Death Cases:

(1) This is the most disgusting case I've seen in as long as I can remember.

(2) The Defense intends to claim this man was insane. And it's pretty easy to see why.

(3) He is a threat but he isn't: A man butchered a girl 17 years ago. He was declared insane and held in the State mental institution. He's now been declared merely mentally ill and not a threat. But he's still not being released because he is a threat as a sexual predator. Sounds contradictory to me.

(4) Further shaky confessions in the Malvo case. No Miranda, a ludicrous claim that guards are not law enforcement1, and a question asked Sounds like everything after the question should be excluded to me.



1 Would a prosecutor even try this argument if guards had separated a fight and then taken the two men off to interrogate them? Or if the guards were questioning everyone on the cell block as to how drugs got into the block?
