Child abuse that resulted in death? Ramsey case back in the news. Were the parents involved? Who killed her?

January 29, 2013

Police believe JonBenet's mother abused, tortured and killed her, then faked a bizarre ransom note to cover her tracks, but they have never been able to prove Patsy Ramsey's guilt. However now it's coming out that the grand jury wanted the parents charged with murder.

But having worked in the legal system, I do know about juries, mob rule, and I support jury nullification. And I'm reminded that New York State chief judge Sol Wachtler was famously quoted by Tom Wolfe in The Bonfire of the Vanities that "a grand jury would 'indict a ham sandwich,' if that's what you wanted."

Since this is in the news, I posted these links in the news section.

So, what do y'all think?

    Pop Addict Book Review: "Facing the Music and Living to Talk About It" by Nick Carter

    As a huge Backstreet Boys fan, I was little perplexed on reading Nick Carter?s book.  It?s not like reading a book about Elvis Presley or The Beatles. I didn?t live through those moments. I didn?t see them in person. But as someone who has followed Nick?s career since I became a fan in 1998, not just in the Backstreet Boys, but as a solo artist, I?ve always thought we had a lot in common besides being the same age. read more

    Links to Banner-Herald's award-winning sports stories

The awards were for the sports staff's work in 2012. read more
