Corner Attorney

There has been a lot of controversy surrounding ACORN especially after this video.  I don’t think anyone was surprised that they found that they didn’t do anything wrong.  If I am ever pulled over for speeding, I’ll tell the police officer I will look into the matter and publish my findings.  No need for a ticket just yet.

People are waking up and change will be coming.

ACORN Did Nothing Illegal, Independent Probe Finds

The Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now (ACORN) doesn’t show a pattern of intentional and illegal behavior in undercover videos that conservatives shot of ACORN staffers. That’s according to an independent, two-month review of ACORN released Monday.

Scott Harshbarger, senior counsel at Proskauer and former Massachusetts attorney general, created the findings of the report. The independent review is the result of two months of research and interviews by Harshbarger and lawyer Amy Crafts working in Proskauer’s Boston, Washington and New York offices. It shows the independent analysis requested by ACORN on September 21 in the wake of the video controversies, significant negative news coverage and lost support among some funders, allies and supporters.   –more
