Exactly! Thank you, Doctor!
These camps are just a way for parents to hire a third party to commit child abuse. IMHO, obviously.
(Please note: I'm saying "abuse" is the end result, not the intention of the parents. I do know what it is like to be at one's wits' end as a parent, and my heart...
Like it or not, courts have ruled time and again that the remedy for an illegal search may be a dismissal of the indictment.
Not that any judge will be in a hurry to free a possible 4-time murderer on a technicality, but THAT is the hope when AT is challenging how LE focussed on BK. Barring a...
With rare exceptions, the officers of the court (prosecutor, defense attorney, judge) do NOT consider independent knowledge of the crime, victims, crime scene, etc., a positive.
The system is set up so that the info given to jurors is carefully controlled.
Thank you. Some posts here--as well as accounts in MSM, I believe--say driveway, some say street.
If you are sure, I will happily take your word. I recognize your "hat" and that you have been very active in this thread.
At my house, we rarely open the front shutters to look at street traffic...
The neighbors may have had a better view of the driveway.
I can't see my driveway from my house, except through a window in the master bedroom where the shutters are never opened. There's nothing to see out there but our car and lots of concrete. Maybe we'd look out that one window if the car...
Another football fan here (though maybe not as rabid as your crowd). I can't recall EVER watching a game in more than one location; why would I miss a quarter or more driving from TV set to TV set?
Like you, I think that sentence was just bad writing, and meant that the five men at JW's house...
I can understand their concern, but the case principals (judge, DA and DP) know right now whether a tour of the crime scene will be allowed.
Some posters here seem to think it's merely up to the jury to request a crime-scene visit, but I don't believe it works that way. What is and what is not...
It was a private rental, but the owners donated the house to UI after the murders.
So UI (with direction from the Court) controls the property a present.
I think you are right. But if an appellate court orders a new trial, then a new jury will have just as much need to see the murder house as the original jury.
So the point remains: if we don't trust the current judge, DA and PD to decide the house is no longer needed, when WILL a Court be...
What a great point! In this day and age, why don't cruise ships have all the railings under surveillance?
Or maybe they do: I know nothing about commercial cruises.
So you want a murder defendant (who usually doesn't get bail) to sit in jail for years while his/her appeal winds through the higher courts (perhaps including SCOTUS)? Meanwhile, his/her witnesses may be forgetting, relocating or even dying?
I don't believe your proposal will be as efficient as...
Marine conditions vary widely from place to place, season to season and even according to the time of day.
I don't think it's "stupid" to believe JVDS' confession may be accurate, though I agree that just because he said it doesn't make it true.
Would you really be happier if the government were allowed to rewrite the legal code to fit the unique circumstances of every case? Can we even imagine the abuse of power that would ensue?
We in the USA have lost patience with statutes of limitations for murder. But without our racial divide I...
As we see from the events in the headlines every day, our justice system does NOT move quickly! We're going to have another presidential election before we finish litigating the last one!
But I doubt that anybody sat and counted work-hours over a 13-year period. You may be right, of course, but...
As I posted above, I grew up in Florida (Ft. Lauderdale).
It was the shallowest shores that had the strongest undertows. See Hollywood (FL) or Hallandale, I can't recall which it was. (I moved out of Florida almost a half-century ago.) I loved that beach for body surfing because the strong...
I would like to add a hearty "Thank YOU' to Tricia and the Moderators for their policy against bashing the victims (including survivors) of true crime.
Back in the day (18 years ago), there was a lot of hostility toward Natalee's mother in these threads.
Maybe she did roar through Aruba like a...
Oh, come on. There's no reason to believe Aruban authorities covered up on behalf of PVDS! That island has to be sensitive about its international reputation for the safety of visitors.
They arrested Joran twice and Paulus once. IIRC they tried to keep them longer, but were overruled by a Dutch...
