Hey, girl. I'm 6'1", mean as a snake and I have STILL been on the receiving end of violence. It may be an unpopular opinion to some, but I arm myself and believe it's my right to fight for my life. Others who do not feel that way should probably keep in mind some important facts. It is NEVER...

We refer to 9.00 pm as 'Gringo Midnight'. You'd be surprised how early things roll up here. Sounds reasonable enough to me. A friend of mine who owns a BNB here in Tronadora rolls up everything around 7.00.

I can see this. If the hotel/BNB has a service kitchen that closes at a particular hour, it makes sense.

Yeah, maybe so. I'm still a bit hung up on the owner telling cops he saw her leave at 5.30 the morning of the 28th.

Unfortunately, it depends on the news outlet. We've seen his room/her room in local news. Either way, the days that passed before the hotel was a crime scene - no one bothered to clean up? Doesn't make any sense.

Carla went missing on November 27, her room was not treated as a crime scene until December 3. It was then that investigators found blood evidence. Does it not strike you as completely bizarre that a guest room would not be cleaned for over a week after a guest's departure? Irrespective of the...

I'm quite far from Escazu, so I wouldn't know first-hand. I can tell you that power outages in Costa Rica are frequent because of weather conditions. We're now in a 'windy' season, so we experience them often. That she mentions the power going out wasn't a notable item to me. Hope that helps.

Hello from Costa Rica and apologies for not yet reading the entire thread. Here is all that is known this morning. The suspect in custody is Bismark Joseil Espinosa Martinez. He is Nicaraguan with 'irregular' migration status in Costa Rica. That means refugee and not worker's status. He was...

A writ of habeas corpus is a command upon the courts to 'produce the body'. Show your evidence. That writ was granted and the federal judge overturned Brendan's conviction, further ordering the state to retry within 90 days. Which is pretty unlikely.

Detective Dave Remiker and fellow Manitowoc County Sheriff's deputy Melia Prange broke department rules while the jury was sequestered at Brendan Dassey's April 2007 jury trial, USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin has learned. While the trial was in progress, Remiker received a one-page reprimand...

That's one of the biggest problems with this system of justice. Most people try to avoid jury duty altogether, or get out as quickly as possible. It can be taxing on your work like and personal life, but it's such an important thing to do, if you're called upon. It can mean the difference...

She's trolling Kratz pretty good. Or whoever she believes planted false evidence. Send them in one direction while you work in the other. I like this woman. :guitar:

Yup. Just housings for the bolts that hold the seat build together.

It can take a while to develop a case and clear one's calendar. Whatever her motivation, if the truth is finally reached and justice is finally done, I'm in her crew. Whichever way it goes.

That... was... interesting indeed. No mention of how suggestible people with developmental or cognitive disabilities might be. I would suspect their natural defenses against suggestion might likewise be compromised. Thanks for the link to the article.
