I could not care less that Cortland County District Attorney Mark Suben performed in porn movies decades ago ("Prosecutor admits acting in porn films in 1970s," Nov. 17). The serious problem is his willingness to lie about it — repeatedly.
I am sure when he was a law school student, and later a professor, he encountered the Latin phrase, "falsus in unum, falsus in omnibus."
The principle is that if someone lies about one thing, a jury may assume everything else that person says is a lie.
If that concept doesn't apply to the top law enforcement official in Cortland County, how can anyone ever be confident that he follows the laws protecting defendants' and victims' rights?
Mr. Suben should resign.
