So it has been a pretty busy 24hrs at BronxNet Studios. "BronxLegal with David Lesch" had a great show last night with Criminal Attorney Peter Tillem of the firm Tillem and Campbell. As promised we discussed the present state of Gun Possession Laws in NY State. A very controversial topic. Especially with the fallout following the Plexico Burress plea. This morning, on the show "Open" I concluded my four part series focusing on controversial laws everyday new yorkers must face. A few months ago the Rockefeller Drug laws were modified. Certainly controversial, these laws have been a political hot potato. Today I was able to give both sides of the debate. The host, Darren Jaime, had some interesting questions for me. Although Judges in NY now have more power in determining sentencing for non violent, first time, drug offenders, I'm sure we have not heard the last of the call for further modification of the law. Finally, immediately after "Open", I appeared on "Perspectives". The topic, the upcoming terrorist trial in lower manhattan. Talk about cotroversial. The ultimate issue: are the terrorists considered "solders" or "criminals"? Or both. We will soon find out what the Federal Judge assigned to the case thinks.
