She hasnt attended one single day of the trial. She hasnt read one deposition. She hasnt asked the Fulton County District Attorney any questions regarding the case but suddenly Coretta Scott King is interest in the murder trial of H. Jamil Rap Abdulla Yadda Brown Yadda Al-Amin.
Coretta says that all of the inconsistencies brought forth at the trial should be explored and fully investigated. So, there you have it folks. Its Corettas Rule. Anytime different witnesses bring forth conflicting testimony at a trial all trial proceedings should halt so that the inconsistencies in the testimony can be fully investigated. Or Instead of Corettas Rule, we could just go with state law and the way things have been done in criminal trials for hundreds of years. We could just let the jury listen to the testimony, judge the truthfulness of the witnesses, and draw their own conclusions.
Oh and we have another new rule from The Queen. Before you can convict someone of murder you have to prove a motive. She says that a clear and unequivocal motive must be established for the verdict to have the credibility needed for closure. So --- under this rule from Coretta you can have a man brutally murder another man in front of 1,500 witnesses --- but unless you establish a motive for the murder you should let the guy go. Hey, Coretta. Hows this for a motive? He didnt want to be arrested!
Interestingly enough, Corettas statement was not released through the usual King Center channels. Instead, it was released by a spokesman for an Islamic group that has been steadfast in its defense of Al-Amin.
She sure is...
Fascinating, the Dreamland hustle. Wish I could have a look at the Mansion of Kings...is it in Atlanta?
