Peter Lucas of the Lowell Sun has an interesting piece on the Stanley McGee mess. (Thanks to MassterList for flagging it). This is the key line in Lucas’s piece, to me:
The commission attitude, as judged from the minutes of its May 1 meeting, was: It did not really matter, you see, because McGee is a Harvard Law School graduate, a Rhodes Scholar, a brilliant attorney who also has the governor’s ear.
That explains the lack of curiosity among state officials about what happened in Florida?
I thought that maybe after Catholic priests and football coaches we’d give less deference to the status of the accused and more scrutiny to the accusation.
