Why has Jim Robinson carried these threads for 2 1/2 years if it is all BS?
Why would Bob J and diotima devote a Radio FR show about this if it was all BS? Jim not censoring a thread has nothing to do with the truth or falsity of it.
Why won't you answer the question about the fire? Why did Ted start the fire?
Seems simple enough.

"Why won't you answer the question about the fire? Why did Ted start the fire?"
Just show me the actual evidence that he did.
Or do you rely on evidence from the media?
Or a "confession" in French?
You have all the evidence, lets see it.
To: 68-69TonkinGulfYatchClub
Just show me the actual evidence that he did. Uh, he admitted that he did.
To: sinkspur
"Uh, he admitted that he did."
Show me where.
To: 68-69TonkinGulfYatchClub
Show me where. Read his statement. The "accident" is the fire, silly.
To: sinkspur
"Read his statement. The "accident" is the fire"
And you know for a fact that this statement was made of his own free will,
no drugging was involved and no threats to him or his family were involved.
IF this is true and IF this is valid, why is no trial date yet set?
Also keep in mind the title of this thread is not the title of the linked article.

IF this is true and IF this is valid, why is no trial date yet set? This is the mantra of the "Free Ted Maher" set.
I don't know why no trial date is set. All this proves is that, if you get in trouble outside the United States, you're at the mercy of the laws and procedures of the country you screw up in.
This is a bizarre set of circumstances, none of which would have occurred if Ted Maher had not decided to leave his family and traipse off to Monaco in search of filthy lucre.
To: sinkspur
The Free Ted Maher mantra is
Monaco give him a fair and speedy trial OR set him free.
Ted, after all, is an America citizen.
The US recently went to bat for a pot smoking liberal, caught in Russia and got him set free.
Why not the same push for Ted?
It's pretty simple when you get right down to it.
No trial = No case
To: sinkspur
Why did Ted start the fire in the trash can? The answer to this question seems important.
Lots of silence on this one.
My husband took an already lit candle (Mr Safra had chronic diarrhea) and held in under the fire alarm. He did it solely to get help from the fire department since the police would not arrive after multiple pleas of help. The pleas of help can be shown in the 911 calls that the police "can't find" for the entire day. My husband put the candle in the wastebasket in a contained room several rooms away from Mr Safra (in a small nurses' station). The fire report show a bomb in the basement as well as a "conflaguration" of flames an HOUR after Ted left by ambulance. This is shown in the fire report.
I am not silent on this, sinkspur, I have been working the past 40 hours in 3 days, so I am trying to keep up with the questions.
To: Senator Pardek
Amazing that you find this amusing. Perhaps I should handcuff all your extremities, catheterize you, beat you, kidnap your spouse, show you their passport stating if you didn't sign the confession, your spouse will not return to your three children. I'll throw you in solitary confinement for 2 1/2 years in prison and take your picture as you see your spouse for the first time. And have some idiot comment on your picture!
To: Mrs Maher

He did it solely to get help from the fire department since the police would not arrive after multiple pleas for help.With all due respect, these sentences, like the remainder of the paragraph you posted, make absolutely no sense.
What does a lit candle have to do with Safra's diarrhea? Did Ted want the fire department to come to help with the diarrhea?
As I suspected, you live in a parallel universe, absolutely unrelated to the one I'm living in.
To: Mrs Maher
Ummm - I did not find it amusing in the least. I was merely pointing out that the image was stretched (purposely) at Court TV's site to make Ted appear to be crazed, when it was simply a photo of a surprised person - a kind of photo that we've all seen of ourselves.
Due to the nature of what you are going through, I will not demand an apology.
To: sinkspur
Candles were always lit for the diarrhea (perfumed candles). Since the police would not arrive (after being called multiple times), the fire department were alerted by setting off the fire alarm. I was explaining how the alarm was set off. I apologize for your not understanding the English language.
To: Senator Pardek
I was not going to apologize, nor did I expect you to. I realize you have no clue what hell this is by making your remark.

The paragraph above is the most bizarre thing I've read on Free Republic in a long time.
Were the perfumed candles lit because the diarrhea stunk the place up? Why did the police need to be called? Or the fire department?
I'm not getting any of this.
To: Mrs Maher
Of course I won't apologize.
Don't you realize that Court TV is trying to sell its story by distorting an image of Ted's face to make him look evil?
Don't you realize this is how the media thrives?
I know you still think I'm being sarcastic, but I'd appreciate if some lurkers could help me out here.
To: Nita Nupress
Help.
To: Mrs Maher; Senator Pardek
>>> I know you still think I'm being sarcastic, but I'd appreciate if some lurkers could help me out here.<<<
Mrs. Maher, the good Senator is not one of your enemies.
To: OwenKellogg
Thanks, Owen.
And can you please explain to her that the "original" photo is from Court TV's servers - the webmasters, on order from high, decided to stretch it out.
Look at the source code from my post, and you'll see what I mean.
To: Senator Pardek
I took your post as: you were making the point that Court TV distorted Ted's picture to produce a more sinister look.
Your comment was not meant to demean Ted, but to draw attention to the bias and tactics of Court TV.
I'm sure this is a situation that is difficult to deal with (for Mrs Maher), and with clear detractors in the area, it might be an easy mistake to misinterpret your post. I think your intentions were without malice.
