Alumni of Pam Bondi's Law School Threaten to Cut Off Donations If School Doesn't Denounce Her Over Epstein Hearing

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Alumni of Stetson University College of Law, where Attorney General Pam Bondi received her law degree, are threatening to cut off donations if the school refuses to denounce her for her handling of the Epstein files, specifically her performance during a recent congressional hearing.

After mounting pressure — including from his fellow Republicans — President Donald Trump signed a law last November to release the files related to deceased child sex predator Jeffrey Epstein and his girlfriend and accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell with a deadline of Dec. 19. The law required a wide release of millions of documents, photos, videos, and other files, with redactions limited to victims’ names and other identifying information.

The Department of Justice failed to meet that deadline, and since then, there have been additional releases of files that have revealed additional powerful people who were in communication with Epstein, thousands of mentions of Trump, and controversial failures to redact victims’ names and nude images. Congressional committees have continued to investigate the missed redactions, documents that have been removed from the files, and others that still have not been disclosed, issuing subpoenas to prominent people mentioned in the files and DOJ officials all the way up to Bondi.

Bondi’s testimony at a February hearing with the House Judiciary Committee was widely viewed as a disaster, drawing sharp criticism even from the right. Then, on Wednesday evening, congressional Democrats on the House Oversight Committee stormed out of a meeting with Bondi, accusing her of stonewalling them and failing to comply with the subpoena.

1. I live near that school

Our paper wrote a article year ago on that school an all the scandals from those who graduated from there

2. When will schools and bar associations start rescinding qualifications?

Ethics alone should be grounds for rescission of degrees and law licenses.

4. Not until ethics become important

Right now, state bar associations have no concern about ethics and they have made it obvious. Same for law schools.

3. Stetson?

Is that Cowboy Law?

5. It's not exactly a top tier law school.

[Tommy Carcetti]

7. It's not top tier but it is decent.

It's actually ranked above Syracuse, Rutgers, Michigan State and a few other names.

If we were to rank law schools and colleges by some of their more infamous alums, you'd be surprised.

Pete Hegseth and Ted Cruz are Princeton undergrads; Cruz is Harvard law.

8. Not sure where you got your info from.

You can't rank a law school by one or two "infamous alums", and no, I wouldn't be surprised if a legacy student who ends up at a Harvard or Yale is dumb as a rock.

I worked at a law school and Stetson was definitely not top tier, and no, they are not ranked above Michigan State.

9. US News and World Report...

…which is the most commonly cited ranking of colleges and post-graduate schools.

Stetson is 99 (essentially middle of the pack on the list). Michigan State is 115.

That all being said, school rankings can only go so far.

I’ve seen Tier 4 schools produce excellent attorneys, and Tier 1 schools produce dunces.
And no, they’re not all just legacy students.

But of course, there’s also Thomas Cooley School of Law, which is…special.

But even that has some notable alumni, and not all of them bad.

10. Have friends who graduated from Stetson. They told me they went there because

it was easier to get accepted and not as expensive as other choices.

[Tommy Carcetti]

11. Compared to the very top tier, yes.

That’s actually the case with most law schools.

Doesn’t make it a slouch school by any means.
