Retain Monaco

In the ongoing effort to weed thru the records of the judges currently sitting on the 5th District Court of Appeals, yours truly can see no reason not to retain Chief Judge David A. Monaco.

The Delaware native earned his undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt and is a Gator law school grad. He is also a Navy veteran.

I admire his tough sentencing in one case I discovered, involving an horrific case of domestic violence. He threw the book at the perp, giving him MORE than the 25 year maximum because he was an habitual offender.

Judges like Monaco keep creeps off the street. He merits retention.
