He abandoned his public service job to be with his lover, lied about it and now the folks in SC have voted him back in office again. Unbelieveable that his past actions didn't convince people he was not fit for puplic office. :banghead:

Rielle Hunter, the former mistress of John Edwards and the mother of their 4-year-old daughter, has written what the publisher promise to be a revealing memoir hitting the shelves later this month. http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20600520,00.html My first thought when I saw her...

She was very talented and very troubled. May she now find peace.

I understand what you are saying. But, I do not believe that just because a system has been in place for hundreds of years it cannot be improved upon. Casey's jury is used as an example because it has prompted so many to question the current system. Guilty or innocent, I believe it...

Sure they can but what about if they don't think they need a question answered? What if they think they are following the judge's instructions correctly but in reality (like many believe happened in the Anthony trial) they have it wrong? A facilitator would be a court employee whose job it...

I would like to see someone (a jury proctor or facilitator) be present in all deliberations to ensure the jurors understand and follow the instructions given in a case. The facilitator would not deliberate the case, but would step in when/if the jurors got off track. For example, suppose the...

She does need to have her ears pinned back.

Alleged is right. Never have understood how anyone could think she is pretty or goodlooking. I don't find her attractive at all.

How classy. Not! :rolleyes:

I wonder if Linda will give a statement.

He is a class act all the way. That was the first time I have seen him on TV. (I watched the trial on my computer.) I thought he was nice looking then but after seeing him today, just WOW!! A very handsome man. I wish him well in his retirement and am glad that he gave it his all for...

I could not read him at all.

She need not get too cocky about it all. She may have gotten away with murder in a court of law, but in the court of public opinion she is guilty. Wherever she goes in life, this will follow her just like OJ. She will be whispered about and shunned. She will be fodder for late night tv...

In addition to being sick over the verdict, I find it absolutely maddening that nothing can be done about it. Nothing. No matter what anyone thinks, the verdict stands. No matter how many jurors may change their minds after hearing more of the evidence, the verdict stands. No matter how...
