Friday shall prove to be interesting.  Former San Bernardino County Assessor will be back in court regarding the appointment of the Public Defender’s Office to handle his defense.  There is a little bit of a problem with Doreen Boxer’s office handling the Postmus defense.  You see, Bill was one of many county officials who were present when Doreen and Mike had their little fling at the City/County Conference in Lake Arrowhead.  Postmus had to discuss Doreen’s indiscretion with her.  Now her office could be ordered to defend him.  Can you say conflict of interest?

Let’s see what Judge Michael Dest does.  If the matter was before Judge Duke Rouse, Postmus would be in deep do-do as Judge Rouse is showing himself to be the friend of District Attorney Mike Ramos we never knew about until revelations of his personal and financial relationship with the firm handling the Ramos’ sexual harassment claim came to light.  I have to think Judge Dest is being a bit more careful and will determine there is a conflict.
