Unsolicited Thanksgiving Advice for Murphy Hall
Dear Murphy:
The Judge Cunningham affair is a real turkey for you.* You might want to spend your Thanksgiving weekend finding out what happened. A good place to start might be by asking why campus police would be bothering with a minor off-campus traffic infraction unrelated to UCLA.
Katehi apologizing |
It’s not a question of having jurisdiction, so let’s not get entangled with legalities of whether it was technically OK to stop the judge. It’s a question of priorities and common sense.
Remember the Pepper Spray Cop affair at UC-Davis and how the chancellor there spent months apologizing, investigating, testifying, etc.? You really don’t want anything like that affair to develop. Ask Davis Chancellor Katehi [see photo] about whether spending her time that way was something best to avoid.
Just a thought. Enjoy your holiday.
Sincerely,
Yours Truly
