The New York City Police Commissioner under former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, Bernard Kerik, and the first person to be tapped by Former President George W. Bush to lead the Department of Homeland Security had his bail revoked in his fraud and corruption case.

In what can only be seen as ironically typical for some policemen, Judge Robinson said, �He sees the court�s rulings as an inconvenience, something to be ignored, and an obstacle to be circumvented.�

The next time he decides to to smugly sit on Geraldo's show and pontificate about criminals, he can do so from first-hand experience!

Bernard Kerik Is Sent to Jail

By Stacey Stowe

A federal judge on Tuesday revoked bail for Bernard B. Kerik, the former New York police commissioner who is facing conspiracy and fraud charges.

Judge Stephen C. Robinson of Federal District Court in White Plains said Mr. Kerik could not be trusted to honor a consent order prohibiting him from revealing confidential information. The judge cited an email that Mr. Kerik sent to the head of his defense fund that apparently included such information.

Mr. Kerik had been allowed to remain free on $500,000 bail, which was secured by his house in New Jersey. The judge turned down a request by Mr. Kerik�s lawyers to keep him from being put behind bars for 48 hours while they prepare an appeal.

Before revoking the bail of Mr. Kerik, Judge Robinson described him as a �toxic combination of self-minded focus and arrogance, and I fear that combination leads him to believe his ends justify his means.�

�He sees the court�s rulings as an inconvenience,� Judge Robinson said, �something to be ignored, and an obstacle to be circumvented.�

After the proceeding, Mr. Kerik loosened his tie and removed papers and a wallet from his pockets. He then carefully took off a chain and medallion and handed it to one of his lawyers. He was led away, not in handcuffs, by court officers.

Jury selection in the trial is to begin Monday.

It's ironic how the government doesn't trust Americans, so this criminal was tabbed to police us. Maybe he can still get the Department of Homeland Security job when he gets out on parole. The TSA agents who steal out of people's luggage need him as a father figure.

Giuliani is a creep, so this should come as no surprise.
