The Sun Does Not Rise at the Nightfall of Freedom
Perhaps Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor will now have the latitude to do what Judge Sotomayor declined to do: free an innocent man. Sixteen years of a man's life for a rape and murder he did not commit.
Sixteen years because of cowardly judges, including Sonia Sotomayor.
Then again, as Associate Justice Antonin Scalia once put it, "mere factual innocence" is insufficient not to put a man to death.
Or, as appellate Judge Sotomayor put it, "excusable neglect" that a clerk of courts misinformed the wrongly convicted man's attorney, which caused a filing to miss a new, Git-Tuff-on-Crime appeal deadline by four days.
"Empathy," my ass.
"Liberal," my ass.
And one more thing:
"Change," my ass.
Welcome to dusk; the daylight is behind you.
