@rabiasquared They’re not crime related, but everything else by Kate McLennan and Kate McCartney is amazing. Rosehaven, Utopia and Fisk are also good Aussie comedies but don’t have the cliffhanger energy of Deadloch. That show was more magical than the Mt Mountain Glow Worm Trail.
@daveanthony I presume this is what was mentioned on Dollop 590? He seems like one of those guys who, when turned down for a date, says “f*** you, you’re an ugly s*** anyway”.
@cupofjustice@MandyMatney@Audioboom Is the information discovered by a lawyer-hired PI covered under attorney-client privilege & therefore bound by non-disclosure without the client’s consent?
@amandadeibert If a partner will punch an object in anger while mad at you, they will inevitably punch you. This is a great instance of someone knowing their boundaries, drawing a line and removing themselves from an unsafe situation before it escalated to crisis mode.
@rabiaandellyn Not for nothing, I think the police jumped into action, not just cuz of recent abductions, but because she was heavily pregnant and there was a high chance a medical emergency happened where she couldn’t call for help. Also, pregnancy is a massive homicide risk factor for women.
@reblavoie@rabiaandellyn I might convict him civilly but not criminally. I haven’t really seen photos of the guy. The defence didn’t do as good a job as Rabia in laying out his timeline and alibis.
@mayaonstage@atrupar What do you call 10 people having dinner with a Nazi? 11 Nazis. What do you call a Republican who refuses to separate themselves from or stand up to their MAGA counterparts? Cowards.
@ProsecutorsPod Neither is wholly true. Public defenders *are*, in the majority of jurisdictions & situations, massively overloaded w cases. They have to ask for funds for experts & can be denied. But paid attorneys often overload themselves & don’t have as good in-court relationships 🤷🏻♀️
@ProsecutorsPod re Syed motion, is it possible that the prosecutors office presented more evidence (say identifying each suspect or holdback linking to them) in chambers which has not been included in the public motion but was part of the judge’s decision?
@fuckyouiquit “My aesthetically unpleasant vehicle is still serviceable and I consider it an unwise financial decision to purchase another when I have no need and, as cars lose their value quickly, see no investment opportunity. Please outline how incurring debt is a sound financial decision.”
@JimClemente@rabiasquared From what I can tell based on their statements and witness testimony, they had a toxic relationship with mutual combat. The financial ruling was based not on how true the accusations were but on how much each person’s career had been affected, shown via Q scores etc. Thoughts?
@punknewsie@daveanthony Did Regan famously ignore the AIDS crisis leading to mass deaths in the queer community? Sure. But a woman serving a perfectly beat face, giant hair and iconic outfit while being renowned for her sword swallowing skills? That’s an *icon*. Queer politics is complicated.
@davidhogg111 We don’t have school shootings in Australia and we have quite strict gun laws, but we still have lockdown drills in case the first one happens
@LifeNewsToo Perhaps turn your attention to those already living people who are dying from preventable gun violence, if you care so much about preserving life.
