Discussion: Supreme Court Won't Hear Appeal In Ex-Rep. Renzi Corruption Case

Discussion for article #237979

Three years?

This was pretty much the epitome of someone murdering their parents then claiming the court owes them sympathy because they are now orphans.

The legislative privilege cannot, nor has it ever before been suggested otherwise, protect a legislator from the criminal charge that he or she has intentionally used or promised to use his publicly elected office to advance a criminal purpose. The only thing remarkable about this appeal being rejected for certification is that it means the SCOTUS is currently no less than one vote short of being completely for sale.
