Richard Sprague To Defend Fumo, Gentleman Jim Corbett
![]() |
Unfortunately, Sprague didn't even let Fumo talk. But he did give a fun, 75-minute press conference of his own. Among the highlights:
- Quoth Sprague: "Ask yourself: What is to prevent someone who is devoted, dedicated to their boss, Vince Fumo, to knock themselves out and, beyond their Senate time, do activities that make his time more efficient and make him more effective as a state senator?"
- Quoth him again: "How do you make headlines as a prosecutor? I know all the tricks of the trade... . When you have a weak case, throw in the kitchen sink. Throw everything you possibly can in the indictment. Maybe something will stick." Later, Sprague compared the indictment for the Unabomber (8 pages) with that of Fumo (272 pages).
- And once more: "Hopefully, they are... using the FBI to get Osama bin Laden and not Vince Fumo, but what I am saying is that they, from on high, do have a policy of using local U.S. attorneys to try to get effective Democrats." Vince Fumo, State Senator from Pennsylvania, thorn in the side of the national GOP.
- Sprague said he intended to fight this charge using Queensbury rules. To those of you who aren't 81-year-olds, Queensbury rules are old-timey boxing rules originally published in 1867.

Please view this Website, thefixersprague.com this is the Law Firm representing
Senator Fumo. I have 30 years of Court Documented Proof that
Attorney Richard A. Sprague of Sprague&Sprague is involved in Racketeering.And PUT HIMSELF ABOVE THE LAW TO FIX A CASE HE KNEW HE COULD’NT WIN LEGALLY!!!!!! Richard A. Sprague subverted, perverted, and contorted the Law of the Land to FIX a case for clients who were being investigated by the F.B.I. and the U.S. Attorney.
And his client Robert J. Rosenstein aka R/S Financial Corporation of Philadelphia,
Who never had a Banking License in Pennsylvania, who is the Father of
Rod J. Rosenstein U.S. Attorney of Maryland, with this Political Connection, you have free reign as a CRIMINAL, When Rod J. Rosenstein was hired by theU.S. Department of Justice, the investigations against his Father Robert J. Rosenstein mysteriously ceased.
Please view on the Website the cover-up between the Schuylkill County Courthouse,
Prothonotary’s office and Sprague’s Office with a lost Opinion, Peter J. Symons Jr, head of the Prothonotary’s office signs statement stating, lost/misplaced Opinion and called Pa. Supreme Court to Fax a copy. Well, an Intellius Report was done and the fax number turned Out to be a landline in Sprague’s Office, not a dedicated fax line, this number must be THE DIRTY DEEDS LINE.Also please view the Forensic Document Examiner’s Report Of all the altered dockets in the Prothonotary’s office in Schuylkill County, Pa. Also, view the West Law report on the not signed certiorari from the United States Supreme Court. Fake Court documents are being submitted from the clerk of
Courts office to (Thomson West Law and Nexis Lexis, They do not require that opinions, decisions , or any documents pertaining to court cases be certified from the courts
That forward said cases to verify authenticity.

In thefixersprague.com is just some of the Proof I have, I couldn’t fit 30 long dirty years
On my website, Richard A. Sprague was a previous President Judge of the Judicial Conduct Board of Discipline in Pennsylvania (over ethics, GOD HELP US ALL).

Sprague Law Firm Threatens Blog:
Anthony Kovalchick Senior says…Richard A. Sprague, Please sue me so that I can get Justice and the Media and the Public can view the Criminal Conduct and how you fix cases!!!
The Sprague Law Firm is threatening to sue pennsylvaniaprogressive.typepad.com for blogs that Anthony Kovalchick Senior has posted, please view this under May archives and scroll down.

Mr. Morgan, the Kovalchick family is very sorry that Thomas E. Groshens of Sprague & Sprague bullied you and is trying to infringe on your rights as a blogger. As you can see, taking away the civil rights of the American people are the tactics of the Sprague & Sprague firm.
In rebuttal to Thomas, E. Groshens email:
The information on thefixersprague.com and blogs is all-TRUE. Richard A. Sprague and the entire firm of Sprague & Sprague are trying to do some damage control. However, the truth is the truth, so when it is out there for the public to view, it is detrimental to their reputation as officers of the court. The truth hurts!
Now let us cut to the chase:
Richard A. Sprague has quite the reputation as a libel suite king. He has sued numerous people and the media. He was defending himself in claims that he was not guilty of jury tampering. He also did not like the ABA Journal describing him as “perhaps the most powerful lawyer-cum fixer” in Pennsylvania.
See: www.klinespecter.com/news_sprague_m2m.html
If Richard A. Sprague says, he and his firm are being defamed by Anthony Kovalchick, Senior – WHY IS HE NOT SUING HIM? Why does Richard A. Sprague beat around the bush by harassing bloggers, internet providers, and web hosts? My website has been shut down twice and blogs have been deleted. I had to move my site out of the COUNTRY to get some justice. This last attempt to shutdown my website has failed, so now he is harassing my internet provider.
Statement of Anthony Kovalchick, Senior to Richard A. Sprague:
Time is of the essence. I am 86 years old and you are I believe 81 years old. I saw you on your news conference and you look in bad shape. So start the lawsuit for defamation against me and bring it on! The only two times my family had a jury trial when you represented Robert J. Rosenstein, father of U.S. Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein of Maryland, WE WON! All I want before I leave this earth is a jury of twelve honest law-abiding citizens to view my proof and hear my sorrow. I am assuming you might not have enough attorneys since your firm; Sprague & Sprague is so busy with the Senator Vincent Fumo scandal that implicates numerous attorneys from your firm as criminal coconspirators.
See: United States District Court Eastern District of Pennsylvania - Case Number 2:06-cr-00319-WY-3
Remember, I have 30 painful years of court-documented proof. I also have all the proof of the bank fraud and insurance fraud the firm of Sprague & Sprague perpetrated in Pottsville, PA.
I want justice for my late wife Helen, who suffered a stroke that resulted in brain damage at the hands of Robert J. Rosenstein and you, Richard A. Sprague. As a result of the brain damage she suffered, she wandered about the town of Tamaqua in her nightgown not knowing who she was or where she was going. The police and neighbors would bring her back to her home. I also want justice for the 30 years of pain my entire family suffered because of a scam artist with political connections.
