She's undeniably badass. She got her first big break when she was defending senator Giulio Andreotti (one of Italy's most prominent and shady political figures) when he was tried on his alleged mafia dealings. She runs her own legal firm and in recent years she has been very vocal about women's rights. Her choice of…
Have I mentioned yet today that I hate everyone?
Not in Italy.
No shit... PLENTY of people are convicted with rape with no video evidence. I wonder if it had never existed if the outcome would have been different... (I say this as someone who has been following this case pretty closely, but I also admit I do not know every detail).
Um, there's nothing odd about that at all. Or do you not have that saying in America?

Salinger, seriously? Is that still a thing?
No writers of color? Surprise Surprise. Hit me back when you have a list as curated by Laverne Cox and Kerry Washington.
I suppose it's a sign of my unhealthy obsession with Logan that I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER the hotel thing. Of course I'm shite at retaining plot details, but damn, you'd think I would remember that.
Yes please write to your congressman and get this instated ASAP.
Wouldn't is be a smart business move if all seasons of Veronica Mars were available on Netflix Streaming, before the movie is released? That way people can catch up or get hooked again or for the first time, or maybe just watch an episode if they haven't before.
