Well, if it’s “torture” when we do this to terror suspects then it must be inadmissable in US courts.

In other words, it is a foregone conclusion the defense has all but poo-pooed the notion she deserves punishment?

The only good news is that NASA recently also booted the Male in the middle of this, Billy Olrelalan. He got the boot as well.

Well that's a shame because the guy involved was William Oefelein.

Boy that must have either been a really low key announcement, or I gave it the attention it deserved.

It is always the job of the defense to see that the client gets little or no further punishment.

That’s where our justice system has gone off the rails.

It should be their job to see that justice is served.

Totally understandable. You can’t keep soiled diaper evidence for so long, they stink up the entire courthouse.

"...has all but poo-pooed..."

You are correct. I was just using it as a chance for a play on words since the judge tossed out the dirty diaper.

There's every chance that it was space flight that screwed this woman up. You go up into a zero-g environment your T-cells stop functioning. When you come back down to Earth, they start with a bang.

Sometimes the "restart" is rocky and folks find out they have recessive genes that create "allergies" to all sorts of things.

This woman is not the first astronaut to get seriously ill after a trip. She won't be the last. What I don't understand is why NASA didn't arrange for appropriate medical intervention.

BTW, the obvious onset of Celiac Disease is a clue to the problem.

Clearly, Lubet is corrupt and the fix is in. My guess is that the astronut’s lawyer is a political heavy hitter, and either he throws around a lot of campaign cash to judges or he’s got some dirt on Lubet. Whatever. Obviously the lawyer is “connected” and he is having a wink and nod party with the corrupt judge Lubet.

She’s a woman, she’s innocent!!! Like the lady teachers, like the wife who blew away her husband (teacher)’s brains; she was released after about 14 months.

Men can’t get justice in the US and women don’t experience justice in the US.

How do we really know any of the facts if we are not in the courtroom hearing the evidence. I am never one to swallow the prosecutors assertions. These guys have careers and they only look good when they win. Remember Nifong.

Hey I’m just saying be cautious not to jump on a band wagon, it really is hard to know the truth as an outsider. Unfortunately life has taught me to distrust virtually everyone involved in a court case, because even when people believe they are telling the truth sometimes they just see a cylinder from end on perspective, and report they see only a disk... If you get my so clumsily expressed meaning. Nothing scares me more than an intuitive investigator after all. It’s late and not sure if I am making any sense but thanks for listening.

As far as the diapers, depends, poopy pants stuff,

She is an astronaut and military pilot.

As far as I know, male pilots have piddle packs.
I am sure they have the equivalent for the female pilots.

Or, am I wrong, and she had a box of diapers in the car?
