Colorado's federal trial court on Thursday disbarred an attorney who spoke favorably about the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, called for former Vice President Mike Pence to be subjected to firing squads and claimed he had evidence of fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
Back in reality, he was being investigated for his unhinged statements and other complaints with the potential for disbarment in Georgia, and asked the bar there to “retire” his license. They close the investigations and said sure, and you can’t practice law here or anywhere else. Colorado is following the practice of their federal courts, that he’s not allowed to practice law in CO as he’s not in good standing in other jurisdictions.
It’s weird how lawyers have such excellent systems of cooperation for this kind of stuff while cops can just move a 20 minute drive away and nobody knows anything about them.
Law is adversarial. You have someone on the other side trying to jam you up, just looking for things to throw in front of you. Police don’t have that.
