Whether the woman partially visible behind Patterson is wife Deb or defense attorney Christi McCoy is impossible to tell. But lookit that ‘tude on the guy.

    All it needs is lipstick.

  2. ThirdSouth says:

    And a pulpit.

  3. lotus says:

    He and Bill Richardson must have the same tailor.

  4. DeltaLawMama says:

    That is not Christi McCoy’s hand bag.

  5. lotus says:

    Doggone, Deb didn’t make the scene?

  6. lotus says:

    Oh, DLM, you said “NOT” CMcC’s? I misread.

  7. DeltaLawMama says:

    Don’t know what Deb looks like. (I was typing to fast @4 and left the “not” out.)

  8. Lolly says:

    Are those “dress” cowboy boots?

  9. Phantom says:

    I’d say it’s McCoy…I’d also say that’s a yellow tie!

  10. Phantom says:

    He looks like a blackjack dealer when his shift is up–showing the eye in the sky his hands are clean of chips.

  11. lotus says:

    The bag looks more like a briefcase than a handbag (I hope).

  12. Only When I Laugh says:

    God, that’s a good one @ 10, Phantom.

  13. MSPolitical says:

    He stiffed me for an ad in a pub I was doing many, many years back. I say it’s a yeller tie. I take names and I hold grudges. ;-)

    They say a photo is worth 1000 words-his is worth one, to wit: SLUG

  15. lotus says:

    From the DJournal‘s updated story, a passage that pins this moke, wriggling, to the wall:

    It was revealed in court that Patterson had been receiving $80,000 a month in payments from the tobacco litigation. … It’s not clear what Patterson did to earn the money.

    Patterson, who is not an attorney, resigned as auditor in 1996 after lying on state documents to avoid paying taxes on a car tag.

  16. Federati says:

    I heard he’s been selected to play the “penguin” in the next Batman flick.

  17. YourLiesHaveLies says:

    I think he is palming something in that right hand. He could do the peace signs and say “I am just a minor crook”.

  18. lotus says:

    Well, I say GoogleNews ain’t worth a hoot. All these hours later, no word of these sentencings on there? Phooey.

  19. lotus says:

    Check the post again, y’all. The C-L just put a larger size of this pic on the homepage — now you can see part of the woman’s face clearly enough to ID her, I bet. (And yeah, that’s a frackin’ yellow tie.)

  20. BoynamedSioux says:

    what a disgusting excuse for a human. some poisonous snake could be breathing the oxygen wasted when he draws a breath. at least snakes kill rats and other vermin.

  21. sailor says:

    Patterson needs to go on the Delaughter Diet.

  22. magnolia says:

    Rats and missing links.

  23. lotus says:

    He’ll slim down after March 25, betcha.

  24. Pattymelt says:

    I bet Patterson is palming the receipt for the suit he “didn’t wear”

  25. Ben Cole says:

    So … do the $20,000 monthly walking-around checks still keep coming?

  26. ThirdSouth says:

    I don’t think he has to forfeit his passive income, Ben. What a contrast between this blowhard and Balducci, who is the first one I’ve seen handle himself in this miserable situation with something approaching grace.

  27. Jax-Relief says:

    new journalistic low for sid salter commenting on his CL blog about Patterson: http://preview.tinyurl.com/bpvhqu

  28. NMC says:

    I don’t think that so low, Jax. We’ve had more barbed barbs hereabouts regularly.

  29. Jax-Relief says:

    you don’t think it’s kind of a cheap and shallow comment coming from someone who claims to be a journalist?

  30. ThirdSouth says:

    Please give me some background on Mrs. Patterson. Is she a quiet, uninformed housewife who had nothing to do with her husband’s enterprises, or was she up to her elbows in his horseshit. It makes a difference to me.

  31. a friend of the law says:

    Patterson —a cowardly dipshit from the outset all the way to the end. A “minor player” in the conspiracy my ass. From the tapes, it sounded to me like he and his loudmouth wife were the primary connections to the bagman, PL Blake. The ONLY way some dipshit like Patterson could be getting $80,000 per month would be doing something illegal. Drug dealers have more honor than this asshole.

    3dSo @ 30, Dem elbows is familiar with the barn and is sho nice ‘n brown.
