Glawker's Rubino has cow over LA Times' use of Kozinski opinion referencing disgraced toxic torts lawyer's past misconduct

 


Rubino has a lengthy Glawker post on the even lengthier  Los Angeles Times investigation of now-disgraced toxic torts lawyer Thomas Girardi, implying that Girardi's cozy relationship with Bar officials and investigators (whom Girardi lavished with parties, perks, and free legal work) allowed him to offend for decades.

But what Rubino simply cannot abide is the Times' use of "disgraced" former justice Alex Kozinski's statement that a Girardi sleight of hand in his court  was "about as serious a case of misconduct as I had ever seen.”

How dare they? I mean (sputtering) the man had cow porn on his server!

Yes, the LA Times cites disgraced former judge Alex Kozinski opining about legal ethics with ZERO sense of irony or even acknowledgement that Kozinski retired amid a sexual harassment scandal that rocked the legal world. They go further, using him as the moral authority expressing his shock when the state bar declined to impose further sanctions on Girardi:
