It has been said that a good prosecutor can get a grand jury to indict a turnip, so it is premature to convict solely on the basis of a grand jury indictment.
It is important to understand that no defense is presented to the grand jury. Their charge is to determine whether there is a basis for trial. They neither try nor convict.
The governor will have his time in court which is when guilt or innocence is decided. The legislature is not dependent on the governor in performing our duties, so other than the obvious distraction, the legislature should function normally – bills will be submitted, heard in committees and debated in the respective chambers.
The governor has garnered a phenomenal group of staff and department heads who are proven leaders in their own right, and I am confident they will continue to manage government services competently and without interruption pending full resolution of the indictment.

What Missouri gets for electing a turnip?
A turnip governor under indictment.
Wait a minute. I thought it was a ham sandwich. I'm so confused!
To paraphrase Huey Long, "You ain't going to turn Missouri into no God Damned Turnip Patch." So indict the turnips and lock them away in a dark root cellar and that includes the Governor.
Randy,
Do you get permission for every picture you take?
Maybe you should be indicted ( for political motivation)?

Harvey, Emery's looks like a studio portrait of a politician. Others look like mug shots. Some posters even choose to include their own, including you and Randy. The 1st Amendment is a wonderful thing!
Can you indict someone for posting their own picture on here for being ugly in public?
Harvey there is something you should know. Your blog comments serve as a constant reminder that Tanghipahoa Parish produces some of the finest fruits and nuts in all of 'Murrica.
Randy,
Your dialect writing is amusing, while you mock and make fun of us Deplorables

@7:56 SPOT ON!!!
Harvey, what in the heck are you talking about? The only things I wrote on this post are the headline and From Sen. Ed Emery, R-Lamar and neither of those were written in dialect. Everything else was Ed Emery's column without a change in the words. Now, of course, from my point of view, the thing that Ed Emery write are deplorable, but I do not edit his words or leave any of them out.
I'm not claiming to be a certified wingnut whisperer hasn't Hervey accused Randy of being the author of anonymous comments posted here which he didn't like?
Another possibility is distortions in the force field caused by fluctuations in the strange radiation.
I thought about calling him but I'd need to order some extra string for my tin can and wasn't there something about the NRA is boycotting FedEX?
