"'Heckler' Judge at Mukasey Dinner Speaks to the Law Blog"

"'Heckler' Judge at Mukasey Dinner Speaks to the Law Blog": Amir Efrati has this post today at WSJ.com's "Law Blog."

Since I linked earlier this morning to an article headlined "State justice says he wasn't at Mukasey's speech" published today in The Olympian, several "How Appealing" readers have emailed me to reiterate their belief, based on having attended the speech, that the heckler was indeed Washington State Supreme Court Justice Richard B. Sanders.

The Olympian article contains, in quotations attributed to Justice Sanders, no direct refutation of the charge that he was the heckler. And contrary to the text and headline of The Olympian article, Justice Sanders in his interview with WSJ.com's "Law Blog" admits to having attended Mukasey's Federalist Society speech and to having departed in the midst of that speech. Witnesses to the event have described that the heckler left the speech after having made the "tyrant" remark to Mukasey.
