Harrisburg activist to post "angel" at Justice Melvin's office

HARRISBURG -- A Harrisburg political gadfly is putting up a 15-foot-tall statue of an "angel lady" here Tuesday because of recent news stories that state Supreme Court Justice Joan Orie Melvin and two of her sisters sought guidance from a Philadelphia woman who claims to hear whispered advice from angels.

The story, first reported by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette last week, said "the Orie sisters consulted with an angel lady when they wanted to know the future of the charges against them,'' said citizen/protestor Gene Stilp. The statue will be erected in front of the state's new Judicial Center, just down the street from the Capitol, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

"The message the 15-foot angel is telling Judge Orie Melvin is to resign immediately," said Mr. Stilp, who is known for colorful protests against state officials. He got considerable publicity in 2005-06 when he toted a large inflated pink pig around the state to protest the later-rescinded pay raise that state legislators tried to give themselves, as well as the pay raise that justices upheld for themselves and other judges.
. . . . . . . .
"While the angel lady is free to predict the future," Mr. Stilp said, "the three Orie sisters are in their own cauldron and have some real criminal problems boiling over. A non-psychic judge just held Sen. Jane and Janine over for trial, while Justice Joan Orie Melvin is the subject of a grand jury investigation."

The 3 Orie sisters are (1)an ultra-conservative GOP state supreme court justice who will be the swing vote on the gerrymandered reapportionment boundaries, (2)the third ranking GOP Senator in the State Senate; and (3)an office manager/campaign manager for the other two. The Ories are known locally for their tacky hairstyles & Joker-like makeup (they look like Dolly Parton, rode hard and put away wet) and their Sarah Palin level of vindictiveness. The guidance they sought from the psychic was to predict the outcome of grand jury investigations. They basically had the Phillie psycho - oh, I mean psychic on speed dial.

I believe that anyone who's had a case in front of Judge/Justice Orie/Melvin, has got grounds for appeal on the chance she consulted a psychic about any phase of their trial or sentencing.

3. Thanks for posting the picture

I don't know how to do that, but it so nicely illustrates my descriptive comments about them. It would be cheap to make a made-for-TV movie about them, because the same actress could play all the sisters. Just get four tacky wigs in different colors. We do have some excellent hair salons in Pittsburgh/Allegheny County, although you'd never know it looking at these babes.
