Wow. You must be furious with pretty much all criminal cases.

Get yourself a new crystal ball, Miss Cleo.

Resident litigator says they should have protested the amount of bond at the bond hearing. I replied that I would cough up any number to get my son out of Durham Jail and then worry about getting it reduced later. Also they didn't have all the documentation from senators, congressmen, etc., saying he wasn't a flight risk. Lawyer says "that's not how it works." Justice system needs an overhaul.

"Get yourself a new crystal ball"

If Jezebelle told me she hated traffic and I knew she lived in LA and commuted to work, I'd think she'd find her commute frustrating -- not because I have a crystal ball, but because it's a well-drawn inference from the facts.

If Jezebelle tells me she's furious because I defendant had to borrow money to make bail, and I know lots and lots and lots of defendents do, I'd think she'd be furious with pretty much all criminal cases -- not because I have a crystal ball, but because it's a well-drawn inference from the facts.
