The blogger has just viewed CASH FOR KIDS, an excellent documentary revealing the corruption in the courts of Luzerne County, PA, which is markedly similar to the corruption in the Medina County courts. This is an excellent flick, well worth the viewing. The blogger highly recommends that regular readers of this blog to take the time to view KIDS FOR CASH.
A thumbnail sketch of the scandal of public corruption found in the courts of Luzerne County, PA, not at all dissimilar to the corruption to be found in the Medina County courts, can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kids_for_cash_scandal .
In brief, two POS judges in Luzerne County sentenced juvenile "offenders" to long terms of incarceration in a privately operated juvenile correctional facility in Luzerne County in exchange for enormous amounts of money they received in the form of kickbacks in exchange for keeping the private facility "full."
The two corrupt judges, Michael Conahan and Mark Ciavarella, received millions of dollars in kickbacks that they laundered through a series of bank accounts.
Something very similar has, and is, occurring in Medina County. According to an informed source, both Corrupt Medina County prosecutor DINO HOEMAN and illegitimate Medina judge LAPDOG "PUBLIUS" COLLIER appear to have played pivotal roles in the scheme, which is said to also involve a number of their cronies at the Medina County Bar and Pickpocket Association.
According to the informed source, a substantial amount of money and property, allegedly amounting to several million dollars, just disappeared, resulting as well in the concealment of a substantial amount of tax owed to the State of Ohio. That tax loss, effectively a fraud upon the State of Ohio Department of Taxation, is alleged to implicate COUNTY AUDITOR MIKE KOVACK, as well.
The corrupt Luzerne judges, Conahan and Ciavarella, were charged by Federal prosecutors with a plethora of criminal violations, including fraud, theft, money laundering, and racketeering. Sounds like Medina County, doesn't it?
Former disgraced judge Conahan pled guilty and was sentenced to 17 and 1/2 years in prison.
Former disgraced judge Ciavarella decided to take his chances, maintained his innocence in the face of overwhelming evidence of his culpability, and went to trial. Ciavarella was found guilty and was sentenced to 28 years in the Federal penitentiary.
These are probative facts that HOEMAN and COLLIER need to think about as the house of cards begins to fall, a process already in progress.
