The murder charge was bogus. The only reason she was charged with murder is because she killed someone who worked for the District Attorney's office.

I'm with stayindy and nickilawyer. As I recall from reading ab out the story some time back, others who witnessed this event did not characterize it as anything forced. Those witnesses described the "victim" as being a willing participant! By the way, if any man forces a woman to perform oral sex on him, he risks getting bitten. Would these men really risk such a thing? I doubt it. Their behavior was certainly foolish but hardly what I would consider criminal!

Why do you think the insurance industry is spending $1.5 million per day to fight this legislation?

This does not pass the smell test! Shame on the county!

Adolescent boys are rarely victims of sexual abuse perpetrated by older women. Seven years and hundreds of sexual encounters is indicative of someone who benefited, and was not victimized.

When I was 15 and had my driver's learners permit, I was the designated driver for an 18 year old girl who liked to drink but was smart enough to not drink and drive. In exchange for my driving her around she allowed me to have sex with her. I was not a victim and she was not a sexual preditor.

If this "victim" testifies, he will do so because he's being pressured by others to do so.

Shame on the Sheriff for going after Terris. This was a witch hunt that should have been dealt with by issuing a written reprimand!

On Organizing Effort Called Insubordination

I often witness cars and trucks that speed through a yellow light as it's turning red and they should be ticketed. I don't see many bicyclists run red lights but I very often see them run stop signs. What makes a bicyclist think he / she shouldn't have to stop at a stop sign? Is it the inconvenience of having to start up again after stopping? If so, does that mean they're lazy or do they have a death wish?

Why does there need to be new legislation when is seems clear that the 1993 law already exempts honorably discharged vendors like Connell?

On Hot Dog Man Relishes Victory

TTM: Hollywood fled after hearing on the news that the police wanted him for murder and that he might be armed and dangerous. He was fearful that he might be shot on sight instead of being arrested.

I agree with most commentators that the prosecution has not met the burden of proof that Hollywood committed murder or that he committed aggravated kidnapping. The jury will likely find him guilty of kidnapping, though.
