This should put to rest any doubt as to who Bradley is. I hope the individuals on the inside who have the goods will have the guts to help rid WilCo and Texas Government of John Bradley once and far all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-66846367340914177922010-05-04T18:03:52.954-05:002010-05-04T18:03:52.954-05:00When Texas lawyers are licensed, they take an oath...When Texas lawyers are licensed, they take an oath to "honestly demean themselves to the practice of law." District attorneys are bound by the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure 2.01 to "see that justice is done...not suppress facts or secrete witnesses capable of establishing the innocence of the accused." Finally, all lawyers are bound by the Texas Rules of Disciplinary Conduct, which states in its preamble that a lawyers should "seek improvement of the law, the administration of justice and the quality of service rendered by the legal profession..." It has a core belief in avoiding loss of respect with the public and a desire for the highest possible degree of ethical conduct.<br /><br />John Bradley forgot the oath he took and the concepts meant to regulate his profession. He is more interested in preventing "his side" from looking bad, i.e. having made a mistake, than he is ensuring the public trust, faith in the system, and integrity of prosecution. John Bradley is a disgrace who should be suspended from the practice of law. I hope voters remember this and remove him from the post they trusted him with.<br /><br />In the interim, if Mr. Bradley refuses to complete the duties the commission require, refuses to subject himself to the oversight of the Texas Legislature, and will not address public concerns, it is time that the people get more involved. It is time that the people of this state suggest to Governor Perry that he has appointed a man incompetent to retain his position. It is time that we all demand accountability for this man.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
