Virginia Judge Kicks Soros Prosecutor Off Case for Concealing Criminal Records
https://freebeacon.com/courts/virginia-judge-kicks-soros-prosecutor-off-case-for-concealing-criminal-records/ (https://freebeacon.com/courts/virginia-judge-kicks-soros-prosecutor-off-case-for-concealing-criminal-records/)
Loudoun County circuit court judge James Plowman said the office of Commonwealth's Attorney Buta Biberaj (D.) was "deliberately misleading the Court and the public" about "a possible 12 burglary crime spree spanning 4 counties over 10 days." In a plea agreement, Biberaj's office failed to note the offender had recently pleaded guilty to felonies and had pending charges and prior convictions as a minor, according to Plowman. Fox 5 on Saturday first reported on the judge's order to remove Biberaj from the case.
"The Commonwealth is deliberately misleading the Court, and the public, in an effort to ‘sell’ the plea agreement for some reason that has yet to be explained," Plowman wrote in his order.
...
Biberaj's office charged the burglar, Kevin Enrique Valle, with two felonies in Loudoun last year but, according to Plowman, Valle had also been arrested for burglaries in three other Virginia counties in May 2021—one of which occurred the same day as the Loudoun burglary. Deputy Commonwealth's Attorney Michele Burton had not noted the other burglaries in the plea agreement. Plowman called the plea deal "an overt misrepresentation by omission."
"The explanation highlights a lack of knowledge of the facts of the case or the ability to apply basic legal principals," Plowman wrote in his order. "Biberaj and the Loudoun County Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office is hereby REMOVED AND DISQUALIFIED from further prosecution as counsel of record in this matter." He has authorized the Fauquier County commonwealth’s attorney’s office to take up the case.

Could the judge have gone further?
Could he have removed Biberaj from his position (of prosecutor) completely, for egregious misconduct including the failure to exercise his basic responsibilities and duties...?

‘Removed and Disqualified’: Soros-Funded Loudoun County Prosecutor Removed from Criminal Case
BRECCAN F. THIES | 19 Jun 2022
Loudoun County, Virginia, prosecutor Buta Biberaj — a George Soros-funded leftist — in an extraordinarily rare move was removed from a criminal case by a judge for “deliberately misleading the Court and the public” in an attempt to “sell” a plea deal.
Biberaj is also under fire from Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares (R), who said she “care[s ] more about criminals” than communities.
Loudoun County Circuit Court Judge James Plowman, who was Biberaj’s predecessor, handed down an order removing Biberaj and her entire office from the case and has appointed the Fauquier County Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office to serve as the prosecuting team instead.
“The Commonwealth is deliberately misleading the Court, and the public, in an effort to ‘sell’ the plea agreement for some reason that has yet to be explained,” Plowman wrote. “Biberaj and the Loudoun County Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office is hereby REMOVED AND DISQUALIFIED from further prosecution as counsel of record in this matter.”
Fox 5 D.C. reports the judge’s decision was one that “some seasoned attorneys and prosecutors say they have never seen in their career.” . .

Good for this judge.

This is the sort of thing it will take to expose and neuter the Soros prosecutors.
