In practice, there are different levels of probation, and the PO has some judgment. I personally know of a case in Florida where a person served probation in another county; they just mailed in the cost of supervision and documented their community service, et al. So it is possible KC can...

If KC has any advisors worth anything, this will never happen. Get the cases settled, the judgments entered, and then declare bankruptcy and poof! They go away. KC won't have to even do that. Let's say Tim Miller sues her for $112k. All her lawyer has to do is say "tim, you can get your...

Geragos an geragos wanna-be JB make their money from the media circus that follows these high profile trials. The newsworthy nature of the case enables MG and those like him to charge huge advisory fees and make paid appearances. He is a legal profession celebrity with no real scholarly...

No. Caylee should be alive. Alive is better than dead until you're very very old and incapable of caring for yourself. There is no silver lining or lesson to learn. Caylee's death is pure evil and cannot be rationalized by some "she's better off sentiment". As soon as we reach for that, we...

I've never used a kindle...so help me here. Couldn't one, in theory, download a book, and then upload to a website somewhere, making the book available at no cost?

If she really wanted to speak and be heard, she can just put it online for free. Such a move might gather her some sympathy. (you reading this, Jose?) Edit: while the kindle thing is probably a fake, the writing is kind of childish (though much marketing language is) and the writer is dumb...

BBM if they don't shop it around now, KC will probably just steal it, along with the camera used to film the footage, the fridge where the beers were, and possibly the plane itself. Such footage isn't worth big money IMO. ABC paid $200k for miscellaneous Caylee items; that's when Caylee...

Interesting way to categorize it... both sides were able to get a real-time read of public opinion...which certainly informed their strategies and led to mid course corrections. This tends to favor the defense since the state has to present evidence. I do believe it has a place in the...

I am not sure I agree. 100 years? For a homicide? Implausible, imo. World War 1 was 100 years ago, roughly, and few people today could discuss the root causes or discuss the major players, battles and resolution. As far as I can see it, the only way this case is discussed meaningfully...

That's a great comment about how Cindy aged 20 years since this started. She has; the toll on her must really be something. It's an emotional impact hard to fathom; just the facts of it are staggering: 1 - her granddaughter, who she definitely loved, is dead 2 - her daughter, who she...

I think you nailed it.

I seem to recall similar shenanigans in the OJ trial. Judge Ito would levy small fines against OJ's team, and that was just that. However - re: the part I bolded - Something fishy happened. as more facts emerge, the fish get stinkier.

I think the Judge is being pragmatic. As for the "speak as a group" angle, I find it hard to believe that there is something truly fishy going on. (Interestingly, I was at the rosen shingle creek the same time the jurors were, for a biz function - just a tangent there. it's a nice place...

I've made several posts to that effect. Seems like the DT is starting to figure them out; it's not rocket science. Hi JB ;) Just kidding. The tea leaves with regard to KC are easy to read. Don't make the mistake of assuming very high intelligence on JB's part. he just got really...

Geraldo's ultimate boss is under enough pressure (Murdoch, that is) facing calls from his board to split the Chairman and CEO jobs. It'd be hard to imagine him green-lighting a KC interview (and yes I think the public outcry would be such that it would rise to the level of a chairman; it's...
