Do I detect some desperation? Good Luck.
Too late...said a Hail Mary and took them out. BUT, I'll always remember that tip. Thanks!!
I remember beating rugs with that metal thing and the old broom and dustmop. I still have a dustmop.
Try a clean broom straw to test the bread's doneness.
You bet; I'm going to end up paying for this farce.
LOL
Aren't briefs, and statements before the court considered to be sworn statements? (I'm not a lawyer)
When the judge asked if the defense had received ALL of the evidence, and Nifong answers "yes" and he knows the answer is "no", isn't that a sworn statement by an officer of the court?
Isn't that obstruction of justice?
If Nifong carried the evidence to the lab, his name should be in the chain of evidence record and be subject to questioning, shouldn't he?
that should have "chain of custody"
That's OK, since they are just rich white boys, winners of life's lottery.
Looks like you're tired. Take a break. "Numbers" is on now so away I go. Nite all!!
Yup. When the parents of these kids are done...Well, it won't be pretty.
This case has the potential to cause a lot of distrust and lack of confidence in our legal system generally, on the part of tens of millions of Americans. But how many are even paying attention? Has the MSM given any attention to the latest developments? I get most of my news from FR and FNC...the brief times I have switched to one of the enemedia stations they are on some other topic.
The cops in the Rodney case were clearly subjected to double jeopardy, unless you honestly believe the writers of the Constitution intended for every offense to be defined several ways.
If you believe in the multiple definition theory, the Constitution is solid as a rock, and you are a grand supporter of the Constitution as George Bush Senior was.
If you believe the intent was not for multiple definitions, giving the concept of double jeopardy meaning, you can only hold those like Bush Senior in contempt, because their actions proved they had no respect for the Constitution.
Let's hear it. How about a call for a little "ABJ" time for Nifong!!!!
"Maybe that crafty mike nifong knows the DNA evidence is, um, crap, so he is trying through his own misconduct to have it rendered inadmissible?"
Too many wheels within wheels methinks. It's more likely that Nigfong is just plain stupid and got caught.
For the same reason Ted Kennedy is still a Senator.
The truth will set you free to go on your merry way if have not conscience or moral principals.
I would depend, but generally speaking, representations made to the court by an attorney wouldn't be considered sworn statements.
You do have an obligation not to lie to a court, but it's an ethical obligation that could result in disbarment. Again, this is outside my field of expertise, but I'm almost certain on this.
If you don't lie to the court, you generally don't ever have to think about these things... :-)
