Suzio: "Another Spectacular Early Release Failure"


A MEDIA RELEASE FROM LEN SUZIO


Indicted Criminal Accomplice in Sensational Aaron Hernandez Murder Trial was Early Release Convict
Calls on Governor to fire Undersecretary Lawlor

Date: July 7, 2014

For Immediate Release:
Contact: Len Suzio (203)-530-1544


Former State Senator Len Suzio, Connecticut's leading critic of the Early Release program, revealed that Carlos Ortiz, indicted for murder in connection with the trial of former NFL superstar Aaron Hernandez, was let out prematurely under the early release program.  Hernandez is charged in the murder of Odin L. Lloyd. “This is yet another example of the spectacular failure of Undersecretary Mike Lawlor's Early Release Program”, said Suzio.



"Once again we are confronted with more dramatic evidence of the utter failure of Mike Lawlor's Early Release Program”, Suzio stated. Carlos Ortiz was indicted for the murder of Odin L. Lloyd, joining NFL star Aaron Hernandez as a defendant in the "execution style" murder of Mr. Lloyd.  Ortiz received Early Release credits accelerating his release from a Connecticut prison. “This violent criminal joins a growing list of Early Release graduates who were let go early and not rehabilitated by Mr. Lawlor's spectacularly and tragically failed program," said Suzio.

"Murder, rape, robberies, assaults and other violent crimes are being committed by unreformed, and unrepentant criminals let loose under Mike Lawlor's Early Release Law. How many murders does Governor Malloy need to be told about before he does the right thing and fires Undersecretary Lawlor, the architect of this dangerous program who continues to cover up its glaring failure?" Suzio asked.

"I will continue to use my position on the Victim Advocate Advisory Committee to challenge Undersecretary Lawlor who continues to cover up this wrong-headed and dangerous policy," concluded Suzio.

Len Suzio is a member of the Victim Advocate Advisory Committee.

Obamagod!

My guess is that Barack Obama is a bit too modest to consider himself a Christ figure , but artist will be artists. And over at “ To Wit ,” a blog run by professional blogger, journalist, radio commentator and ex-Hartford Courant religious writer Colin McEnroe, chocolateers will be chocolateers. Nice to have all this attention paid to Christ so near to Easter.

The Blumenthal Burisma Connection

Steve Hilton , a Fox News commentator who over the weekend had connected some Burisma corruption dots, had this to say about Connecticut U.S. Senator Dick Blumenthal’s association with the tangled knot of corruption in Ukraine: “We cross-referenced the Senate co-sponsors of Ed Markey's Ukraine gas bill with the list of Democrats whom Burisma lobbyist, David Leiter, routinely gave money to and found another one -- one of the most sanctimonious of them all, actually -- Sen. Richard Blumenthal."

Did Chris Murphy Engage in Private Diplomacy?

Murphy after Zarif blowup -- Getty Images Connecticut U.S. Senator Chris Murphy, up for reelection this year, had “a secret meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif during the Munich Security Conference” in February 2020, according to a posting written by Mollie Hemingway , the Editor-in-Chief of The Federalist. Was Murphy commissioned by proper authorities to participate in the meeting, or was he freelancing? If the former, there is no problem. If the latter, Murphy was courting political disaster. “Such a meeting,” Hemingway wrote at the time, “would mean Murphy had done the type of secret coordination with foreign leaders to potentially undermine the U.S. government that he accused Trump officials of doing as they prepared for Trump’s administration. In February 2017, Murphy demanded investigations of National Security Advisor Mike Flynn because he had a phone call with his counterpart-to-be in Russia. “’Any effort to undermine our nation’s foreign policy – e
