It isn't over till...

This week the San Bernardino County Sentinel ran a full re-run of the Miller case and its possible implications for Cortes & Ferre. Ferre credited John Harper for her feeling of assurance she has done no wrong and will not face charges of conflict of interest, "I have a written legal opinion from the city attorney".

This is same City Attorney that gave bad advise to Jim Miller, and on countless contract reviews and court cases. It may be more personal when he gets yet another "Opinion" wrong and his client Mayor Ferre and Council Member Cortes are charged for Conflict of Interest.

Cortes & Ferre didn't sign letter/petition supporting Miller, fearing the wrath of the DA's Office. Knowing they are in similar situations they dare not irritate the DA who is known to press charges against former political allies if and when he has no further use of them.
