LORD CONRAD BLACK, who was convicted of obstruction of justice and fraud, dined and sipped Cristal with a few friends, businessman Joe Fosco and attorney Robert DeMeo, at the 200 East Supper Club on Tuesday night. They called the intimate gathering a “Majority Win Victory” celebration.
Black talked about his two favorite politicos, former Presidents Richard Nixon and Franklin Delano Roosevelt, both of whom he has authored books on. He also reportedly said that he thinks U.S. District Judge Amy St. Eve is an excellent judge. He also said “he loves our city and the architecture and sees the similarity of Chicago and my hometown of Toronto, but Toronto is not as big.” Black also promises to “remain committed in his pursuit of full vindication.”

First, it’s a bit tacky to post the same comment on multiple blog posts.

As noted on the other post, I’ve deleted the names of the people you say committed these crimes. I don’t have the time or inclination to confirm your accusations.

I have made a list of offenders from the Chicago-land area (same area, in which Conrad Black was indicted and convicted). These offenders are guilty of felonies. All have served their time and are now home. Be advised, most of the offenders have served less than half of the time that “arrogant” Conrad Black is facing.
As follows:
1) [name deleted], attempted murder of a child (served 9-years).
2) [deleted], attempted murder of a child (served 8-years).

38) [deleted], MURDER of a child (served 15-years).

Sadly, all of the offenders I have listed here, who are all now home, are convicted of additional crimes (sex-crimes); therefore, all are registered on the Illinois Sexual Predators Web Site. Please note; their sex-crimes are against children. The Illinois Sexual Predators and the Illinois Department of Corrections Web Sites are my sources for the purposes of making my list.
It is an outrage that white-collar defendants face equivalent (or longer) prison terms than child-killers (not to mention, white-collar cases, in large, are a wealth-redistribution mechanism; see Conrad Black’s recent comments in Men’s Vogue Magazine).
The offenders listed, like Conrad Black, are considered felons, the 38 offenders are widely thought of as “child killers,” and Conrad Black on the other hand, is widely thought of as “arrogant;” the one word that is most often used to describe Conrad Black. I suppose people are saying about Conrad Black,“such an arrogant person deserves more prison time than any of these 38 child-killers.” Wherefore, I have never been more conscience-stricken about being American than I am right now. Thankfully, Conrad Black and I have a religious bond.
Sincerely,
Conrad Black’s brother-in-Christ, Joseph Fosco
