“Numerous other members of the York County legislative delegation are upset that Inzerillo, a career public defender who is not expected to rule with a conservative judicial temperament, is the only candidate the JMSC advanced for this seat.”
In other words, the York County legislative delegation is looking for a “hang ’em, darn it” type of a judge, instead of one who is more inclined to give a person (who is presumed innocent until proven guilty) a fair shake.
South Carolina has its fill of judges who rule with a jaundiced eye toward any person accused of a crime.
How is Inzerillo any less qualified than any of these “career prosecutors”?
She is not a pathological narcissist that speaks with sour grapes in her mouth like current or even past SC judges. One newly appointed SC judge from the up state with a heavy southern accent did not last long after screaming from the bench concerning a horribly rogue and lawless attorney’s dirty moves, “ain’t no FBI agents know the law!”
Talk about a nut!
In any event, I thank God that the Fits team is undaunted to report what they do.
They failed to mention that the same delegation told another member of the bar, who was absolutely qualified, to not run for the seat because he was a democrat. That is what started this shit storm to begin with.
At least anonymous admits it’s a coordinated and intentional assassination by the bar.
Goodness … wonder what happened to FAIRNESS when judicial temperament is on the table?
I wonder how Guffy feels about his president and other US officials being “tough on crime” and convicted felons “going to jail and coming right back out” in the cases of numerous police assaulters from 6 January 2021 hitting the streets with all the rights to buy guns and do it again—or, I the case of the orange-headed supreme leader—never stepping foot inside prison at all?
Sorry but in a conservative state the majority of the electorate want judges who will put convicted people in jail not dole out token punishment. The conversation should be about building more prisons, not finding alternative sentencing methods. The bench in Greenville is suffering right now with the newly appointed democrat female judge who barely knows court rules or basic law. I hope victims of crimes don’t go into her courtroom looking for justice.
What happened to overhauling the corrupt JMSC? This good old boy system has gone on way too long. Get those trial lawyers off the committee
This woman is more qualified the other females who were elected to the bench.
Like the SC female who was once given a black robe. After one year presiding over hearings, a corrupt and lawless female SC attorney was put in her place by the other party in the case. The court was alerted that one of he head FBI agents in the state was prepared to charge the rogue female lawyer The new judge to the beach who was from the upstate reacted. She screamed at the top of her lungs during the hearing in a heavy southern accent, “a’nt no FBI agents no’s da law!”
That female judge didn’t seek another term.
You should have seen the JMSC hearing for Judge Monet Pincus in November…what a clown show. 4 complainants, although 1 wasn’t very convincing, the other 3 were.
Thurmond’s kin had to stand up and defend her because the complaints were so awful….looks like that one was swept right under the bus. Odd that the head of a major law firm that works with Pincus often was in attendance too…they even had a little “pow wow” outside of the building yucking it up.
“Appearance of impropriety-what’s that?”-Judge Pincus
Either appoint judges like the federal system: Governor nominates, Senate confirms. Or popular election — works for Probate Judges
I was there for 87 out of 89 screenings.
A few of the bigger JMSC bamboozles are as follows:
Judge Kristi “Lenient on Pedophiles, Cruel to Senior Citizens” Curtis;
Justin “Most Qualified, but Not Nominated” Williams;
Judge Monet”Reunification Therapy, Marketing Ploy” Pincus;
Judge Jan Bromell “Lock up the Innocent” Holmes;
Judge Rochelle “Sealed Records For My Protection ” Conits;
Timothy “Do Better” Madden;
Judge Eugene “Three Dead… Might as Well Try Circuit Court” Warr;
Judge Joseph “Medical Kidnap” Smithdeal;
Judge W. Marsh “Gone Fishin” Robertson;
Judge M. Scott “Real Estate Fraud” Rankin;
Judge Deadra “Friend of Luke Rankin” Jefferson;
Amanda “Goin’ out to celebrate” Whittle;
Christian “”Fake Feud” Spradley; and
Judge Timothy “Defaming Private Citizens on Camera” Pogue.
And if you really want a clip for the highlight reel…. check out pro se litigant Rhonda Meisner during screening of Judge Michelle Hurley.
Before the screening began, Erin Crawford leaned over to Senator Attorney, Chairman, Committee Head (SACCH or “SAC”) Luke Rankin and remarked, “You know Meisner is gonna try to keep talking, right?”SAC Rankin agreed and called Rutherford over. Rutherford, Strom, and Rankin had a confab on “how to shut Meisner down.” Strom suggested they “put her on a timer.”
Rankin agreed but instructed that someone must “make a Motion on record.”
I didn’t hear the next part because Rutherford turned his back to me, but it appeared Rutherford was tapped to make said motion.
When the screening commenced, Rutherford, Strom and Rankin triple teamed pro se Meisner who held her own admirably, thereby proving the three “top litigators” in the state have likely not litigated an actual case in front of an impartial judge in years (if ever).
When Rutherford commenced to further bully Meisner, attempting to cut her off and move to put her on a timer, Meisner stated (paraphrasing here), “respectfully, Representative Rutherford, I’m not finished speaking.”
I’m not sure if it’s on video, but Representative Rutherford’s mouth gained before clamping shut. At that point, he completely disengaged and played on his phone during the rest of the screening. Apparently, after Meisner shut down Rutherford, the other EIGHT attorneys on the panel were too scared to challenge her lest they be publicly shamed as well.
