[Protect the Bill of Rights]

I was talking to a cop friend of mine. I forget what the discussion was about but he said the laws assumes you know or you should know
(i.e. Officer I didn't know this Diamond Ring my boyfriend gave me was stolen.")

Do you think that is what Nifong is doing. He will use 'Mr. Elmostafa should have known the purses were stolen?'

I think more what the law assumes is that IF you are offered a $1000 at retail brand new lap top for $200 that it is likely "hot."

Thus, I doubt the woman whose boyfriend gave here a stolen engagement ring would be bothered by the law unless it was a say 4 carat diamond and her boyfiend did not have much in the way of income, wealth or a ring like this as a family heirloom.
