as soon as rudy drops out of race, bernie will take a plea.

Mr. Russo, I hope that will NOT come to fruition. I believe Mr. Giuliani is the best representative for this country and Mr. Kerik is equally suitable. Nobody's perfect. Mr. Kerik has overcome many hard knocks in his lifetime. That should not be forgotten.

bernie kerik...va va va voommmmm

hard knocks
with Judith Regan right
at the apartment
in the middle of the night
hahaha

Voice,
Say it ain't so.....

All I can say is that working in Government generates quite a few brown nosers.. Bernie SUCKED up to RUDY so much that he should have quit while he was ahead... He should have left PD and went to the security company that he formed with Rudy.. But GREED got the best of him..!!!

The fact is, a simple review of various public court records and newspaper reports clearly raise questions as to why and how this case has gotten this far.
Judge Robinson has already bought the prosecution’s argument in a prior prosecution motion in which Jacobson successfully removed Kerik’s former lawyer from representing him. There, Jacobson stated that Kerik’s attorney could be a witness to a conversation between another one of Kerik’s former attorneys and an attorney from the DOI. That attorney is Walter Arsenault - the same lawyer that ordered Caruso to lie under oath.
I doubt that Jacobson informed Judge Robinson that Arsenault was accused by the DOI Assistant Commissioner and Inspector General of suborning perjury before the state Grand Jury. That raises another question – how are Arsenault and Gil-Hearn still conducting investigations for the City? They themselves have committed a felony and should at minimum be disbarred for suborning perjury.
Mr. Jacobson’s attempts to embarrass and criminalize Kerik in front of Judge Robinson and a courtroom full of reporters, was preposterous - summarizing the charges against Kerik as a “crime spree.” If Kerik was on a “crime spree,” as suggested by the prosecutor, then he should be seeking an indictment of our new Treasury Secretary and Larchmont resident, Timothy Geithner. But alas, the prosecution of Kerik was a political act, and it would be impolitic to indict President Obama’s personal pick for Treasury Secretary. Not so Bernard Kerik.
The solution here is to dismiss the case against Kerik on the merits. Defense counsel, Barry Berke demonstrated in oral argument why the counts charging Kerik with deprivation of honest services are time-barred, and the claims that Kerik lied in response to a question in the application to be Homeland Secretary submitted to the White House as to whether Kerik had ever done anything that “embarrassed him,” as vague, and likewise should be dismissed. As the Judge noted during the oral argument of the defense motion, the question as to whether a person has ever been embarrassed is “more rhetorical” than anything else. Kerik of course withdrew his nomination in any case and the government could not say it relied upon the application.
As for the tax counts in the Kerik indictment, the resolution is simple. Treat Kerik the same way anyone else with the same mistakes or errors would be treated and have Mr. Geithner’s IRS handle those issues civilly in the ordinary course.
This case demonstrates why the law is ill equipped to adjudicate “political” matters and why cases such as this poorly conceived attempt to criminalize conduct on purely partisan grounds is improper. Clearly Judge Robinson recognizes the problems in the government’s indictment and I am confident that he will strike the stale, improvidently conceived criminal claims.
