The district attorney’s office said that in light of his death, it no longer would pursue the case...

Yeah, having a corpse in a chair the whole time, putting it on the stand, wasting tax dollars laying it in a cell for 10 years and the resulting insects, etc...it’s just not worth it,

Thank you—that DA’s statement made no sense to me either.

Hope you’re having a great Thanksgiving on Staten Island!

Yesh, having a corpse in a chair the whole time, putting it on the stand, wasting tax dollars laying it in a cell for 10 years and the resulting insects, etc...it's just not worth it,

Do you suppose this might be a Captain Obvious moment? It DOES seem a bit counter productive to put a dead guy on trial. Do these people actually engage their brains before they put their feet in their mouths?
