As reported in The Morning Call "newspaper" on November 18, 2010, Merrily Starkey has been DA Jim Martin's assistant for "more than a decade" (touchingly, DA Jim "choked up" when thanking Starkey).
Q. How "impartial" could Merrily Starkey have been in ensuring the validity of DA Martin's ballot petitions, considering that her continued employment depends on DA Martin's reelection?
That's the question Lehigh County President Judge Carol K. McGinley will be charged w/ deciding this Friday.
* See today's coverage by The Express-Times.
FYI, Judge Carol McGinley is a founding partner in the influential Lehigh County law firm, Gross McGinley (formerly Gross McGinley LaBarre & Eaton) whose clients include The Morning Call "newspaper."
Current Gross McGinley principal/partner and prominent (for now) Lehigh County "Democrat" (wink wink) Malcolm J. Gross is a member of the fundraising Host Committee, Committee to Elect (Republican) DA Jim Martin, as was announced on the invitation for a Wednesday, March 3, 2011, $250 per person fundraiser for DA Martin attended by Governor Tom Corbett and hosted by Bill and Phyllis Grube at 3015 Barrington Lane in Allentown. Special Thanks to the Lehigh County registered voter who hand-delivered hard copy to my house today.
Gross McGinley principal/partner Malcolm J. Gross also attended the sentencing hearing for Robert LaBarre (Robert LaBarre killed my daughter Sheena) and publicly pledged his unwavering and unequivocal support for Robert and Don LaBarre. Personally, I'll never forget the pleasant "thud" sound of Mal Gross's slack jaw hitting the floor when Judge Steinberg announced Bobby LaBarre's 5.5 to 12 year state prison sentence but I digress.
Such a small (and crony cozy) world around here, eh?

Wow. Now there's a bombshell on a candidate for office that no one saw coming, and may turn Lehigh County on its head.
Not surprisingly, there's much much more to this story that The Morning Call isn't reporting.
Stay tuned to LVS for insider exclusive coverage.
Bet Martin is throwing up. You're climbing in the Google rankings (LVS Martin posts) keep the "game on."
(Thanks, will do).
LVS EDITORIAL
Readers, 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 Merrily Starkey, Detective Dennis Steckel, and Chief Deputy DA Dog Renee Smith among others (e.g., Judge Steinberg).

LVS's 2nd most frequent stalker is Lehigh County Democratic Committee "man" from Trexlertown, Chris Casey.

Hey John, sadly, everyone knows you've run for the hills wearing wet panties on this issue, but (due diligence on my part at least) any word on your "investigation" (wink wink) into Tom Corbett, DA Jim Martin collusion?

A Very Special Thanks
... to the civic-minded Lehigh County registered voter who hand-delivered to my house a few moments ago hard copy of the fundraiser invitation that lists and reveals "Democrat" (wink wink) Malcolm J. Gross, Esq. as a DA Jim Martin campaign contributor and a member of DA Jim Martin's reelection campaign Host Committee.
Yowza.
Obviously, DA Martin and his pal Mal are good pals, agreed?
Now, just hypothetically speaking, of course ...
let's say a pal of Mal's son, say, brutally killed somebody (and somebody not as "important" as he) driving drunk.
Would it be 'cRaZy' to logically deduce that power- wielding DA Jimbo might wanna help out his pal Mal?
Oh you decide ...

Irregardless of Judge McGinley's ruling on Friday (and how impartial can SHE be? just saying), the trifecta of news coverage today (MC, 69, ET) has informed the electorate about the ways of Jim Martin.
Jim's got to go. It's "high" (hiccup) time.
Well said.
Yes, definitely a swell news day.
I just hope the satellite news broadcast trucks don't tie up Hamilton Street around 5th on Friday morning too severely and that they all bring their wide angle lens.
