Dear General Petraeus:

Dear Ridiculously Uncoordinated Law Enforcement Agencies of...
Cleveland, Cuyahoga, Ohio, Etc., Beware:
I have a self-imposed rule that I will not discuss a pending legal matter on this blog. Until now. This is the one that deserves immediate attention.
I Beg for Justice and Mercy for the poor in the Poverty Capital of America, as my father did before he died of a liquor soaked broken heart.
Today, I found myself celebrating the suffering of martyrs on this fine All Saint's Day in the quiet courtroom of The Honorable Angela Stokes. My first client, who shall remain anonymous for the time being, finds herself held in Cleveland, capable of beginning drug and mental health counseling immediately, but unable to do so because of several outstanding municipal and county (State) warrants from Franklin County and Columbus Municipal Court. These are felony and misdemeanor warrants, probation failures after placement in Drug Court.
When I learned that the only plan available to get this lady from Cleveland to Columbus was a heretofore unpurchased one way Greyhound ticket, BECAUSE CUYAHOGA WONT TAKE HER TO FRANKLIN AND FRANKLIN WONT COME AND GET HER IN CUYAHOGA, I new a better solution. The Ohio State Highway Patrol.
They go up and down 71 ALL FUCKING DAY! I thought before I presented the idea more eloquently to the judge. And the record will reflect that she saw the solution as "brilliant."
She reached out to the Ohio State Highway Patrol and Franklin County and City Court systems by phone, and was rebuffed by each agency in her quest to do their jobs and get this poor lady in front of the Drug Court Judge as soon as possible.
Then, I told them it was a goddam shame that this poor lady is gonna be released to the streets of Cleveland with no family, no support, no living situation, no money, and is gonna go try and make some the only way she knows how. "My name is Scott Hurley, I'll be writing letters. Writs."
So here's my writ: Please Give This Lady A Ride Down 71 Please
