Kerik's Trial Postponed

2009_10_kerikja.jpg CityRoom reports, "The federal corruption trial of Bernard B. Kerik, New York’s former police commissioner, which was supposed to begin Monday, has been indefinitely postponed, according to a court document. There was no reason given in the document, which was filed Friday in the United States District Court in White Plains. No new date has been set." Our guess: The judge wants Kerik to have more time to think while in jail.

Shameful to see a man with the stature of Bernard Kerik in jail. There is a personal vandetta against this man who is far from a perfect human as we all are.

I hope good comes of this in the sense that Kerik gets to see the prison system from the inside out and will gain more experience in his future endeavors. I am hopeful that Kerik's trial will proceed as soon as possible and he will be released.
