This guy is a flaming idiot. I didn't think it could get worse than Jensen...but it did. He's a racist. He's a dictatorial narcissistic caveman. He doesn't like the law?? He makes his own or just dismisses the action. He plays favorite to his "good old boy" friends and their families and only got the job because Jensen was such a crooked nitwit. Hogan you double fkd upon this one

He has many flaws, but the most serious is his racism. He represents the past when it comes to that issue and is an incredibly serious down grade to Karen Murphy-Jenson, who was one of the best Judges in our state. Best of luck to anyone who is representing anyone who isn't white before him.

This guy tripped and fell into this job. If he weren't so far up the collective asses of the mid shore GOP, he wouldn't even be a footnote in our county's history. Shame on our otherwise wonderful Governor Hogan for appointing him.
