Ira Einhorn

[edit]

Is it not worthy of mention that Mr. Specter was instrumental in getting Ira Einhorn, the "unicorn killer," released on bail (which he skipped) shortly before taking his Senate seat? 72.94.101.34 (talk) 23:49, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, I was also wondering about that. Although it ought to also point out that he was serving as Einhorns attorney at the time, and wasn't something he did just "for the hell of it". I notice that on "Conservadepia" that they phrase it almost exactly like you did, but with an added insinuation that he used his political clout to get a buddies bail knocked down a bunch. Zero mention of the fact that he was serving as his attorney at the time, and that he was doing what an attorney is supposed to do...act on his clients behalf and in his clients best interests..45Colt 19:24, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Middle name

[edit]

Hi. I'm trying to figure out the late senator's middle name. What I've discovered so far:

The New York Times uses "Arlen J. Specter" in January 1985 here. "Arlen J. Specter" also appears as an alternate name at NNDB.

Any help on this would be appreciated. --MZMcBride (talk) 20:32, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The "J." has now returned, added a few minutes ago by 74.139.73.78 in this edit. Hmmm. --MZMcBride (talk) 23:53, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The "J." appears in this 1970 publication's index - [1]. No trace of it in public records though. – Connormah (talk) 03:08, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
