Not that I want to be a spoilsport on all the fun, but this article does seem to be a little unfair.
The court records try to have some anonymity for the bar applicant, which is why they use the initials. Even though Baez is a disliked public figure, he's not running for political office. He's just trying to do his job. This does seem like an uncalled for character assasination from the Sentinel.
Just like you all, I too dislike Baez. But now, I think I dislike the Sentinel even more for making me feel sorry for him!
With that said... there is one tidbit in the article that I think is a legitimate concern:
"Additionally, the Board found that J.A.B.'s misrepresentations and lack of candor in his answers to the specifications and during his formal hearing testimony were further grounds for disqualification," the Supreme Court wrote.
I have not had the good fortune to go before a character and fitness review board (yet) but I hear that if you are just open and honest, and show that you've overcome, or are taking steps to overcome whatever they're concerned about, that you will probably pass. The above quote shows that JB's insolence, and lack of respect for the court is nothing new, and will not improve at trial. This is good news for those who want KC convicted because the jury will notice it and despise him for it.
