Lacy said the reason her office took over the case in 2002 was that the Ramsey family had no confidence in the police. ``It wasn't that they were incompetent,'' she said of the officers.
But this is the same lady that said the LE was being to rough on PR and didn't support the LE just like Hunter....
CORRECTAMUNDO! I talk about this at length, in fact. If someone could tell me just how often a case is taken from police because the prime suspects don't like the way the evidence points, I'd be really grateful. But I can't imagine it happens too often.
Allow me to present an excerpt:
How did an utter moron like Mary Lacy ever get into the kind of position she's in? Well, in 2002, Lin Wood, the Ramseys' attorney, threatened to sue the police department if they didn't turn over the case to the DA's office, when he knew full well that Mary Lacy was sympathetic to his clients. What kind of sleazy backroom deal is THAT?! I've never even heard of such a thing: a suspect's lawyer deciding who can and cannot investigate a homicide case? I'm not a legal expert, so I don't know if that could be constituted obstruction of justice, or collusion, or not, but it damn well ought to be a disbarring offense. As far as I know, it may be legal, but it can't be ethical.
