In theory--as long as the person in question is always busy, working their tail off for the money, then yes. If a person just went in to flip burgers 40 hours per week, no they would not be a hustler. But if they were digging ditches by day, flipping burgers by night, selling their used items on...

Hustle, in slang, refers to anytime you are working extra hard for money. Examples are side hustle (second job) and single mom hustle (you're the sole breadwinner). It's become pretty mainstream slang and certainly doesn't have to mean anything illegal. People who drive for ride-sharing services...

What a complex and interesting woman. I really hope she's ok; it seems like there might be some very intense grief going there about her murdered partner. Her baby needs his/her mama to come home.

He's had nothing but time to practice and hone his act in prison. I'm certain he was totally sure he could pull off the deception this time. Nice try, Chris :rolleyes:

OMG YES. And at the top of a few FB groups to boot!

I have to agree with that. I wonder if his real hope was that he could keep his beautiful family AND his kinky little side piece going for as long as possible and when he began to become paranoid that it was all crashing down, that's when his narcissistic rage kicked in and he committed the...

Not jaded, realistic. It's a tale as old as time, even enshrined on Broadway: Remember in the musical Chicago, first opened in 1975, based on a play from 1926, when slick lawyer Billy Flynn (whom I once saw played by John O'Hurley :p divine!) dresses up paramour-murdering barfly Roxie as a...

Yes, I very much hope CB's attorney and Baby K's guardian ad litem have done their due diligence in thoroughly searching for any potential statements that Baby K's paternal family "may" have made on social media and the like disparaging the poor baby's murdered mother. Were they to find such a...

Well played! :D

You would, but you'd also be shocked how few rights DV victims still have and how many their perps do. I work the DV field. I was just doing research for work (because some of us are working very hard to change all that) last night and read the following facts in a scholarly article about what...

I know from experience that many judges in Colorado do take into account things like one parent (or in this case, guardian) being unable to "encourage affection" toward the other parent. What's the name of CB's lawyer? ;)

I agree. I don't think Cripple Creek/Victor is a viable area. It's all private property, most of the area where the old mine shafts are is owned by the currently operational HUGE mining corporation, and even the smaller private property owners in that area are very vigilant about trespassers...

Holy smokes! I had no idea we had a DOBBY thread on here! We live exactly one mile from the Denver Zoo, and Dobby is my kindergartener's absolute favorite animal in the world. She thinks about him and wonders how he's doing in between zoo trips; it's adorable!

Everyone, especially locals, help me brainstorm this one. A branch of my family is from Teller County and I spent a good part of my youth hiking around there, but I haven't been there except driving through for years. Based on that, and internet research, here's my speculation on mines. Please...

Custody can still be a motive for people who don't especially adore or even like their children. 1. They don't want to pay child support. 2. They view the children as their rightful "property." (Which, sadly, was the law until the early 20th c.) 3. They want to punish the caregiving parent by...

You are far more generous than I. I totally think she was his human shield against the press.

Happy tears among the sad right now thinking of CB getting to finally snuggle her granddaughter.

It's amazing, isn't it? That is always how this happens. Tale as old as time. And yet each time, there are folks doing Olympic-worthy mental gymnastics trying to "understand" what the victim did wrong to make that nice boy "snap" and kill her.
