Lessee... Monday already? Nice thing about being retired you most days don't know - or care - what day it is. I don't anyway. What happened over the
weekend? The kangaroo court thing with Trump wrapped up on Friday, the state-run media were emotionally self-pleasuring themselves. OK, actually they
were doing each other a lot. What happened in NEA? Well, it seems the extraterrestrials or occultists or whatever is killing animals around Evening
Shade is
still at it.
Wanna know my theory? Nevermind, inside joke.... how about extraterrestrial
occultists? Or the misfit kid of a wealthy executive obsessed with Marilu Henner? Alright, enough kidding around.
The Jonestown paper had
this bit,
I was wondering how a murder trial takes so long to get underway. Right off there seems to be some inconsistency in the spelling of the name of the alleged perp
so it may take a bit. Got a Jaylon in the Sun article and elsewhere got a Jaylin that seems to have done the same crime. May take some research. What else we got?
Lessee, animal killings,
carjacking in Jonesboro, fellow
discharged a firearm in the Academy Sports store in
Jonesboro. Headline says 'Deputy fires gun...' but then it says that he said he was a LEO and then Crittenden County gets brought up somehow and the sheriff
over there said on Facebook it wasn't one of his deputies. OK, then he said he was a reserve officer in St. Francis County and had worked for the Left Memphis and
Forrest City police. Hmm, Left Memphis, Forrest City.... yeah. Let's just leave it for now.
Since the Left Memphis talks about NEA some let's see what's up over there besides the garden variety killings. They're trying a guy for murder, say he done his
wife in back about a dozen or so years ago. I remembered it after I used the google thing, seems they arrested the husband she was divorcing. Woman disappearing
under those circumstances would seem suspicious but sometimes things aren't what you might think. I'm not gonna speculate on this case - beyond the obvious fishiness -
but looking at this from the Memphis telly station was well...
Hang on, this may take a minute...
I'd like to see the screw. I've pulled a lot of screws out of tires, believe it or not I've put one or two in just to see how it works. A screw big enough to flatten a tire
can easily to in at ninety degrees, like I said I've seen it. And eventually pierce a tire? I'll be charitable and guess he means you might eventually hit something
that would pierce a tire. I've hit debris and felt the tire going down inside of a minute if the cut was big enough. OK, this is a prosecution witness and he's gonna say
what the persecutor wants him to. Just like a minion of the regime trying to put Donald Trump away. But it's lousy testimony and it doesn't say here what the defense asked
on cross. But...
In the wonderful
Al Pacino film from 1979 or thereabouts (highly recommended, obviously) Al - before
doing one of his first great rants - is addressing the jury:
And that's the way it is, as someone-or-other used to say, only that
actually wasn't the way it was sometimes, it was the way he was
told to say it was. Didja follow that? Not sure I did but anyway - and 'That's the way that is' is a nice track from the Uriah Heep's
Abominog album) - it demonstrates the
mentality drives outrages like
this recent case
which has some eerie similarities to this case. The husband of a dead or even just disappeared wife or ex-wife is a convenient target like F. Lee Bailey told the
jury in the
Sam Sheppard trial they look where the light is better even if they have no reason to believe
the answer is there.
The guy in Colorado seems to be safe for now since the prosecutor is now thoroughly discredited, but no such luck for
Cameron Todd Willingham. Every bit of
testimony against him was debunked AFTER he had already been executed. As prosecutors say though - give me a circumstantial case any day. No need for fingerprints,
DNA, or eyewitnesses - and that has put quite few guys away. There are innocent people in prison, a lot of them
So this dude may or man not have done something with his wife - odds are he's going away guilty or not.
I may or not have observed a few days ago that June is 'Pride Month' and listed the thirty-odd 'pride' celebrations. Well, June also has
Juneteenth, and it looks to be
purtnear a month, not as any as pride events but giv'em time. Juneteenth is notable for increased killings among the celebrants,
this and
this
are a couple of examples from last year's festivities. Wonder if Wickedpedia has a category for Juneteenth killings. Just kidding.
