More Bad Idea Jeans: Prosecutors Dating Rastafarians

Earlier I blogged about the often-disastrous consequences that occur when white women date/marry/get involved with black or Hispanic men. My hook was a news story in which a white female prosecutor dated a black man, only to be beaten severely when the relationship was broken off.

My item couched the white female prosecutor as a possible aberration: unlike so many other white female victims, she wasn't uneducated, and as a prosecutor, certainly had a front-row seat for knowledge of the risks.

Now it's starting to look like white female prosecutors are a bigger part of the date-dangerous-black-men trend. Jennifer Mitrick, 30, apparently struck up a relationship with Michael Wilson, the victim in a shooting case she prosecutor.[Source: A.D.A. pulled from case after being romantically linked to alleged drug dealer, By Mensah M. Dean, May 20, 2011]

Wilson is described as a "Rastafarian drug dealer" from West Philadelphia via Jamaica, so it's hard to imagine he's not black. If Mitrick was working undercover, she neglected to tell anyone. According to the story:

The relationship came to light in February 2010, when law-enforcement officials - working an unrelated case - executed a search warrant of Wilson's home. They found drugs, an illegal gun and a picture of Mitrick and Wilson, sources said.

I suppose a lawyer can become attached to a witness. But a Rastafarian drug dealer? When you work as a prosecutor? Mitrick herself looks as sweet as can be, but it's always those women who seem to fall hardest for politically correct narratives that blind them to harsher realities.

A detective who blogs as "Wyatt Earp" has commenters saying she's a lefty who does yoga and graduated from Georgetown:

Interestingly, Mitrick hasn't been fired--just reassigned. In order to be fired, she would have had to say that black men are more likely to commit crime than white men--or just show up to an American Renaissance conference and speak in defense of whites.
