MSM ignores: Kerik hearing was on Jan 16, trial scheduled for Feb. 6

[npincus]

In the blizzard of nauseatingly repetitive punditry saturating our airwaves and print media, this nugget was completely ignored (just try to Google it ): Kerik's hearing for his 16-count indictment has come and gone (Jan 16) and his trial scheduled after Rudy's Last Stand in Florida.

All I can say is, should Rudy somehow pull off his Florida caper, just waiting for the Internets to explode on Feb 6th! :rofl:

There was no media coverage, but on January 16th Kerik was scheduled to appear in Westchester County Federal Court where he now faces a 16-count federal indictment. On November 9, 2007, he entered a “not guilty” plea. No reason was given for rescheduling this trial as Kerik remains free on bail – for now.

Kerik’s trial will commence on February 6th in White Plains. The court records state: “From in or about late 1998, through and including 2006, in the Southern District of New York and elsewhere, Bernard B. Kerik, the defendant, unlawfully, willfully and knowingly, having devised and intending to devise a scheme and artifice to defraud, and to deprive the City of New York and its citizens of their intangible right to the honest services of Bernard B. Kerik, and for the purpose of executing such scheme and artifice and attempting so to do, caused matters and thing to be delivered by mail according to the directions thereon, to with correspondence, invoices, prequalification and background forms, and bidding documents.”

I’ve had a gut feeling since 1995 that Kerik was a criminal to his heart. Way before his Bronx criminal trial – where he was glad to plead guilty to have his felony counts downgraded to misdemeanors and received a slap on the risk.

Now Kerik’s criminal record has finally caught up with him again. Still, Kerik is still not being charged with the crimes he committed working in civil service as a commissioner. His civil service crimes are being ignored. There are hundreds more counts that can be added to his criminal record, which have been ignored by many politicians, city, state and federal investigative agencies.

Kerik was allowed to spend the holidays in his home and around his family – when in fact – in 1998 when Kerik was the commissioner of Department of Correction, he acting in concert with Republican presidential candidate Giuliani fired hundreds of African and Latino Americans, both uniformed and non-uniformed civil servants right before the holiday. He accused them of being tax cheats, and turned a blind eye to his chief of staff and other high ranking members who also filed tax-exempt forms.

1. Hmmm.

The Rezko shit was all over the news yesterday.

I had to drive 2.5 hours one way for a concert, and then back home. I heard all about it, no matter where I turned.

P.S. I am not an Obama supporter, but I think he has already answered this.
