A life without books is joyless, I’ll have no part of it.

i’m surprised no one chimed in yet on this line:

But... she is a woman. The actor. They hired. Is a woman.

So they should have exploited an actual alcoholic? Think about it for a second...

My part favorite was when the independent forensic expert quotes Cicero “To err is human, but to persevere in error is the act of a fool.” Ya burnt, Mignini!

I think most wrongfully convicted people are socially awkward. Their behavior makes them suspicious.

In 1952 in Mississippi, it cost less than $80 for the works. How much does this work out to be in today’s money?

$40 for some “skin to skin” is a bargain if you’re in Vegas.

Even thermoses?

I’m pretty sure the “well-groomed” part doesn’t refer to daily grooming routines. More like, elite private schools where people are “groomed” for a life in high society.

Panic and didn’t know to dial 112 in France?

Purely speculation, but I’m assuming he would’ve had a faster response time.

Yup. The school is the one who fucked up here, and they tried to fix it by quickly coming up with a definition after this incident had taken place. Unfortunately, from a legal standpoint, the judge is right, you can’t suspend a student based on a definition that didn’t exist at the time of the incident, and then write…

Yes. This is how contract law works. Things need to be spelled out in detail, otherwise they’re not considered part of the contract.

Certainly not. They should now direct their attention to the university and pressure them to get their shit together on writing a decent code of conduct on sexual assault. The judge seems to have made the right decision in law.

No.

Okay, maybe I’ve read this wrong, but it seems like the alleged assault happened and Brown changed their policy after the fact to address it, then Doe went to court where the judge eventually ruled in his favor.

I like what the Judge wrote there. He’s on point completely.

I think he is saying that it is up to the police to deal with it, and that the university is ill-prepared to handle rape investigations.

I think what he is saying (or at least how I interpret that post) is that victims should be going directly to the police when this sort of thing happens, not having Campus police deal with it themselves.
