Actually he claimed that it was self defense and then he panicked, dismembered the body and threw it in Galveston Bay. A little bit different than “I didn’t kill that man.”

My mom called me and when she asked how my day was, I said “fucking fantastic”. It was the best day ever!

I’m 38, and I though a funny Greek name. I also thought my birthday and Christmas came early! Am I immature?

As a lawyer, the scene with the family standing around the kitchen table with the lawyer cousin on speaker phone summarized perfectly countless conversations I have had with various family members and former high school classmates about legal advice. It was great!

Wow! Thank you for sharing this. MY introduction to Halperin was on Showtime’s The Circus, and I really like him.

My little brother put it this way. it wasn’t about the sex. If it was, he could have paid for sex workers (though my brother did not use that word). IT was about the power and control and forcing attractive women to do something. That was his turn on. As my brother put it, “most men are just complete shits. Some of us…

Ok. At first, I was like, cool. I remember being a little girl getting pulled on a stage at a concert and loving it. BUT then he started touching the girl’s hair and getting way too close to her face. WTF!

I know better than to take a losing bet. You called that one.

I also want to know what you do. My husband and I haven’t separated. In fact, he probably thinks nothing is wrong. We have been together for 18 years, married for 8 of those years, and we have a five-year-old son. But I am miserable in my marriage. No cheating, but I have been unhappy for over a year. I have asked…

I still have them. Started using them as pajamas several years ago.

I went to a Catholic liberal arts college. I also wrote for the school paper (which has since been shuttered by the administration) when the Catholic church pedophilia scandal was really being exposed in the press. Of course, we thought the student paper should cover the story. The college would allow me to speak with…

I don’t think quantitative easing was necessarily the best solution, but it was not a magic trick. That was my issue with her. She described it as a magic trick that could be used to relieve all student loan debt. That was simply pandering at its worst.

THIS! As an educated, 38-yr-old white woman, I hate this fact! I didn’t give a shit that most of Cheetolini’s policies wouldn’t affect me because I care about OTHER PEOPLE. I care about the GREATER GOOD! If you want to sit in your nice little world and not care about anything that doesn’t directly impact your rights,…

40 years ago, maybe. Now they are somewhere between theocracy and right, with a few inching further up toward fascism.

I am married to a man that is constantly talking about what-if with Bernie. Last night I finally lost it when he started saying how at least Bernie would have had the respect of the international community, unlike Trump. I pointed out that so would the other fucking candidate who I actually voted for. “SO WOULD…

Exactly. The fact that the members of the Green Party are just happy to let the party become her vanity project is a disappointment. I made my mind up about Stein when I heard her describe quantitative easing as a “magic trick” in an effort to get disaffected Bernie supporters to vote for her. Fuck Jill Stein!

Reasonable doubt is not defined by most states. Thus the attorneys must explain what reasonable doubt is in their closing arguments. Usually we do this by using analogies.

I hate to be Debbie Downer here, but George Zimmerman’s verdict was on Friday night.

The prosecutor will explain reasonable doubt one way, the defense attorney will explain reasonable doubt another way. As a former public defender, I never stuck to a single way to explain it. That being said, there is no way I would not find Cosby guilty.

This is related though not directly on point. Mentioned to the older receptionist that it was not looking like a guilty verdict for Cosby because the jury has been out so long. Her response was “good”. We then got in a heated exchange. (No one else was in the office yet.) She proceeded to say how all of the women…
