He's going back to jail for an infection they cannot prove definitively is from the shooting.

How about if you were to give it two seconds thought about if it were you hurricane.

good point.

i couldn't imagine being that 71 year old guy and havign to go through all of this again. 20 years is a pretty damned long time to be in prison, and at 71, i would have had a heart attack on the spot the moment i heard i was being tried again for an infection.

You still haven't made your point.

Are you for a retrial or not?

I am not - and I've had 14 years since my last Law and Ethics class to think about it.

I'm not for a retrial, he should be let free. He served his time for what he did. The doctors should be blamed for incompetence if they couldn't find something like this after all these years.

And as whispers said, just let the next criminal wait it out till he's 70 something and see if the person they shot dies before they try him.

He already did his time, and atoned for it. This isn't his problem anymore.

i just got a summons from court, apparently when i sneezed back when i was 8 it was so hard it resulted in the tsunami that hit india.

OH NOES! Should we have a march for you?

**silverx2** · 09-21-2007, 12:55 PM

nah its cool

h1 & Eleniatari.. I think you guys are on the same side.. or did I miss something here? LOL

I find it VERY hard to believe that any lawyer worth his Mercedes cant get this thrown out.

heres another thought.. if convicted of this MURDER charge... can he SUE the state for wrongful prosecution for an ATTEMPTED MURDER charge he already complied with?

I mean if they tried this guy on Attempted Murder and he got off or mis-trial or something.. then yes I could see 20+ years later, if the cop died as a factual result of that incident, taking him back to court under the new charges for some sort of 'vindication/rest' for the family.

But he HAS served a sentence and abided by the rules/consequences imposed on him... and would the murder charge REALLY be that much more harsh? (doubtful in this case since it was a cop)

It's a shame Eleniatari couldn't get a handle on that before deciding to dole out their rather useless advice.

**whispers** · 09-24-2007, 08:28 AM

and here I thought I was loosing my mind..

**Eleniatari** · 09-24-2007, 10:16 AM

I realized it after I went back and reread the first page. Why do you think I simply answered the question and stopped.
