<center>Who Is Really Joseph Kerekes’ Lawyer?</center>
The Judge in The Bryan Kocis Murder Trial denied Attorney Demetrius Fannick’s request to represent Harlow Cuadra. Fannick had met with Joseph Kerekes several times and appeared to be on his way to representing Kerekes when Fannick turned around and filed a request to represent Cuadra.
Formal Attorney of Record is clearly just a legal designation, it doesn’t prevent a person from having “other legal advisers”. The fact that one set of attorneys were formally designated as Harlow Cuadra’s and Joseph Kerekes’ attorneys of record for their murder trials didn’t prevent Cuadra and Kerekes from having other legal advisers. Given this, the question must be asked:
Who Is Really Joseph Kerekes’ Lawyer?
I’m sure Joseph Kerekes and Harlow Cuadra were / are aware that the so-called Conflict Counsels assigned to represent them by The Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas are attorneys who were picked by Judges Michael Conahan and Mark Ciavarella and they are attorneys who are being paid by The Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas. Most important to note is that Judge Mark Ciavarella recently decided to appoint new conflict counsel to Luzerne County’s pool of Conflict Counsels apparently without advertising the positions, without seeking competitive bids and without any “oversight” from The Luzerne County Board of Supervisors. Do I have to spell this out for you?
If Judge Mark Ciavarella is picking conflict counsels to add to The Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas roster of conflict counsels without having to advertise the positions and without public competitive bids from lawyers seeking the position, then it must be assumed that the lawyers who Ciavarella APPOINT to the Conflict Counsel Pool must be lawyers who have some “prior association” with Ciavarella … How the fuck else would Ciavarella even know the lawyers to appoint them to the Conflict Counsel Pool … since Ciavarella apparently did not advertise the job vacancies?.
In effect, the so-called Conflict Counsels for Luzerne County are not only employees of Judge Mark Ciavarella, the lawyers in the Conflict Counsel Pool OWE their jobs to Ciavarella since the Conflict Counsels Apparently did not compete with anyone to get assigned to the Conflict Counsel Pool.
Since I don’t think that Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes are stupid enough to put their lives totally in the hands of Mark Ciavarella’s “friends”, it is very possible that both Cuadra and Kerekes have (and have always had) unofficial lawyers / legal advisers.
One person has even suggested to us that THIS BLOG is being used as Cuadra’s and Kerekes’ unofficial legal adviser, since this person claims that he is mailing copies of our posts to Cuadra.
Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes – The Love Story and The Agenda
FIRST, let me just point out that Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes remained together as a couple even though both of them clearly had every opportunity to have sexual relationships with other people. In addition, from all available evidence (at least all evidence available to me), Cuadra and Kerekes remain a couple and they continue to pursue agendas that are to both their benefits even though they haven’t seen each other in about two years.
SECOND, think of all the bullshit and maneuvering The Luzerne County DA went through to get one trial for Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerkes. The fact that Joseph Kerekes plead guilty BEFORE TRIAL effectively severed Cuadra’s trial from Kerekes’ “trial”. The Luzerne County DA obviously thought there was something to be gained from having one trial for Cuadra and Kerekes. Well, whatever there was to be gained from one trial for Cuadra and Kerekes has now been lost.
The Classic Defense Strategy when there is more than one defendant is for one defendant to blame the crime on the other defendant(s). Since Joseph Kerekes had already plead guilty, how can that not make it easier for Harlow Cuadra to blame the crime on Joseph Kerekes?
Frankly, I don’t see how anyone with a fucking brain can’t see that by pleading guilty, Joseph Kerekes has done something that COULD BE pursuant to an agenda that benefits BOTH him and Cuadra. Namely, Kerekes has ( a ) severed his “trial” from Cuadra’s trial; ( b ) Kerekes has made it easier for Cuadra to blame the crime on him (Kerekes); AND, most importantly, since Cuadra now has new private lawyers; ( c ) Kerekes has put Cuadra in a pretty damn good position to argue / prove prosecutorial miconduct at trial and to get the Luzerne County DA removed as prosecutor.
If you are going to get a “conviction” overturned, I think the hardest “type of conviction” to get overturned is a jury verdict. From what I’ve read, Appeals Courts will affirm a conviction from a Jury Verdict even if there was misconduct on the part of the prosecution. So, Joseph Kerekes could just be gambling that it will be easier to get his guilty PLEA thrown out than it would be to get a guilty verdict from a jury over-turned – something which seems pretty fucking sane to me.
The fact is that if Harlow Cuadra’s lawyers argue that The Luzerne County DA’s past association with Bryan Kocis REQUIRED that The Luzerne County DA recuse itself from The Bryan Kocis Murder Investigation AND Trial, Then, The Luzerne County DA might just be required to tear up Joseph Kerekes’ guilty plea, because of the DA’s conflict of interest issues.
I’ve said this before and I will say it again, The Only Thing Keeping Those Fucking Idiots in The Luzerne County DA’s Office on The Bryan Kocis Murder Trial / Investigation is the fact that No Attorney has yet had the Balls to Point out that The Luzerne County DA’s past history With Brian Kocis REQUIRES That The Luzerne County DA recuse itself from The Bryan Kocis Murder Trial / Investigation … How the fuck can A DA prosecute someone for Murder when it is possible to argue that The Fucking DA’s Office had a fucking motive to want the victim dead? THIS IS FUCKING INSANE!
An Alternate Theory of the Crime has Bryan Kocis being murdered so that Kocis could not testify in a federal probe into how Kocis’ 2002 guilty plea was “corrected” four years later in 2006. THE PARTIES to correcting Kocis’ 2002 guilty plea in 2006 were Judge Michael Conahan, The Luzerne County DA’ Office and Attorney Al Flora, Jr.
The simple fact of the matter is that The Luzerne County DA SHOULD HAVE recused itself from The Bryan Kocis Murder Investigation AND Trial because of The Luzerne County DA’s past history with Kocis..
