Just because I’m in Vegas (I’ll just say that the Unreal one would be in 7th heaven) and I left the headphones at the hotel doesn’t mean I can’t follow along with at least some of the news. I’ll even try to follow the first lessons in not taking gratuitous cheap shots at people like Dane County pers…er, DA Brian Blanchard.
Unless Dane County DA Brian Blanchard manages to convince AG J.B. Van Hollen to appeal the decision of the District 4 Court of Appeals to the state Supreme Court, former Assembly Speaker Scott Jensen (R) will get a new trial. Hopefully, it won’t be before a kangaroo court this time. The court found that not only were the instructions given to the jury by Dane County Circuit Judge Steven Ebert to convict were improper, but that his prohibition of Jensen’s defense team to introduce evidence that the former Assembly Democratic Caucus was doing the exact same thing without reason was improper.
Well, have to go. Next conference starts in about 15 minutes, and I have to finish my final votes. Remember, vote that slate on the right sidebar one last time before 4 pm Central.
