David Kravetz, Esq. is a Smart Lawyer!

December 6, 2011 at 1:20 P.M. Developments in New Jersey will require additional essays examining legal and political corruption in the Garden State.
Kibret Marcos, "Attorney Says Scam Left Him Deep in Debt: Lawsuit Highlights Potential Risks of Investing in 'Life Settlements,'" in The Record, November 28, 2011, at p. A-1.
"Gerald Kapilof," a scam artist protected (for years) in New Jersey with connections in the banking industry, was behind a number of insurance scams targeting "naive" lawyers, like David Kravitz, Esq., of Cliffside Park, New Jersey -- a town previously famous for a global prostitution ring serving the "needs" of former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer. ("New Jersey's Prostitution Ring and New York's 'Pay-For-Luv-Guv.'")
" ... what made the whole scheme possible, according to [a] lawsuit, was a dubious loan approved by a T.D. Bank official in Ramsey, who provided the financing with FULL KNOWLEDGE that the money was going to be spent on a high-risk bet that was peddled as a low-risk investment." (emphasis added!)
Sounds like the Wall Street bankers before the credit "bubble" burst. ("Law and Ethics in the Soprano State" and "Cement is Gold" then "Corrupt Law Firms, Senator Bob, and New Jersey Ethics.")
I wonder whether Senator Menendez benefitted, secretly, from real estate deals involving the "twins" as brokers in Union City? Did Mr. Garcia have "friends" in banks helping with his shady deals? I wonder how my old friend Ramon Gonzales, Esq. is doing these days? Was Mr. Gonzales "fronting" for North Bergen officials when he was meeting, secretly, with clients from my former office? Or was Mr. Gonzales doing favors for "Senator Bob"? Is all of this conduct from members of the New Jersey Bar Association "ethical"? Do you speak to me of "ethics," gentlemen? ("Jay Romano and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey" and "New Jersey's Politically Connected Lawyers On the Tit.")
Debbie Poritz is -- or was -- a "friend," allegedly, of Mr. Kravitz, who is said to be a former member of the Bergen County Ethics Committee, although recent financial pressures may raise doubts about his trust account -- or they would if Mr. Kravitz were a minority group member. ("New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics.")
Mr. Kravitz, a lawyer for many years and a man in his seventies, is reportedly "naive" and was tricked by a con artist out of $400,000. ("Deborah T. Poritz and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey" and "New Jersey's Feces-Covered Supreme Court" then "New Jersey's Judges Disgrace America.")
I wonder whether Debbie Poritz was "scammed" by Diana Lisa Riccioli out of money (or favors) when the two women were lovers, allegedly? When do I get the torture files, Stuart Rabner? ("Stuart Rabner and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey" and "No More Cover-Ups and Lies, Chief Justice Rabner!")
Mr. Rabner, my matter cannot be swept under the rug any longer.

Crimes by OAE officials and others must be examined by federal and other non-New Jersey law enforcement officials. To the extent that New Jersey's legal system is genuinely concerned with the ethics of attorneys and judges, some effort must be made, promptly, to right a great wrong. Time is of the essence.
There must be some members of New Jersey's legal profession with the remnants of conscience that would allow for honesty and decency in acknowledging what I have described as well as established to be their foul and repellent system so as to make necessary amends. ("Terry Tuchin, Diana Lisa Riccioli, and New Jersey's Agency of Torture" and "Psychological Torture in the American Legal System" then "Abuse and Exploitation of Women in New Jersey's Legal System.")
Members of the African-American community urge state officials to "get tough on crime." ("America's Holocaust" and "Give Us Free!" then "Stuart Rabner's Selective Sense of Justice.")

(I thought the U.S. said, offically and on the record, that these killings were a "mistake"? If so, then how could a "mistake" be a deliberate "defensive " move? Is it possible that the U.S. government is lying? New Jersey's government always lies, but until now the federal government is usually careful about its facts.)
John H. Cushman, Jr., "Condolences From Obama Over Deaths In Pakistan," in The New York Times, December 5, 2011, at p. A8. (No apology only "condolences" because President Obama does not wish to give the Republicans an issue, regardless of the humanitarian considerations for an apology, thus pleasing no one. If there is no U.S. fault involved or military "error," why express condolences for a "defensive act" in war time?)

This right to confrontation is crucial for victims of experts' incompetence: "An Open Letter to My Torturers in New Jersey, Terry Tuchin and Diana Lisa Riccioli" and "Terry Tuchin, Diana Lisa Riccioli, and New Jersey's Agency of Torture."
