Veteran Philadelphia reporter
Ralph Cipriano offers a piece at bigtrial.net on the actions of elected, but
not yet sworn in, Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, a far leftist
elected with massive cash donations generated by George Soros and Philadelphia’s
dominant Democratic Party machine.
Attention Philadelphia: your
newly-elected District Attorney, Progressive Larry Krasner, is already getting
started on his new job, but it may not be a good thing.
According to a Nov. 29th mass
email sent out to hundreds of employees in the D.A.'s office, Krasner sought
and was granted permission by interim D.A. Kelley Hodge to have his transition
team review the personnel files of those hundreds of employees, presumably to
help decide who's going and who's staying in a
Krasner administration. The review, according to the mass email, was
supposed to be conducted last week, but one union official, FOP President John
McNesby, said he did not believe that any of the reviews had actually been done
yet.
That may be because of an
ongoing ethical problem. Krasner, a longtime civil rights lawyer who's sued the
city's police department 75 times, and provided pro-bono representation for the
likes of ACT UP, Black Lives Matter, and Occupy Philly, isn't officially the
D.A. yet, and he won't be until he's sworn in on Jan. 2nd.
Krasner, who could not be
reached for comment, apparently has tasked a lawyer from the firm that he is
now of counsel to, Patricia Pierce of Greenblatt, Pierce, Funt & Flores, to
help review those personnel files at the D.A.'s office. Krasner also has been
seen visiting the D.A.'s office at Penn Square a few times, along with members
of his transition team, who supposedly have been given office space by the
interim D.A. The reaction among some employees at the D.A.'s office has been
paranoia.
"People were freaking
out," said one source familiar with the process. "I think everybody's
worried about being fired."
