RI Political Corruption

A Family Business

Justin Katz

Just to keep track of these things, although that's a herculean task in Rhode Island:

The brother of the state Senate Judiciary Committee chairman has been named associate jury commissioner for the Rhode Island court system.

Eugene J. McCaffrey III began his new post overseeing jury operations for the Kent, Washington, and Newport county courthouses on March 1 at an annual salary of $62,284, said Craig N. Berke, court spokesman. His father, Eugene McCaffrey, is a former Warwick mayor, and his brother is Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Michael J. McCaffrey. His sister, Mary E. McCaffrey, was named a District Court judge last year.

Shades of Magistrate Harwood - announced and sworn in the week between Christmas and New Years, when the fewest people would be paying attention. (With what did Judge Rogers get paid off for that one?)

Rhode Island's Democrats are so thoroughly corrupt that not one will even question the propriety of this. They will remain silent, just as they did during the Harwood appointment.

Meaning that every last one of them is corrupt, by being accessories if not direct participants.
