Comments on: Balducci-Patterson’s $500K to sway Hood makes the papers http://www.folo.us/2008/02/27/balducci-pattersons-500k-to-sway-hood-makes-the-papers/ Sat, 21 Mar 2009 17:40:41 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: injustice4all http://www.folo.us/2008/02/27/balducci-pattersons-500k-to-sway-hood-makes-the-papers/#comment-9460 injustice4all Thu, 28 Feb 2008 03:05:50 +0000 http://www.folo.us/2008/02/27/balducci-pattersons-500k-to-sway-hood-makes-the-papers/#comment-9460 You guys are missing it here. Snake Farm made the dismissal of the criminal indictment aka charges part of the deal, not Scruggs. They were already indicted in Jackson County all they had to do ask the Grand jury. (Its a small county.) Scruggs did not speak for most Katrina attorneys or even represent a majority of the claims dollar wise. Hood made a deal with the devil, (Devils) and now he has to live with it. We all do. You guys are missing it here.

And I spoke too soon this morning as to Sid Salter's blog. She was laying into him this afternoon with the utmost vigor.

So the DAGA funded about half of that. And he claims he didn't know where the money came from. I bet Patterson and Balducci reminded him pretty clearly at dinner that night.

I mean their professional lives are at a standstill, outside plotting their defense, but how many hours of the day can you engage in that without losing your mind? And the newspapers must make dreary reading. It would seem to me next to impossible to retain any sense of normalcy. I mean, how do you read a book, enjoy a nice meal, make love to your wife under such soul-grinding pressure? I also wonder what kind of local profile they are keeping. I have a niece at Ole Miss, and she told me right after the indictments, Dickie and Diane were making the rounds on the Square and pretty much acting as if the whole thing was just a big misunderstanding. But that was before Joey rolled over and the whole thing became a runaway train.
