I'm getting the impression it's not easy to disbar somebody and takes *forever*.
Which is probably a good thing as you're taking away somebody's livelihood, but I agree it seems like it's taken too long in this rather obviously deserving case.
My honest assumption was that a core rationale behind professional accreditation for lawyers, doctors, engineers etc. was precisely that it is important to prevent them from using their positions to do harm, so you need a more responsive body to remove them from their work than the legal system
A huge part of the reason i hate cops as an institution is that they either drag their feet or flat out refuse to allow any cop to come to any level of accountability for misconduct.
