We're better than Bill Lockyer and don't make jokes about prison rape here.

Not funny. We’re better than Bill Lockyer and don’t make jokes about prison rape here.

There is very little reporting on it. If he's convicted, it will likely be a while before the sentencing. You'll have time to plan ahead. Jerry,

I don’t know how long the trial will be. There is very little reporting on it.

If he’s convicted, it will likely be a while before the sentencing. You’ll have time to plan ahead.

I like and respect him. But I cannot shake my experience of when I first laid eyes upon him. the scene: A field trip from UCLA law (and you have to love a field trip in graduate school) to law and motion day in Judge Wilson's courtroom. I was just about to start a pleasant nap when Judge Wilson asked the attorney at the podium if that was the sum total of all his causes of action. [a Drexel-Burnham "clean-up" case - one of many] As the attorney thought, another member of his team stood up from their table and started to address the judge. Judge Wilson looked over, politely asked "What is your name?" and before the fellow could finish he name, Wilson yelled into his microphone -"SIT DOWN! DON'T SPEAK UNLESS YOU ARE AT THE PODIUM!" or words to that effect. My heartrate spiked up to the point that I thought I would vomit. I didn't. The Yagman case should be interesting.

After all, he paints himself as a people's hero type, and LAT won't cover it unless they can denounce the Bush administration with it. I'm glad LAW is picking up the slack--and quoting the right people. Maybe the LAT likes Yagman?
