    OJ Simpson dead at 76, after short battle with prostate cancer

    if you want to read a great book about the OJ Simpson trial, read Outrage: the Five Reasons OJ Simpson got Away With Murder, by Vincent Bugliosi. I read it when it was originally published, then bought it again to reread after Simpson’s recent death. It is an incredible analysis of what went...

    CONVICTION OVERTURNED MD - Hae Min Lee, 17, Baltimore, 13 Jan 1999 #2

    After I read this post, I first listened to The Prosecutors Legal Brief Series. Because they are prosecutors, I thought that gave them some credibility. At times I found them rather arrogant, “trust us, we’re prosecutors”, and I did not care for their treatment of Asia McLain. I thought they...

    Casey Anthony: Where The Truth Lies (Peacock Documentary) Discussion

    I just binge watched this so-called documentary last night. I found myself getting a bit sucked in by it. I was glad to come to Websleuths to ground myself back in reality. It was especially helpful to watch the Body Language panel analysis of CA in the doc, as well as that of the Behavioral...

    VA VA - Jennifer Pandos, 15, Williamsburg, 10 Feb 1987

    I believe the handwriting was inconclusive with respect to Tony.

    VA VA - Jennifer Pandos, 15, Williamsburg, 10 Feb 1987

    Further spoiler alert: Also - when the police investigators called the mother, why did they have to call her multiple times, and she would not call them back? In fact, instead of calling them back, why did she email her by then ex-husband telling him the police were calling? This has all the...

    VA VA - Jennifer Pandos, 15, Williamsburg, 10 Feb 1987

    I just finished watching this. Spoilers ahead: I think Steven was too quick to accept the new direction, pointing at Tony. Points I still need to understand: why did the parents go to work, act normal for 3 days before reporting her missing? why did the dad almost confess, then retract, then...

    Deceased/Not Found Canada - Lyle, 78, & Marie McCann, 77, Alberta, 5 July 2010 #2 *T. Vader guilty*

    Yes it is absurd. But it only says he'd be eligible to apply, one can hope he'd be denied. His record for staying out of trouble when free is not good. And he has a history of drug abuse. To allow him unescorted freedom would give him far too much opportunity to re-offend or abuse drugs. I hope...

    Still Missing Canada - Alvin, 66, & Kathy Liknes, 53, Nathan O'Brien, 5, Calgary, 30 Jun 2014 *Guilty* *Appeal* #29

    Well, in fairness, if we are to feel sympathy/empathy/compassion for DG because of whatever mental health issues he might have, or whatever life circumstances shaped him into a triple murderer, I believe it's only fair we give these 4 the same benefit of the doubt. We have not walked a mile in...

    Still Missing Canada - Alvin, 66, & Kathy Liknes, 53, Nathan O'Brien, 5, Calgary, 30 Jun 2014 *Guilty* *Appeal* #29

    I think it's important to put this in perspective. A guy who committed the most heinous, notorious crime in recent memory goes to remand. It is reported that 4 people in remand assaulted him and he received soft tissue injuries. I personally would be surprised if no one attempted to kick his...

    Thank you! If I smirked a little when I heard that DG took a beating, that didn't make me a a triple murderer. Nor did it cause the beating. Nor did it encourage the beating. Nor is the world going to go to hell in a hand basket cuz I smirked. <modsnip> Imho Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Anything is possible with DG. Maybe he instigated a beating so he could go to the hospital. Not that it absolves the 4 dudes for the assault. I hope it's all on video so LE gets to the bottom of it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Still Missing Canada - Alvin, 66, & Kathy Liknes, 53, Nathan O'Brien, 5, Calgary, 30 Jun 2014 *Guilty* *Appeal* #29

    Thank you. I see your point. True, some have elevated these assailants to hero status. But even elevating them to hero status in this instance is just more "feelings". It's not a pronouncement that they now "have a right" - feelings don't change the law and bestow new rights on inmates to...

    Still Missing Canada - Alvin, 66, & Kathy Liknes, 53, Nathan O'Brien, 5, Calgary, 30 Jun 2014 *Guilty* *Appeal* #29

    If you felt a shiver of satisfaction when you heard about DG's beating, don't feel guilty about it. No one can tell you how to feel. It's just that, a feeling. It has been a long, sad, shocking trial, and so much suffering has come about due to DG's depraved actions. We don't have to feel...

    Still Missing Canada - Alvin, 66, & Kathy Liknes, 53, Nathan O'Brien, 5, Calgary, 30 Jun 2014 *Guilty* *Appeal* #29

    <modsnip> There is a great difference between people on the spectrum and people like MdeG who was found NCR. MOO. If there was any basis for a NCR defence, I'm sure DG's very capable and experienced legal team would have explored that option. His condition, whatever it is (never made public)...

    Still Missing Canada - Alvin, 66, & Kathy Liknes, 53, Nathan O'Brien, 5, Calgary, 30 Jun 2014 *Guilty* *Appeal* #29

    I personally believe there is a vast difference between MdeG's mental illness and DG's. MdeG was found NCR, DG was not. Many people deal with varying degrees of mental illness, and live normal productive lives, without killing 5 year old boys and their grandparents. Sent from my iPad using...
