Come on Judge Joe Give Us a Break.... A BatBlog Editorial

 

A special prosecutor was named yesterday to take over the drug court investigation. While commenting on the special prosecutor to the News/Tribune Drug court prosecutor , Judge Joe Weber whose court would hold any trial stemming from possible charges filed, stated  " I don't know who or what they maybe investigating" speaking of the Indiana St. Police investigation.

  Come on Judge Joe we think your a stand up guy and judge, but you would have to be living under a rock not to know what's going on. This story has been on all 4 local TV stations all local papers and even national news services. Two drug court employees have been suspended, one fired and it's the talk of the city and courthouse. Don't know for sure your relationship with Judge Jerry Jacobi, but I do know you went to high school together, and you would think it may have been brought up in conversation ??

  The BatBlog doesn't mind if you recuse yourself from any trial as you indicated you might, but give us a break about not knowing what's going on. I believe Judge Jacobi through his attorney said he wasn't aware of the drug court defendants being held in jail longer than they were supposed to and we don't buy that either.. Come on Judges if you all aren't aware of what's going on ...Who is  ???
