What a remarkable reception this afternoon for Carlos J. Martinez, our first elected Hispanic Public Defender in United States history. From pumping gas at an Exxon station to Miami-Dade College and on to law school and more.
Great idea to hold it at the Freedom Tower, where Carlos and his parents first arrived to find freedom and opportunity in this country.
A moving invocation from former APD and now-Reverend Frank Philip. Beautiful comments and testimonials from Senator Frederica Wilson and Frank Angones.
Wherever you stand on Brummer, Carlos etc., it was hard to not get swept up in all the positive energy and good will filling the room.
Carlos, we are proud of you and know you will do the best anyone can under these trying circumstances.
And remember, when times get tough, take solace in our new taxpayer-financed Marlins Stadium -- those few thousand who show up (and Dave Samson) are really going to enjoy themselves.
