The BC Rail sale has to rank way up the scale of corruption. For the life of me I can not accept that the three operatives on trial here are the real guilty ones or acted on their own.<br /><br />These people would not have done what they are accused of without the direction and interference of the political masters they served. <br /><br />The old story of justice delayed is no justice fits here. The continual procedural delays, deletion of emails, the retirement unexpectantly of heir apparent Gary Collins, Christy Clark's quick retreat and of course Judith Ried's departure suggest to me this trial is a bomb ready to blow.rickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17824176585273550263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-38033656471659594862010-05-17T20:15:57.875-07:002010-05-17T20:15:57.875-07:00Ian--

More like addled by the meds.<br /><br />But I do understand that their is a ban on publications relating to proceedings without a jury present. Fair enough. That means speculation, I believe.<br /><br />So what could happen that would result in a delay at this point? That seems to be the question. Over at the CBC no brainers are speculating that the defense is unprepared, but can anyone believe that considering how they've run rings around Barardino? <br /><br />Plus Bolton once represented me in an action. Not one to be unprepared.<br /><br />And as we know, there were disclosure issues unresolved as recently as a month or so ago, so I'd say either Copley did a document dump at the very last minute, or Copley is exercising privilege contrary to government promises or, finally, Copley is seeking to keep docs already admitted under a Bennet ruling out of the trial (i.e. the application is a government application not a defense application) That's all I can think of. And they all point to government fiddling. And just to be clear that's speculation. Maybe Barardino found out that the date conflicts with a hair appointment.Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12011801827524524664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-89849242335092494622010-05-17T17:26:22.112-07:002010-05-17T17:26:22.112-07:00Ricky Freakin' Barnes!!!!
