And in other news, “Elick” admitted in his confessional in federal Court that Lafitte and Fleming were coconspirators.
Looks like finally Russell Lafitte will begin serving his prison term. It’s about time. His high price attorneys have run out of appeals to keep him out of jail.
Had he had not be able to afford those attorneys and had to use a public defender, you can bet he would have been jailed months ago. It boils down to the haves and have nots. His family, owning a bank, certainly put him in the haves category and enabled him to continue to avoid beginning his prison sentence. Hats off to Judge Gergel for putting him where he belongs. Now if Judge Newman gets him in his courtroom for the state financial charges against him, maybe he will get a few more years to add to his federal sentence.
“So ordered.” But NOT ENOUGH! A handshake sentence that does not meet justice.
