The DA's efforts to shield elites from accountability in Senator Goodwater's case is disgusting. It doesn't matter if you're from the streets or a politician in the Senate, the law applies to everyone - equal justice under law. The GOP should adopt a new motto: "Rules for thee, not for me." A party which preaches that they're hard on crime, who pass harsher sentences into law and yet when one of their own is caught doing something they shouldn't, they use their power and influence to try and avoid a felony charge.

Both the GOP and the DA's office should be ashamed of themselves and I commend Commissioner Massenburg for not allowing them to so easily get away with this.
