Bragg Manhattan DA charges tfg? Hush money. tfg “INDICATED!”

Hey Ben Matlock served on a jury on one episode. He was the only vote for not guilty on the first vote. He of course convinced the other 11 to acquit on the show. Let's hope fiction does not become reality. :roll:

This doesn't even qualify as a dead cat bounce (re: after hours trading). I might try to buy some puts tomorrow if there is actually an uptick.

May 17-25 put options are going for 6.35 right now. Could spend a few bucks on some of those. If it drops to 20 you could probably clear an 80% to 100% profit by the end of the week.

Good. I was wondering about that.
I watched an interview with Carl Douglas today. He was asked about the Goldman's chances of collecting and said they were very small.

I thought he was a murderer and still do. I thought the prosecution and the police botched what should have been a conviction. One thing I do not understand is why the trial was moved to LA from Brentwood? Maybe Stern or someone who practices in CA could explain that. Judge Ito let the defense run a...

I was thinking that OJ was responsible for two events that those of us who were alive and of age will remember where we were and what we were doing when they occurred. The first is the low speed car chase. NBC actually broke into the NBA playoffs to provide coverage. I was with 11 other guys at a go...

I figured OJ's death deserved its own topic. What is his place in American culture and history? Did his trial damage race relations for years? How badly did the prosecutors blow the case or was it unwinnable from the start? Anything related is up for discussion.

Bragg Manhattan DA charges tfg? Hush money. tfg “INDICATED!”

Here's a useful information resource. NYS criminal cases are run on paper filings (plus email exchanges that, for the post part, only the court and parties get to see). So there's no internet access to the filings, and even if you have the time and resources to check the court files, you'll find th...

I have been following the weather forecast along the path especially NE Ohio. We used to live there and still have a lot of friends. As of now the forecast is mostly cloudy. I could have guessed that. I have never lived in a cloudier place than Canton from October through April.
