As I neither play an attorney on tv nor plan on staying at a HIE tonight, that oughta be interesting to follow tomorrow.

Thanks again .. any word on whether it's a net good/bad thing ?

As long as lacking Miranda doesn't shield the maggot somehow, bearing in mind the ACLoons will surely be involved.

Yeah, long day. I followed this thread last night and all today at work, along with the scanner. Finally decided to make a dash for home when the chopper went to refuel, thought there would be a break in the action... I was wrong, missed the climax by 5 minutes.

Great stuff though, takes me back... haven't seen a day on FR like this since the fall of Baghdad.

Only this time, FOX and CNN were basically comedy shows compared to what was available on the net.

Yep...great thread...it’s amazing to see how slow the networks are with what is really going on...how delayed they are and how clueless at times...

NOW the Islamic jhihadis don’t have their Martyr!!WHEW!
 
Maybe so, but he can - and probably will - play games and continue jihad that will gather legions of supporters and admirers that has a danger all it's own. Just like that Hassan a-hole and let me tell you, Hassan is THE most hated individual in Central Texas. He's poking his fingers in our eyes on a weekly if not daily basis and basking in it. I fear that the people of Boston are about to go through the same ride we've been on with Hassan - shock, horror and then elation that there is someone to prosecute, then disgust to abject anger. I will hope that I will be wrong, but under the current political climate we are in as led by the Regime in D.C. I'm not optimistic.

I can't focus on this screen anymore tonight, but for anyone who can, here's the rule from Wiki (yea i know  :-p


Public safety exception

The Miranda rule is not, however, absolute. An exception exists in cases of "public safety". This limited and case-specific exception allows certain unadvised statements (given without Miranda warnings) to be admissible into evidence at trial when they were elicited in circumstances where there was great danger to public safety.[8]

The public safety exception derives from New York v. Quarles, a case in which the Supreme Court considered the admissibility of a statement elicited by a police officer who apprehended a rape suspect who was thought to be carrying a firearm. The arrest took place in a crowded grocery store. When the officer arrested the suspect, he found an empty shoulder holster, handcuffed the suspect, and asked him where the gun was. The suspect nodded in the direction of the gun (which was near some empty cartons) and said, "The gun is over there". The Supreme Court found that such an unadvised statement was admissible in evidence because "[i]n a kaleidoscopic situation such as the one confronting these officers, where spontaneity rather than adherence to a police manual is necessarily the order of the day, the application of the exception we recognize today should not be made to depend on post hoc findings at a suppression hearing concerning the subjective motivation of the police officer".[9] Thus, the jurisprudential rule of Miranda must yield in "a situation where concern for public safety must be paramount to adherence to the literal language of the prophylactic rules enunciated in Miranda". The rule of Miranda is not, therefore, absolute and can be a bit more elastic in cases of public safety.[8]

You make excellant points. It will be a while for this to go to trial. Hopefully we will have a conservative President and more conservatives in Congress..maybe it won’t be quite such a charade.

I guess the euphoria of tonite has temporarily effected my usual growing cynicism...ha.
