vindictive fool. He has no legitimate basis for even commencing forth with these charges, and there should have never been an indictment to begin with. He obviously did a great job in selecting an equally Partisan Grand Jury. This case is more or less a Kangaroo Court procession.

The Charges are so far fetched, both in their subjective and connective aspects, that one must seriously begin to ponder who on Earth would take them seriously in a Court of Law?

I am not cutting on you in particular, as it is this Prosecutor who remains idiotic in his actions, but look at the case with some Bi-Partisan based Logic.

The Presiding Judge is the VERY same individual who dismissed Felony Indictments against the Prosecutor himself. In other words, they have quite the relationship. Also, half of the Co-Defendants named in the same case against Cheney/Gonzalez, are local officials who lead the investigation against and brought forth the Indictment against this very same Prosecutor last year.



Look at how whacked out this Prosecutor is:

After Guerra's office was raided as part of the investigation early last year, he camped outside the courthouse in a borrowed camper with a horse, three goats and a rooster. He threatened to dismiss hundreds of cases because he believed local law enforcement had aided the investigation against him.




Check out another recollection of Prosecutor Guerra:


Willacy County Sheriff Larry Spence told The Washington Times that Mr. Guerra, who lost the Democratic primary in March and will leave office after three terms in January, frequently threatened rivals with prosecution. Sheriff Spence counts himself among those who have been threatened.

"Usually, it's just people that disagree with the way he's done things, and then you've moved to the top of his hit list," Sheriff Spence said. "I'm in my 25th year as sheriff, and I haven't seen anything like this."

He said Mr. Guerra likes drawing attention to himself and is a polarizing figure in Willacy County. Last year, Mr. Guerra was indicted on corruption charges, which he blasted as politically motivated, pointing out the special prosecutor was a political rival who had run against him for district attorney.

Before he was indicted, Mr. Guerra was charged with interfering with a police search of his office. He spent a night in jail, but didn't go far after his release. As a protest, Mr. Guerra moved into a camper across the street from the county jail and brought along goats, a rooster and a horse. Ultimately, all charges were dropped.




You might also ask yourself: Where was Guerra when he missed his own Court Date for the Cheney/Gonzalez case?


Read this to find out:


In another bizarre twist, Willacy County District Attorney Juan Angel Guerra was a no-show in court Wednesday, prompting Judge Banales to order the Texas Rangers to go find him.

Reached by phone late Wednesday, Mr. Guerra said he had a prior obligation to speak at Nuevo Leon University law school in Mexico and did not know about Wednesday's hearing. He suggested the court's holding it so quickly indicated that the defendants are receiving special consideration.




Bottom line, this guy is on a vegeance seeking mission, and nothing else. This is NOT about Justice, it IS about Revenge. These are very scary motives indeed for a Presiding Court Official.

My mind flashes to scenes from Godfather II - The Senator *waking up* in bed with the murdered prostitute - in a motel that just happens to be owned by the *Family*...
Tom, (the Family lawyer) reassures the Senator with a line something like “Don’t worry Senator, it will be like this never happened”...

Makes me wonder what they *got* on he DA...
