The most psycho state is Connecticut, followed by California.  Eight of the 10 most psychopathic states voted for Hillary. ...

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — On West Virginia Day, federal investigators announced the indictment of the man who wrote the book on political corruption in the Mountain State.

Supreme Court Justice Allen Loughry was indicted on 22 counts, U.S. Attorney Mike Stuart announced this morning. Stuart said that if Loughry were convicted on each of the counts, the sentence would amount to almost 400 years.

Loughry was picked up by federal officials at 7:30 a.m. today at his home. He had a short arraignment hearing at the federal courthouse and was released $10,000 bond.

He was charged by a federal grand jury. The 22-count indictment was unsealed today. The charges include fraud, false statement and witness tampering offenses.  ... Full story

Loughry ran as a Republican. He wrote a book about just how corrupt the political system in WV had become.

This is why I support the non-partisan appointment of judges. A previous Republican member of the WV Supreme Court also was a jerk. Jerkdom knows no party loyalty!
