Brizzi offers his assistance to the new prosecutor. I sense that is one offer of help that any sane person would decline immediately.

What's strange is that Curry already released a statement 2-3 weeks ago saying he'll re-look at the Bisard case and re-file the DUI charges if he finds the evidence fitting.

This press conference was a show. Nothing more, nothing less.

I believe the victims families sincerity; I just question the way their attorneys interjected the issue into a political race. There is a lot of money on the line for taxpayers as a result of Bisard's actions, and Curry wants to be the county's top lawyer. When you consider as Massa pointed out, the plaintiffs attorneys have supported Curry's campaign financially, it gives the appearance he is selling off the office for political favors before he's even been elected.

I am sure that Mr. and Mrs. Wells, the parents of Eric, who died as a result, were also present at the press conference, and I am sure that they and, since a police officer seems to have been given special privileges that resulted in the dropping of the felony alcohol-related charges, the vast majority of the public were very gratified by Terry Curry's bravery in standing up for justice in this case. I very much agree that it could be considered unseemly for him to have the victims' attorneys for their civil complaints against the city present at the press conference, but I do believe Mr. Wells when he has repeatedly told the public, and once to me personally, that his law suits and strong protests about the murder of his son, are an effort to help improve police behavior and relations.

So, no, I did not see his press conference as a Gloria Allred moment, but since some saw otherwise, I would advise Terry to exclude the victims' private attorneys, next time. P.S. I hope Curry is elected!
