A quick and dirty explanation for why Shannon Stillwell was acquitted of the murder of Shymel Drinks in the YSL case (in my view).

1. The victim was killed with a .40 caliber, and there was no evidence that Stillwell ever owned a .40.
The gang "expert," Viverito, tried to claim that she recognized the bottom of a Glock 27c in a video that Stillwell posted on social media, but she has no special expertise or training with firearms, and her whole basis is that she held one, once, at a gun store.
2. The State claimed that Stillwell shot the victim from a rental car as he pulled up alongside him at a light. But even though investigators carefully swabbed the car, they did not find any gunshot residue inside of it. It would be difficult to completely scrub the car.

I want to talk for a minute about a very good, bipartisan bill that you should support: the SLAPP protection act.

A SLAPP (strategic lawsuit against public participation) is a weak defamation suit that you file, not to win the case, but to impose litigation costs. /1
So for instance, let's say you go to a restaurant and have a terrible experience. You write a review describing your experience, and the restaurant sues you. Now, you have to pay a lawyer 300 dollars an hour, or take your review down and apologize. /2
Or, let's say you say something critical about a public figure in your area. Maybe you think the mayor of your town is corrupt (statistically you're probably right). Now that is a protected opinion.

But if he sues you, are you gonna spend the money to stick to your guns? /3

Last year my daughter was learning to ride a bike. A large dog, off leash, starts chasing her. She is terrified. It's jumping on her.

The useless piece of shit owner is like, trying to instruct his dog to stop, and I have to sprint up the street to try and grab the dog off.
The dude is giving these half assed apologies about how his dog isn't scary and won't hurt my kid. Which the dog has already fucking done.

My wife, always calm, gave the man a thorough talking to.
In my view, if your dog is off leash and running around, unless it's escaped from an enclosure for a reason beyond your control, there should be a substantial fine. If it keeps happening, you are not someone who should own a dog.

The case against Jackie Johnson is extremely dumb. When Ahmaud Arbery was murdered, she decided not to bring charges. For that she is being charged with obstruction and violation of oath of office.

She was dead wrong. But take ten seconds to think about this case. /1
The claim is that she was showing favor to Gregory McMichaels, a former investigator in her office, by not proseucting him.

But DA's use their discretion like this all the time, and in a hundred different ways. Veterans, young people, people with substance abuse. /2
The last thing any fan of criminal justice reform should want is a fucking guillotine over every DA's neck if the AG disagrees with their decision not to charge, /3

Bad stuff I expect to happen:

Mifepristone ban
Tariffs
Nutty district and appellate judges
Ending support for Ukraine
Insane deficit spending
Conservative SCOTUS basically forever
Bad stuff that could happen:

Repealing CHIPS act
Federal vaccine skepticism
Increasingly bold censorship efforts from State AG's
Some stuff that might not be totally shit:

Not completely opposed to CJ reform.
Section 230 reform probably off the table now that tech companies favor conservative viewpoints
Corruption and poor hiding of corruption eventually becomes hilarious?

Ok, so let's go through the 2005 affirmance of Marcellus Williams prosecution.

According to the Supreme Court of Missouri, the evidence against Williams was:

1. His girlfriend
2. His cellmate
3. Items in the girlfriend's possession that belonged to the victim. Image
Williams' defense was that his girlfriend was a prostitute turning him in for a 10k reward who had actually been the person to rob the victim, and that she had lied about him giving her a ride because his car didn't work. Image
I think a reasonable juror could discount the testimony of the snitch and the girlfriend, but tough to get past the possession of the victim's items without some good evidence that the girlfriend committed the crime.
