There's nothing wrong with that. I feel the same but at the same time I don't care whatsoever about the people like this guy who clearly did the crime. Timothy McVeigh was another one that got a sarcastic "oops, sorry about that" from me.

Nobody should be forced to be subjected to this. If somebody wanted to nope out of there, I would understand. It’s not a typical expectation to watch/listen to a snuff film.

There are alternates in every jury for reasons of illness, etc. In a big trial, there will be at least two alternates. Walking away would only cause an alternate to be empaneled, and they've been watching the trial same as the others. Speculation only, I wonder if this is stopping anyone but...

This is going to be a world record for short deliberations. I'm not a fan of the death penalty but I won't weep for this monster. I give them 1/2 hour max to come back with the verdict. They might even take a stand-up poll.

I think it's cruel to make the jury listen to that and disgusting to allow him to listen to it and probably enjoy it. The whole thing is grotesque. How about a transcript to read, with an expert testifying about what is depicted? The jury system shouldn't be designed to traumatize jurors, and...

This is pretty local to me and what's very telling is that in the comments sections I've read, not one person is calling for her to be tried and sent to prison. That's so different from almost any other case. I wonder about the mental health of the girl.

I love that policy. Unfortunately at our studio the owners and teachers got directly involved in the 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬.

As a former dance mom, sometimes the parent cliques can get extremely intense and very ugly. That wasn't so much the case with me but I know others it happened to. The feathers (and sequins) can really fly. Couple that with all the ongoing stress and the availability of the gun and it's easy to...

A double tragedy as she has now lost her husband and the boys their father, not to mention the trauma. I'm so grateful the baby has survived. A regular knife vs. a tiny baby's abdomen could so easily have been fatal.

What an awful way to die. I pray the dog was already dead via some gentle means before he paddled out.

100%, and aside from the dog being involved it’s not even that unusual in terms of the ways people disappear in or near bodies of water.

We have folding Oru kayaks. They are like origami almost and they fold into a little carrying case with a handle and weigh about 20 pounds. We love them but would NEVER take them into the ocean. Also they would not fit a big dog. I wonder if the dog went swimming and got carried out, and he...

Just reading through this thread and I feel the need to point out something that many people don't know--many suicides, especially in the young and substance-impaired, are the result of sudden impulses. That doesn't mean there wasn't a tendency toward it already, as shown by her comments and the...

If you are in your house, you have no moral right to shoot someone who isn't. Someone has keys that aren't working? Cool. Why would a burglar try keys in your door? Use some logic. Yell "Stop, who are you? Why are you here?" and maybe assume they're just at the wrong house because that is the...

HOW MANY TIMES OH MY GODDDD
