Law and Ethics in the Soprano State.

August 26, 2010 at 11:49 A.M. "Errors" that had been previously corrected and a few not seen before were inserted in this essay. New essays examining further New Jersey corruption in the scandal brewing for Richard J. Codey (along with his brother) and New Jersey's loss of $400 MILLION in school aid are coming up. The putrid aroma of corruption accompanies N.J. to Washington these days. Did politically-motivated hackers insert "errors" in New Jersey's proposal and submissions in order to undermine Mr. Christie's image as an effective leader? Was Mr. Schundler doing a favor for the "Jersey Boys" by selling out his boss?

May 28, 2010 at 3:14 P.M. Spyware is still focused on these blogs and harassment is continuous. Censorship and threats must be expected. Mr. Christie, this is not a situation that you can continue to ignore. The whole world is watching.

September 19, 2009 at 4:51 P.M. "Errors" inserted and corrected since my previous review of this essay, probably the "error-insertion" is at the request of the "Lesbian love-fest" in Trenton. In response, I will focus on "sex, lies, and videotape" among New Jersey judges. Profiles of so-called "colleagues" and "friends" from the old days are coming up.

September 4, 2009 at 3:42 P.M. A letter was removed from one of my words in this essay since my previous review. In response, I will focus on alleged lesbian "love-fests" involving Jaynee LaVecchia and Anne Milgram. Enjoy the "carpet-munching" ladies -- I mean, "women." Any more defacements of this essay or censorship today? OAE? ("New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics" and "New Jersey's Jennifer Velez is a 'Dyke Magnet!'")

March 14, 2009 at 12:08 P.M. I have just received a notice that Yahoo "briefcase" service is closing. I will keep files in my Yahoo e-mail, undeleted. I will also create a blog at My Space. I will continue to search for sites where I can create blogs/groups, also places offering the opportunity to upload files. Perverse and bizarre judicial sex lives will be discussed, at length, in this blog soon. Fortunately, it was not necessary to visit My Space.

Friends of Neil Cohen, Esq. in the N.J. judiciary seem to like children so much. Kelly Anne Michaels and Jay Romano make a lovely couple, don't they? ("Jay Romano and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")

New indictments, I am told, are expected shortly in New Jersey. MSN groups is still "closed." The Internet is likely to "close," I am told, at any time. I am skeptical about these notices that I continue to receive. Perhaps they are sent by "Publish America"? Lulu? ("How Censorship Works in America" and "Censorship and Cruelty in New Jersey.") Cubanazos will be happy to know that there's a sale at K-Mart where you can get pointy shoes, plastic covers for the furniture, guitars, and a statue of Virgin Mary that lights up at night. Enjoy. ("Miami's Cubanoids Protest Against Peace!")

March 2, 2009 at 10:52 A.M. Efforts to reach my MSN group were, again, unsuccessful this morning. MSN groups has "closed." I have created a blog at MSN. I will create duplicates at Yahoo and My Space.

March 6, 2009 at 10:16 A.M. MSN Blogs also "closed." The Xanadu matter seems to be heating up, Senator Bob. Is there anything I can do to help? How many times have you been questioned by the F.B.I. in connection with Xanadu, Senator? Any word from the grand juries? Menendez is now representative of the Senate of the United States of America in 2010? ("Does Senator Menendez Have Mafia Friends?" and "Senator Bob, the Babe, and the Big Bucks.")

Computer attacks and harassment makes addition of images impossible at this time. New Jersey's hackers make it necessary for me to focus on the sex lives of Superior Court judges in essays that are coming up. I will not "stop." I will not "adjust." I will not legitimate the atrocities committed against me and covered-up by the corrupt and/or incompetent Ms. Milgram or Mr. Rabner. I will continue to rub their faces in the excrement that is their state's legal system.

I enjoyed a pretty good run today before the usual criminality obstructed my Internet work. In response, I will focus on Ms. Milgram's rumored "lesbian loyalties" leading to a betrayal of her oath as N.J. Attorney General. Persons committing crimes should be prosecuted whatever their sexual-orientation. Do you agree, Ms. Milgram? Ms. Poritz? Mr. Rabner? Do you judge my "ethics," ladies and gentlemen?

Holidays provide opportunities for more vandalism and censorship, even when American "freedom" is celebrated. Pictured with this essay at Critique is gal-pal Debbie Poritz, wearing a lovely smile, probably the last time she voted "for" the death penalty for minority men. Meow Mix? Friend of Diana? Does Diana "hook you up," Debbie? Eliot Spitzer can give you some hot numbers. I am aware that New Jersey has now repealed the death penalty. This is probably a disappointment to Ms. Poritz who is said to be hostile to minority males. ("Deborah T. Poritz and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")

How can N.J. judges and lawyers remain passive to corruption's delegitimation of your legal system? Insertions of new "errors" allows me to repost and reemphazise this essay.

September 16, 2008 at 9:13 A.M. The word "willful" has been "corrected" at least ten times (in exactly the same way) in this essay. I am devastated and forlorn. George E. Norcross, III is next.

Today my computer troubles and frustrations have been about normal. I have posted a single essay six or seven times, after insertions of "errors" and other attempts at frustration and censorship. I am quite serene. I am determined to persist in my struggle. It occurs to me that there must be somebody actually working to bring about these frustrations, engaging in cyberwarfare against me (probably for money), over a period of years. It's nothing personal. I try to imagine what that person's life is like. How do people reach those levels of insensitivity to the reality of another human being's life and pains? Soldiers for the Democrat machine in Jersey, huh?

My response will always be to come right back at ya, forever. I will be focusing on more New Jersey criminality and hypocrisy in the legal system as well as incompetence among Trenton officials. How are you doing, Anne? 24 intrusion attempts against my computer today? Or is it more? A virus or other nefarious program prevents me from writing for more than 3 to 5 minutes at a time, as of August 9, 2008.

No change in the "situation" as of September 22, 2008 at 7:51 P.M.

Access to my MSN group is denied March 1, 2009 at 5:41 P.M.

This has nothing to do with agreement or hostility to my opinions, by the way, which doesn't bother me at all. I suspect that it's about cold, hard cash. New Jersey's bosses have their cybersquads. Luckily, so do the feds. And others. Somebody pays you to make another person's life miserable with the objective of silencing that person, or causing permanent emotional harm to someone who has experienced torture. So you do it. As long as the money is green, who cares? You accept the money, knowing perfectly well what is expected, being quite prepared to deliver that "service." Perhaps this willingness to engage in computer crime is an example of New Jersey's legal ethics among politically-connected lawyers? ("New Jersey's Politically-Connected Lawyers On the Tit.")

Is it possible to reach people like you, Mr. Rabner, through rational arguments or appeals to conscience? I doubt it. However, I will continue to provide philosophical and ethical instruction, free of charge. One ex-hired gun to another -- you are heading for a fall. Do loathsome people in New Jersey's corridors of power -- like Stuart Rabner, Esq. -- have the nerve to speak to me of "ethics"? What's your price, Stuart? How many hundred dollar bills do you need, Stu? ("No More Cover-Ups and Lies, Chief Justice Rabner.")

I am thinking of a younger self. I am wearing a gold and silver Rolex, gray suit, I am heading to the Opera House in my new German car. I have dinner reservations at a very expensive restaurant in Manhattan. I am happy as a lark. My office is doing well. I have just been retained by two enforcers and illegal "debt collectors," who were impressed by my efforts on behalf of a "friend" getting a walk on an assault charge. I was also impressed and delighted with myself. I never plunged to the disgusting levels of my cybertormentors or New Jersey's mafiosi in local government. However, I was not what I should have been. I was -- at least on the surface -- a typical member of the New Jersey Bar Association, slithering through the sewage that is the Garden State's corrupt legal system and courthouse culture. ("Corrupt Law Firms, Senator Bob, and New Jersey Ethics.")

I wonder whether the fact that I was doing well was a source of envy? How much was stolen from my office? Six figures? Who was sharing in the loot? (See "Terry Tuchin, Diana Lisa Riccioli, and New Jersey's Agency of Torture" and "What is it like to be tortured?") OAE? How many attorneys were stealing clients and money from my office? Were they kicking back to Senator Bob? Jose Ginarte? Edgar Navarette? John at the OAE? What was your cut, John? ("New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics.")

I didn't care what these clients had done. Neither did my colleagues. None of us would say so, publicly, of course. Privately, lawyers are utterly cynical about themselves, clients, prosecutors and judges as well as law. Right, Judge Oliveri? In N.J., they should be. I wanted cash. I didn't worry about who might be getting hurt by these "clients." This is fully in keeping with the so-called "New Jersey Rules of Legal Ethics" -- even if it is immoral -- provided that one is hypocritical about it. I am prepared to quote prominent members of the N.J. Bar Association ("in good standing") and judges to corroborate the point. Any challenges on that issue? I thought not.

January 20, 2010 at 2:42 P.M. Several days of cyberwarfare have obstructed my ability to update my security service. I will continue to run scans and to struggle against these attacks.I realize that the system demands representation for all. I agree with that aim. I am referring to an insensitivity that threatens the humanity of many lawyers. All of the pressures are on the side of money and "success" -- defined materially -- none are on the side of goodness or ethics. I was regarded by many of my so-called "colleagues" as "too nice." Compared with most of the other legal vampires, I was a pussycat.

I dislike and have nothing in common with most of the people I dealt with professionally in my lawyerly life. They are mostly idiots. Some are greedy idiots. Others are obnoxious types (they usually become judges), a few are brain-dead morons, who become extremely wealthy as personal injury lawyers by selling their files a wee bit short. All exceptions granted. How are you, Mr. Ginarte? Any troubles with the OAE, Jose? Good luck. Most of them only want cash, just like criminals and whores. In fact, too many N.J. lawyers are criminals and whores, or worse, except that what they do is usually legal. ("Does it look like I'm negotiating?" and "One of New Jersey's Highly Ethical Attorneys Has a Problem" as well as "New Jersey's Legal System is a Whore House.")

The contempt and disgust for "ethics" expressed by most lawyers and (in N.J.) even the state's disgraced Supreme Court -- whose conduct and inaction sickens people -- is a matter of daily chit chat in courthouse cafeterias. Lawyers are eager to share little tid bits of information about made men in judicial robes and the antics of their colleagues. I have a good memory for those stories. There's a lot more coming. The values of our ruthless capitalism were well-entrenched in me during my law school years.

It shouldn't suprise us that New Jersey's legislature, judiciary, and the state bar association are filled to the brim with despicable scum buckets -- like Debbie Poritz (who likes the ladies), Jaynee LaVecchia (who likes money), Virginia Long (who dislikes the "little people"). There is a logic to the endless supply of such personalities in Trenton's public life. Something in the legal system produces these pathologies in people -- greed, insensitivity, cruelty, willful stupidity. More illegal blocking of my cable signal, obstructions to posting, deletion of letters and other "error" insertions are routine at the hands of N.J. officials or hirelings. (See "The captive void of noble rage.") These people are sworn to uphold civil liberties. You decide what their oaths are worth -- not much, in my opinion. You are going to "restore" me? Please, don't insult my intelligence. We have arrived at a point where whatever New Jersey does will be about restoring themselves to some slight semblance of credibility and legitimacy.

New Jersey is the worst jurisdiction in the nation in terms of legal and political corruption as well as organized crime's influence on public institutions. That much should be evident from the facts available in these posts. ("New Jersey's Feces-Covered Supreme Court" and "New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System.") There is something about my daily struggles against censorship (twenty minutes of war before I could write a word today) that goes deeper -- suggesting an increasing prevalence of nihilism and greed among Americans, especially within our legal culture -- as demonstrated by some of the farcical proceedings called "trials" on news programs.

We are becoming meaner, more vicious, colder, greedier, and more ruthless. It may be worthwhile to look at the social forces producing these reactions. ("Senator Obama and the New Yorker" and "Skinny People Dressed in Black.")

"Sometimes people joke that New Jersey's sky-high taxes are almost justified by pointing to the legislature -- a collection of misfits, self-serving loons, and boss-created puppets -- and asking, 'Where else could you have so much entertainment in one place?' ..."

Talk of conscience on the part of these people always gets a laugh. These are the repulsive people selecting and becoming New Jersey's judges and legal ethics officials:

"People of conscience, morals, and ethics would feel a tinge of embarassment about this, but the New Jersey pols have long since moved past that. They created an oligarchy (rule by the few) that morphed into a kleptocracy -- a corrupt government in which funds are used to sustain private wealth and keep officials in power. The masses are taken advantage of to make life easier for those relative few who have the gall to actually call themselves 'public servants.' ..."

Bob Ingle & Sandy McClure, The Soprano State, pp. 105-106. ("America's Holocaust" and "Senator Bob, the Babe, and the Big Bucks" as well as "Does Senator Menendez have Mafia friends?" and "Is Senator Menendez a Suspect in Mafia-Political Murder in New Jersey?")

I will discuss a few prominent lawyers and judges CONNECTED to big time Trenton politicians -- assuming that "big time" and "Trenton politicians" are not mutually exclusive categories -- and the many ways they rip off the people to the amusement of the OAE, DRB, and any other acronym entrusted with enforcing legal ethics in the Garden State. Attorney ethics is more of a joke in New Jersey than anywhere else.

New Jersey's lawyers are the biggest whores in America's culture. Garden State lawyers are the walking turds at N.J.'s OAE. The thieves you are about to meet wear suits, smile nicely, then steal the tax payers' money as "officers of the court." Judges look the other way for a piece of the action. OAE officials are distracted ass-kissers looking for a promotion. Put your seat belts on. This will be a bumpy ride. ("Abuse and Exploitation of Women in New Jersey.")

"Justice" Jaynee LaVecchia. Where are the $300 MILLION, Jaynee? Are you "connected"? How well do you know, Diana? Are you two gal-pals "tight"? Gambinos? Lucheses? Genoveses?Let's begin at the top:

Jaynee La Vecchia went to the "Supreme Court from being Commissioner of Banking and Insurance. Prior to that she was in the attorney general's office and served as an administrative law judge for the Office of Administrative Law (a low-level court)." (Ingle & McLure.)

The Office of Administrative Law (OAL, an acronym!) is roughly comparable to Superior Court, where some very complex cases involving utilities or education law were argued when I worked there. The average Superior Court judge in New Jersey hearing uncontested divorces all day would not begin to understand some of that litigation. Jaynee was disliked, intensely, by staff and colleagues (all would deny it today) at the OAL, since she was clearly a politician with no interest in the office, or in anything other than her own career. It appears that LaVecchia is even worse than people imagined, being part of a "crew" that included Zazzali and Verniero. Get this:

Jaynee LaVecchia was involved in "a highly controvesial merger of a health plan that resulted in the disappearance of some $300 MILLION. Consumer advocates were outraged. An editorial in the Courrier-Post outlined the shady circumstances:'... HIP is bankrupt. ... People had to find new medical care. Donors and hospitals were not paid. Up to $300 MILLION is missing.' ... "

The Soprano State, pp. 140-141. (emphasis added!)

I don't know about you, but if an attorney were to discover $300 MILLION "missing" from his or her trust account, he or she should find it somewhat troublesome. Right, Mr. Ginarte? Mr. Garcia? Edgar Navarrete? Such an attorney might well find that he or she has a little ethics problem and a criminal indictment to deal with. Not a dime was taken from my trust account. I have never been accused of a crime in a state that is adept at manufacturing such accusations against "dissidents" or "trouble makers." They sure tried to get me to commit a crime.

For example, the OAE is excellent at SOLICITING ethics complaints against politically designated attorneys, often inventing them before "evaluating" such solicited complaints in violation of their own ethics rules. Union City issues parking tickets to cars even when they happen to be in the repair shop, right Bob? Jaynee and her co-conspirator, Peter G. Verniero ("Peter G.") are not worried at all:

"LaVecchia approved the sweetheart deal negotiated in secret as an 'asset' sale rather than a complete sale, which it was. That meant the new owner didn't have to be classified as a health maintenance organization (HMO) subject to state regulations about maintaining financial services. Then, LaVecchia left the Attorney General's Office to be insurance commissioner just in time to oversee the liquidation of HIP, so she dealt with it at both ends." Ibid.

Conflict of interest? Appearance of impropriety? Ethics charges? What the hell. It's good old Jaynee. She's buying lunch for everybody. For some reason, LaVecchia's got a lot of money these days. How many people participated in "whacking up" this filthy lucre we may never know. It really pisses you off at the OAE that I have never been arrested, huh? Keep trying. Maybe you can frame me for something. Is it still $10,000 for a frame-up? George E. Norcross, III and Commerce Bank? Do you think that any other attorney engaging in such conduct would not have been disbarred? LaVecchia is a "Supreme Court Justice" in New Jersey? You wanna threaten my life? Threaten to frame me for something? Ethics charges? ("A Letter From the DRB, in New Jersey" and "Another Letter From the DRB, in New Jersey.")

One of Jaynee's colleagues -- a Latino -- was sanctioned for giving someone his business card. Jaynee is rude, ill-prepared, stupid, and offensive to litigants in attorney ethics matters. Displacement? Projection? This is the kind of bullshit tossed against others, let's give it back to good old Jaynee who has never been burdened with ethics of any kind. ("Jaynee LaVecchia and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey" and "Peter G. Verniero and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")

Alleged associations between Jaynee and Gambino crime figures can neither be confirmed nor denied at this time. Jaynee is said to be a good friend of Mr. Zisa in Hackensack. Schiavone Construction? ("Is there a Mafia Informer in New Jersey?" and "Mafia Influence in New Jersey's Courts and Politics.") The exact relationship between Jaynee and Anne Milgram or Debbie Poritz is not known. Diana? LaVecchia pal, "Justice" Peter G. Verniero is New Jersey's most constant friend of Racial-Profiling. ("Driving While Black [DWB] in New Jersey" and "How to Execute the Innocent in New Jersey.")

Jaynee and Peter G. should be removed from the bench and disbarred. Nothing will happen to either of them. (See again: "New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System" and "Deborah T. Poritz and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")

Do you wish to speak to me of "ethics," Stuart Rabner? Do you intend to persuade the public that New Jersey's disgraced justices are beyond reproach? Are N.J. judges more "ethical" than the rest of us? ("Stuart Rabner and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")

I think that New Jersey judges are less ethical than most people. However, they are far more crooked than the average guy or gal. More detailed descriptions of mafia-affiliated judges and how they get appointed -- including the behind-the-scenes politics -- will be coming up. You're gonna love it. Still $25,000 to buy a New Jersey judgeship from corrupt politicians? More if you need to finagle the "four-way-check"? Go ahead, tell me how "ethical" you are compared to me:

"... Former Attorney General Peter G. Verniero relied on a consultant hired by HIP to determine HIP's market value. The consultant's fee was based on finding a buyer for HIP."

Conflict of interest, boys? Kickbacks?

"If so many people hadn't been harmed, this would have been hilarious, Government [judiciary] by the Three Stooges. But millions [of dollars] are missing and people were hurt."

Hey, "PeterG" -- any truth to the rumors of Lucchese family friends? Do you know Kay LiCausi, Pete? Where are the $300 MILLION? Off on a space ship? Nobody knows. Nobody cares. They care about late fees at Blockbuster. Silencing me. Hacking into my computer. No smoking in public places. Did Zulima Farber pick up the man she lives with after a traffic stop where he did not get tickets? Who cares? Where's the $300 MILLION, Jaynee? Who got a piece of that pie, Jaynee? A boy named Stu'? Debbie? George E. Norcross, III, as alleged by so many people?

These are the lowlifes and disgusting frauds commenting on my ethics and character, presuming to label me. I am going to label them. ("What is it like to be tortured?")

The U.S. Attorney's Office has no comment on pending investigations nor will that office confirm the convening of a Grand Jury in this matter and another to look into the "activities" of Senator Bob. You will need a third Grand Jury for the crimes detailed in these essays by me, all of which are supported by objective sources and solid research even as they are covered in media silence. I wonder why that is true? ("What is it like to be plagiarized?" and "Incoherence in 'The New York Times.'")

Who's your friend at the Times, Anne Milgram? ("Jay Romano and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")

Tell your friends in the media about these facts. I understand more international coverage has begun to appear. ("Fidel Castro's 'History Will Absolve Me.'")

September 4, 2009 at 3:29 P.M. A letter was removed from a word in the foregoing paragraph as part of the cyberharassment directed against me. In response, I will focus on allegations that Anne Milgram and Jaynee LaVecchia have a little lesbian love-fest going on which would explain why no investigation into the disappearance of $300 MILLION has taken place. Hey, wait till Jaynee's husband finds out about this? Maybe he'll join in? Try taking out another letter, girls. I mean, "women." ("Another Mafia Sweep in New Jersey and Anne Milgram is Clueless" and "Anne Milgram Does It Again" and "Trenton's Nasty Lesbian Love-Fest!" and "Jennifer Velez is a 'Dyke Magnet.'")

As for the politically connected promiment members of the bar, most are concerned to "suck the tit" -- that is, the public treasury -- making an art of nepotism. Referring to one prominent (but typical) assistant attorney general under McGreevey, "Paul Levinsohn," Ingle and McClure concluded: "... he had [possibly] lied to the U.S. government in writing." (p. 39.)

As one prominent member of the bar explained to me "it's all about who lies best." Is that right, Howard Brownstein, Esq.? You want to talk to me about who is lying, boys? Any time. Where's the OAE? DRB? Any other acronyms? So what? Paul's not an apolitical Latino that we've tortured. We'll let him slide. How does a Jew become Mengele, Debbie? What does it take for corruption to happen, Jaynee? Money? Women? "We can learn from ya!" Right, Terry? Ridgewood or Paramus these days, Terry Tuchin? Or is it "Stacy"? How's the medical office in Paramus? Your daughter? Using another name, Terry? How's Diana doing with the ladies? Did both of you steal from my office? Did both of you contact clients secretly? Did you or N.J. attorneys, secretly, write letters on behalf of third parties, without identifying yourselves, soliciting grievances against me? How many of you had sex with Marilyn while she was under hypnosis, huh? Is that therapy, Diana? How many of you were stealing clients or money (both?) from my office for years? The mafia doesn't like me because I "don't play ball"? You're right about that. Who wants to get into "ethics" issues with me? ("New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics.")

Senator Robert, a.k.a. "Bob," a.k.a. "Roberto," a.k.a. "BobbyM," a.k.a. "Pappa," Menendez and friends insist that they "are for all the people" -- especially the chumps putting up money for the Xanadu deal that may never happen. YOU are one of the chumps if you pay taxes in New Jersey or anywhere in America. $2 BILLION pissed away in the Meadowlands. Where's the mall? Who's "unethical," Senator Bob? ("Does Senator Menendez Have Mafia Friends?" and "Senator Bob, the Babe, and the Big Bucks.")

Senator Raymond Lesniak, Richard J. Codey, George E. Norcross, III ("make the trouble maker a judge to get rid of him!"), Senator "Bob" Menendez have made the exploitation of government resources a specialty. (pp. 71-103.) All of them, except for Norcross -- and many more working under them -- are lawyers who do not draw the ire of the "F-Troop" of legal agencies, the OAE. I wonder why? Is the OAE "political"? Are the so-called "walking turds" at the OAE on the take?

No hypnosis for them. No drugging. No rapes. No illegal entry into their homes and offices. No thefts of their goods, money or CRIMINAL searching of their books and papers. No hacking into their computers. No violation of fiduciary relations. No secrecy. Any "errors" inserted yet? Was Norcross really protected by New Jersey's then Attorney General, Peter ("See No Evil") Harvey, Esq. from a federal law enforcement inquiry, as suggested by then U.S. Attorney Christopher J. Christie? I wonder what happened to Chris Christie? What, if anything, did Mr. Harvey receive for his services? A box of cookies? Are the Jersey Boys really targeting Mr. Christie to prevent him from becoming governor because they are afraid of him? They should be. If so, their efforts may not be successful. (One measly new "error" is not enough to please me.)

I am told that, as of September 19, 2009 at 4:39 P.M., I can expect more revenge attacks against these writings. Good. That means I'm hurting them. Tell your friends in law enforcement about this joke of a legal system in New Jersey. (Again: "Corrupt Law Firms, Senator Bob, and New Jersey Ethics.")

The OAE is gathering place for retired whores of the legal system and lap dogs of the establishment, who protect the worst offenders and go after apolitical types (like me) in order to convey the appearance (while avoiding the reality) of legal ethics enforcement. The concept of a conflict of interest does not exist for the crooked OAE, provided that an attorney is politically- or mob-connected -- which amounts to the same thing in New Jersey. I will focus on only two of these shysters -- Menendez and Lesniak. ("New Jersey's Mafia Culture in Law and Politics.")

More politicians, promiment members of the bar, judges and how they got to be judges, alleged mobsters will be featured in forthcoming essays. You want to talk to me about "ethics," Debbie? How can someone so anxious to cover her ass judge the ethics of others? Keep pretending that nothing's happening. Coming soon is the essay: "Is Joel T. Leyner, Esq. New Jersey's Slimiest Fixer?" Perhaps I will "meet" New York Times journalists Manohla Dargis? Ginger Thompson? Jim Holt? I am planning to write about former colleagues, like Nydia Hernandez, at length. I suspect that Manohla Dargis and Ginger Thompson are the same person and that both "gals" are working for Bob Menendez. Naturally, everybody will deny this in America's independent media. ("What is it like to be plagiarized?")

Are the journalists listed above -- and others at America's "newspaper of record" -- really the same "political" person? Is there a secret "contribution" to their articles made by persons in public life? Would a journalist accept money from N.J. politicians to censor a tortured dissident, who is denied earned recognition and publication opportunities, even as his writings are plagiarized? How much cash is needed to "insert" a little something in the Times? ("What is it like to be plagiarized?" and "What is it like to be censored in America?")

I thought we had an independent press in America? ("Manohla Dargis Strikes Again!" and "What is it like to be plagiarized?" then "Censorship!")

Robert ("call be "Bobby, like Kennedy") Menendez while "a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, ... helped [an agency paying him $300,000 in rent] to get federal grants. Employees of the agency, the North Hudson Community Action Corporation, contributed $36,450.00 to Menendez's campaigns. The lease stated the agency's ability to pay rent was dependent on the agency's getting certain federal or state funding."

Ingle & McLure, The Soprano State, pp. 74-75.

No conflict of interest? No quid pro quo? No misuse of federal office for personal gain? No wonder they don't want me on-line. Nice of them to spell it out in the contract.

Menendez claimed that he spoke to the House Ethics Committee about the matter. However, the only person who might have confirmed the full contents of such a conversation is dead. Being dead is never a problem for New Jersey persons to continue to participate in the political process and draw a salary. Perhaps this dead person will provide a statement for Menendez from the great beyond. ("New Jersey is the Home of the Living Dead" and "New Jersey is Lucky Luciano's Havana?" and "Is Union City, New Jersey Meyer Lansky's Whore House?")

I wonder whether Menendez was getting some kickbacks on the money stolen from my office? Whatta-ya say, Bobby? Did you get to wet your beak?

Menendez finagled $30 MILLION of the taxpayers' money for a development deal in Bayonne where his buddies are making a fortune, probably finding ways to show their appreciation to code-name "Pappa." Reports of lethal CHROMIUM at this location are "unconfirmed." So what if people die of cancer? It won't come back to Menendez. Yes, it is spelled "Pappa" in Union City. (See "Does it look like I'm negotiating?" and "The Torture of Persons.")

"Menendez suffered another blow to his campaign when a tape recorded conversation between Scarinsci -- who ran Hudson County for Menendez -- and a Dr. Sandoval was made public. The secretly recorded conversation appears to have Scarinsci threatening Sandoval's $1 MILLION contract with the county if he doesn't do Menendez a favor by hiring a certain Dr. Vicente Ruiz." Ibid.

If this Vicente Ruiz is hired, you don't think he'll kick back to the guy who brung him? I do. Menendez and/or his people met with one of my clients without identifying him- or themselves to the attorney representing her, without offering any explanation, without complying with a number of other legal ethics rules. Violations of these rules could result in disbarment. No charges have been brought against Senator Bob or his people, to my knowledge. Why not? (See again: "Does Senator Menendez Have Mafia Friends?" and "Senator Bob, the Babe, and the Big Bucks.")

Getting nervous, John? How many other clients did you or your people -- Union City officials -- meet with "secretly" in order to cajole or purchase complaints against me, Bobby? ("More Problems for Menendez -- Tapes!") Attorneys in New Jersey meet secretly with persons represented by colleagues -- who are political opponents or rivals -- fail to identify themselves, write letters in the clients' names, then pretend not to know of the matter. The OAE "don't know from nothing." Sometimes, they make the mistake of writing a letter in the name of a client who does not know the language in which the letter is written or who happens to be in prison when the letter is mailed out. That's called a boo-boo. Go ahead, insert another "error" in this essay. Let's see if that tactic will stop me.

Take a look at my discussion of the "Publish America" episode and the smear attempt concerning the book published by "Anonymous." Use of public office and resources for such criminal and unethical purposes is a criminal offense. New Jersey judges say: "What the hell. It's good old Bob." ("Is Senator Bob 'For' Human Rights?")

Alleged associations by Menendez with underworld figures appear to be confirmed:

"Menendez worked to ease the prison transfer of Nicholas Parlavecchio, a racketeer" -- apparently, unrelated to Jaynee -- "convicted on cocaine charges, [probably coming out of Miami's Cuban mob circles,] who was eventually sent to the same federal prison as his son, jailed for similar crimes." (p. 76.)

This is what Menendez calls "family values." ("American Hypocrisy and Luis Posada Carriles.")

"Parlavecchio [the name means "speak old man" in Italian!] is one of several alleged underworld figures" who "knows" Bob. Yep, Menendez is definitely the kind of guy you want in the U.S. Senate. How's the babe, Senator Bob? You get to see her, huh? Lucky guy. Still like the Cafeteria in Union City and those Cuban sandwiches? Me too. You're gonna love the chicharrones. ("Pork Rinds" -- the voters are the fried pork.) Go ahead, insert some more "errors," boys.

George E. Norcross, III, is quoted on tapes plotting to get a political opponent out of the way:

"... 'Make him a fucking judge,' Norcross said. 'Harrington disappears; Harrington becomes a judge, whatever the case. We move on.' ..." (The Soprano State, at p. 91.)

Another full essay on Norcross is coming up. These are his words, captured on recordings. "We all have to move on." More tapes, allegedly, concerning Menendez are rumored to be forthcoming. Let's wait and see what pops up.

Next is Senator Raymond "Shyster Ray" Lesniak. I like Norcross, by the way, although I never met him. Norcross doesn't pretend to be holier than thou. Notice that incompetent hangers-on become N.J. judges and political "tit suckers" drawing public salaries. This may explain the appointment of Debbie Poritz to the Supreme Court. ("Is Senator Menendez a Suspect in Political-Mafia Murder in New Jersey?" and "Is Senator Bob 'For' Human Rights?")

"Lesniak claims that his law firm has not done legal work in his district for twenty-five years. That didn't mean he passed up government work. The Home News Tribune's Hopkins wrote that several lawyers in Lesniak's firm drew annual salaries from government entities outside Union County in 2003 ranging from $1,500 to $58,063. 'Some of those lawyers submitted additional legal bills to the government they worked for ... ranging from $9,005 to $11,202,' Hopkins said. 'One attorney in the firm was not paid a salary for representing North Bergen last year but submitted bills for $215,687.' ..."

The Soprano State, at p. 101.

I wonder how much, if any, of that two hundred grand was coming back to Mayor Big Nicky Sacco under the table? Sacco has three jobs at the public's expense. I believe that Sacco is now up to four jobs, besides whatever het gets under the table (if anything).

"Lesniak earned $4,466,494" -- more than $4 MILLION! -- "from Woodbridge as its legal counsel while McGreevey was mayor, from 1992 to 2001." Ibid.

I wonder how much Lesniak was kicking back to McGreevey, allegedly? By comparison, reports that Richard J. Codey "arranged" a job for his brother pales into insignificance. Codey is Mother Theresa next to these guys -- and Codey's no prize.

These are the "scumbuckets" (I say that in the nicest way) in positions of power and influence in New Jersey's judiciary and politics. I am not worried about whether such people approve of my "ethics." New Jersey's legal system disgraces the United States Constitution and the very notion of legality or ethics. For such people to judge and sentence others is hypocrisy and fraud elevated to an art form. How dare you people speak to anyone about "ethics" when you have no ethics in New Jersey's Supreme Court and judiciary? You people make me sick.
