The Senate should be questioning Amy Coney Barrett's husband, since he's going to have to approve her rulings.

2. He's an attorney who bills himself as practicing "criminal defense."

Well, i checked out his cases...and guess what!

His criminal defense cases were for corporations and businessmen who were charged with crimes that hurt the little people. He brags how he won for them.

Am I shocked? No, but I am sickened.

3. Good find!

The OP was in jest, but damn...this guy sounds almost as bad as his wife.

4. I totally agree.

I was VERY interested about HOW Barrett's husband could be a "criminal defense" attorney as I had read. I am a retired atty and my law partner was a major criminal defense atty with published opinions. He also was a card carrying member of the ACLU, life-long liberal Dem.

Sooooooo, i just had to find out about the husband. IMO, he is a corporate crook enabler...at best!
