Sure it can, and it has. But don't blame jury nullification when it does.

There have been quite a few of them lately. It has sent me into my "mostly a lurker" mode.

I'm not exactly sure what you're seeing, but for my part, it is all simply further evidence that there are quite a few clean-only-on-the-outside cups and dishes, so to speak, around here, who have completely forgotten Who's Really in Charge.

I'm sorry to hear about this. I loved Johnny, he was a great lawyer.
Rest in peace, Johnny
It is not far away,
The place to which you go--
It is just beyond the starlit skies;
It is where the moonbeams grow.
And night is day and day is night
And sorrow comes no more,
Where love abides beyond the tides
Upon a golden shore.
And we must wait here for awhile -
Until it's time to go.
Although we carry on, we mourn,
Because we miss you so;
And through the years, God dries our tears...
He said, "My Peace I Give."
And for each hour we have the power,
Because our Savior lives.

That's an accurate observation, w/c.
To: mhking
Not on this Ping list Mike.(and thats ok)- but this is sad news. Counseler Cochran was good at what he did and will be missedby his family and in the legal world.
Gods-speed Johnny Cochran.

FR is not the same Free Republic I knew when I signed up in 2001I don't think that we are the only ones noticing the "change" here many of us that came on 2001 and before see it and mention it a lot lately.
I say just hang out and watch and they'll be gone soon like winter rye they can't stand anything over 80 degrees.
To: Rightly Biased
I only came on in 03 after lurking for a year and I notice the change - almost like a hi-jack attempt. Hopefully this too, will pass.

They were licensing his name to that law group. I remember seeing a press release after the Metrolink train crash for victims to contact them to sue Glendale, Metrolink, Union Pacific, and who knows else. I thought it was odd that he wouldnt appear in person to do it. I bet the family was living off the royalties of using his name.
