I know, I know, it's almost beyond crony-cozy-crooked incredible.
But considering that it's probably been about 10 years since DA Jim Martin staggered into a courtroom, he had to get somebody to defend him on Friday who sort of knows what he's doing.
So who does DA Jim Martin get? Get this ... he gets the co-founder (Malcolm Gross) of the law firm (Gross McGinley) that tomorrow's judge (Carol McGinley) also co-founded. Yep. Read that again.
Lehigh County "Democrat" (wink wink) Malcolm J. Gross is a member of the fundraising Host Committee to Reelect Republican DA Jim Martin.
Malcolm J. Gross also delivered a testimonial from the witness stand for homicidal drunk driver Robert LaBarre (Robert LaBarre killed my daughter Sheena) at LaBarre's sentencing that was conveniently never mentioned by The Morning Call "newspaper" (too messy, career-wise, sorry Don.)
Perpetually un-challenged DA Jim Martin doesn't even bother trying to make Friday's court outcome appear legitimate.
That's our DA (for now) Jim Martin.

Maybe The Morning Call should look into this ... ;D
Villas, I've seen "somebody" come from much farther behind and win BIG. Just sayin'.
True. Related Story ...
Jim's playing right into your hands. Let him.
I agree.This is bold face, all caps arrogance that won;t go unnoticed by the voters come November 8.
We're confident The Morning Call will be all over this ... ;D
Requiring 'Gentleman' Jim Martin to be in court the morning after St. Patrick's Day is cruel and unusual (hiccup) punishment, just sayin'.
DA Martin must be very worried indeed if he went out and hired Allentown's most powerfully connected hired gun to get him off.
Q. Is this a Lehigh County taxpayer expense?
Doug, that's an excellent question that deserves to be answered.
Ditto an array of DA Jim Martin campaign contribution disbursement questions that smell real bad. These excellent questions will be surfacing soon.
Our district's top attorney can't defend himself against an allegedly "frivolous" challenge? Speaks volumes.
Touché. ;D
LVS EDITORIAL
In the opinion of LVS, Lehigh County Court of Common Pleas Judge Edward D. Reibman compliantly aided and abetted DA Jim Martin and St. Luke's Hospital when he handed down this shameful ruling.
Per DA Jim Martin's and St. Luke's Hospital's wishes, Judge Reibman's unimaginative and uncaring ruling blocked families who had had relatives die at St. Luke's Hospital under nurse Charles Cullen's "watch" from having any access to DA Jim Martin's Charles Cullen interview notes. Incredibly, after a lengthy interview w/ Cullen and an "investigation," DA Jim Martin, curiously, could not find any reason to charge Pennsylvania's most prolific serial killer Charles Cullen with any crimes in Lehigh County. And by blocking grieving victim families from "connecting the dots" on the deaths of their relatives and St. Luke's nurse/serial killer Charles Cullen, St. Luke's Hospital was likely able to evade legal accountability for their negligence in employing nurse/murderer Charles Cullen and millions of dollars in compensatory and punitive damages.
In our opinion, this was a calculated and callous "F.U." to grief-stricken crime victims by St. Luke's Hospital, DA Jim Martin, and Judge Reibman.
DA Jim Martin is up for reelection in November. Vote for Ed Koren.
Judge Edward D. Reibman is up for retention this November. On the ballot you will see a question asking whether Judge Reibman should be retained.
Vote "No."
Readers, not surprisingly, the IP address spotted stalking LVS most obsessively/compulsively these days is "LehighCounty.org" and these folks would of course include DA Jim Martin, "Executive Aide" (wink wink) Debbie Garlicki, DA Jim Martin shield/sycophant/notary Merrily Starkey, Detective Dennis Steckel, and Chief Deputy DA Dog Renee Smith among others (e.g., Judges Steinberg and Reibman).
