She STOLE. A thief is a thief.
Did she? The articles I have seen have been very careful to only say that she was “accused” or “charged.”

Again I ask, “Was she convicted of anything?”

countdown now to the first disparaging “mean tweets“ response.

For some reason, those people simply cannot seem to grasp the difference between “mean” and “counterproductive.”

I personally do not much care about the former, but yes the latter is frustrating.

I bet this is taking so long because the jury has been warned they must find him guilty of something.
Good Lord, they are working through a 37-page jury charge and reviewing two weeks of evidence.

In short, they are doing the job that they were empaneled to do.

Do the adoptive parents normally climb into the same hospital bed for a photo op?
I have never adopted personally, but a number of my friends have done so. Yes, they took photos in the hospital with the newly adopted babies.

If the information from the website link above is correct, this is not remotely unusual.

I make no apologies for finding it more than a tiny bit weird and obsessive for you to be so concerned about newly-adoptive parents taking a photo with their new babies. It is almost as if you think they should be ashamed of their actions and not want them recorded.

He trespassed in a secure governmental facility, but that sentence does seem a bit harsh.
Sane people all over the country wonder why the unremarkable process of this adoption (from wristbands to accommodations to photos) have caused such controversy for a certain demographic.
quote:

once the adoptive family arrives at the hospital, they should receive ID wristbands or badges. This way, they will have access to the maternity ward, the ability to see the prospective birth mother (depending on her wishes) and to see the baby in the nursery.

Depending on the hospital’s availability and what the prospective birth mother is comfortable with, the adoptive parents may have a private room. Otherwise, the adoptive family should expect to spend most of the time in your room.

But they are gay. Icky.

So how does this work? Did one of them have sex with someone or jerk off in a cup? or were these made by other mens sperm?
Strange fixation, but the reporting says it was a standard adoption as opposed to any form of surrogacy.

Apparently, they were on a waiting list for about a year.

Funny how the same people who say there is no problem with this behavior but then admonish the judge for his ringtone or choice of food for lunch.
Really?

I posted an entire thread that the lunch joke was funny, and I could not care less about the ringtone. It was a nice song from the day it was released.

Hope that did not rain on your martyrdom.
The Buttigieg Babies are just one of those topics that will get a new thread every month or so for all eternity, right?

A gay couple adopted some babies. That stopped being news more than a decade ago.

I remember when the film was first released, watching a young Vince d’Onofrio and wondering why he was making such a big deal about such mundane ammo.

But Private Pyle did do a fairly impressive job of making FMJ seem both extremely dangerous and borderline creepy.



Little-known fact. Vince was a skinny guy. He had to gain 70-pounds to play Private Pyle

I've posted a trial lawyer going over Georgia law.
You posted an oral statement by a NEW YORK lawyer, purporting to summarize Georgia law. She told Shapiro that Bryan cannot be convicted if he shows "by a preponderance of the evidence" that their attempted arrest was justified, and she seemed amazed that no other commentator is examining this theory.

Well, she is correct that no one other than her is analyzing this theory. No one else is looking at this theory, because she is wrong on all counts.

She got this "preponderance of the evidence" business from a pretrial "Motion for Immunity" filed by Roddy Bryan in August of 2020. Apparently, she just accepted Bryan's argument as gospel, without doing any research or even bothering to determine the court's disposition of his motion.

In that Motion, Bryan asserted that he could not be prosecuted, based upon "immunity" under the doctrine of "self-defense" and a few other theories. He argued in that motion that the State could not proceed with his prosecution, if he established "by a preponderance" that he acted in self-defense (nothing about the validity of the attempted citizens arrest).

Setting aside the fact that his Motion did not even address "citizens arrest," but rather "self-defense," such an immunity motion must be resolved PRIOR TO TRIAL. The State's responsive brief DESTROYED Bryan's argument, and Bryan withdrew that Motion WITHOUT HEARING in May of 2021. Because the case against Bryan was not dismissed pretrial based upon Bryan's immunity motion, it goes to the jury based upon the normal criminal trial burden of proof.

Among other things, the State is prosecuting him for false imprisonment, and the State must prove the elements of that crime beyond a reasonable doubt, including the element that he acted without legal authority.
quote:

All they need is the preponderance of evidence tilted in their favor.
I think everyone is waiting for you to provide some sort of authority or link to substantiate this ridiculous notion.

Thus far, all we have seen is “I think I heard someone say something like this on Shapiro.”
