Just did my regular check of the documents in the Ethics Commission case against San Francisco Sheriff Ross Mirkarim. The City Attorney has submitted two pieces of video as exhibits for tomorrow's hearing that will feature testimony from Mirkarimi's wife, Eliana Lopez. The first is Mirkarimi making light of the media attention, in his Inaugural address January 8th. The second is a short clip from an I-Team report in which the sheriff's attorney, David Waggoner, questions the credibility of next door neighbor Ivory Madison. She admits urging Lopez to make a video of a bruise and contacting police against Lopez' wishes. In the clip, Waggoner talks about the comic book Madison wrote, years before the scandal erupted.
You can see our full original report here. I've left a message with the City Attorney's Office to find out how they plan on using the clip, but have not heard back. I'll update when I do.
Lopez' attorney, Paula Canny, also requested an interpreter to be present for tomorrow's testimony. During our interview in her hometown of Caracas, Venezuela, it was apparent Lopez has a command of the English language, but sometimes is unclear about specific expressions.
I'll be attending Wednesday's Ethics Commission hearing; I'll send updates on Twitter @dannoyes.


Thank you Dan! I hope things go well tomorrow for the entire Mirkarim family.
I look forward to your updates. Mary

Thank you, you are one of the few reporters doing the job right: investigative, interviewing the witness in person all the way whatever they may be; and best of all your Journalism is not on sale for S. Fco's corrupted elite.

Dan, you are doing a superb job. I saw you last night and should have said this to you then, but everyone was trying to talk to you at that time.
What I want to know is, how come more time is not being given to the fact that Mayor Lee was the ONLY ONE evacuated from City Hall during the "bomb threat," even leaving the Day Care kids inside? This is a major story as far as I am concerned, and leans to calling Lee's credibility in question.

Good advice! I like the suggestion of telling a story. So much internet content is very bland but throwing something interesting in there that's not too long can really be a hook.

An attorney is soeomne who represents the legal interests of another by proxy. A lawyer is soeomne who practices law. A barrister is a member of the bar, i.e. an officer of the court, a litigator. A solicitor is soeomne who carries out legal negotiations and other tasks on behalf of his clients.In Canada's common-law provinces (everywhere but Quebec), the barrister/solicitor distinction is still formally recognized but the two professions have been fully merged (i.e. you can't be one and not the other). In Quebec, I understand that the term attorney has a specialized meaning (encompassing, I think, laymen with power of attorney), so it is not generally used interchangeably with lawyer in the other provinces in order to avoid confusion. In the US, of course, the terms lawyer and attorney are more or less interchangeable, with attorney having a slightly more archaic (and pretentious) ring to it. In at least some states, the formal licensing body refers to licensees as attorneys at law . I don't know when the US officially jetissonned the barrister/solicitor distinction it inherited from England; I suspect it was a gradual, state-by-state process.
