Ralph Cipriano has a new article in his bigtrial blog on new Philadephia D.A. Larry Krasner and his questionable decision to move forward with an appeal of Superior Court's decision to overturn the conviction of Msgr. Lynn conviction on endangering the welfare of a child.
Well, it didn't take long for our new D.A., Progressive Larry Krasner, to screw up big-time.
In a 24-page brief filed Tuesday in state Superior Court, Krasner, who's in his first month on the job, has decided to go forward with an appeal in the case of Msgr. William J. Lynn. He's the former secretary of clergy in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia whose 2012 conviction on one count of endangering the welfare of a child has twice been overturned by the state Superior Court.
In the brief, which is filled with all sorts of official dishonesty in what is already a travesty of a case, the new D.A. pretends that a trial judge last year didn't find the D.A.'s office under Krasner's predecessor, Rufus Seth Williams, guilty of prosecutorial misconduct. When the judge clearly did, and stated so in open court.
