Snooze of the Century!
SATZ AWAKENS!
Washington Irving's fictional Rip Van Winkle only slept for 20 years.
But Broward State Attorney Mike Satz has been asleep on the job for way more than 30 years.
How so?
After some 35 years turning a blind eye to public corruption run wild in Broward, Satz awoke last week to hold rare press conference in support of a bill to strengthen the state's misconduct law governing public officials.
“There's no question this bill will help us convict Sunrise Mayor John Lomelo,” Satz told me following the press conference.
“But Lomelo's been dead for years,” I told the little lawyer.
“Yeh, right!” Satz snorted. “And the next thing you'll tell me is they've legalized gambling in Broward County.”
