In response to “Court Craziness” which ran in the June 6 issue of North Country This Week, unfortunately you are correct in your allegations and accusations. It's like the right to a speedy trial; pure lies from the beginning. We are the laughing stock of the country and have the most corrupt and criminal political leaders running the legal system here, from the governor right down to the county level and even a lot of lower elected officials. Until people get smart enough to vote those idiots out of office and find respectable replacements for them it won't end. Even in local politics, the only politician I can honestly support at this time is Patty Ritchie. So far there is no one else I am ready to vote for.
