“Did I miss a ping? Slow thread.”

Good time for every damn one of us Freeqs to call Congress - this is a challenge. Even if, as in my case, the senators and the district congressman are rats of the highest order.

I am SICK of their inaction on illegal immigration
I am SICK of their transparent ploys to remove our duly elected President (63 million people voted for him!)
I am SICK of their bizarre and immoral proposals to change our country.

Lastly I am SICK of calling them and getting no answers other than canned “thank you for your comments - but the senator believes that she needs to pander to the worst elements in our society..”

...”Kraft’s lawyers are arguing that the original warrant allowing the lead detective to install hidden cameras in the ceiling of the massage parlor (done after they planted a fake bomb at the strip mall and hustled all the employees and customers out “for their own safety”) was an overreach and an invasion of the privacy of all concerned. For their part, the prosecutors claim Kraft had little expectation of privacy while patronizing a public business establishment and, even if he did, the defense would need to show that the warrant was illegal before the question could be answered.

It certainly sounds as if the detectives had ample reason to believe that there was prostitution taking place. But if was strictly a solicitation bust, would a judge have approved a warrant for video surveillance rather than sending in some undercover agents to find out if sex was on the menu? When the detectives framed it as possible human trafficking, however, the stakes went up considerably and a warrant was readily granted. Now that no trafficking was found, does that make the warrant retroactively illegitimate?

That’s the question the judge, in this case, will need to decide. If Kraft’s team can pull this off and have the video permanently sealed, most of these cases will probably fall apart. Either way, this court case is going to go down in the history books of trials as one of the more bizarre ones, even by Florida standards.”
