Nice piece of fish posted:If you accept a pardon you also declare your guilt, do you not? Mr. Nice! posted:Presidential pardon power is basically unlimited and no one challenged it. The only challenges to the pardon power historically just say that a pardon has to be publicly accepted and that it cannot be forced on someone. The commonsense idea that you can't force a pardon on someone is the wellspring from which the idea that a pardon has to be accepted flows. Burdick, the case that the 'no involuntary pardons' rule came out was a case where the pardon was not being used as a pardon, but as a tool to try to force a person to testify. This also implicated the 5th Amendment right not to incriminate oneself, and so in dicta that court also speculated that accepting a pardon carried an implicit acceptance of guilt. It's only in the that limited context of misusing a pardon to force someone to testify against one's 5th amendment rights that that bit of woolgathering comes into the broader discussion about pardons. What gets lost in the myopic "BUT TRUUUUUMP" moaning and blackly ironic twisting of the law is that pardons can and are used in cases of actual innocence, which pretty clearly puts the lie to the fiction that they are findings of guilt.

Pictures are just data. Process what you need and leave the rest. Cross examining child victims of sex crimes isn't fun. Having client B tell you that several years previously he set up client A on a child sex case (and who got 25 years) and not being able to do anything about it isn't fun.

Hot Dog Day #91 posted:I'm surprised the term magic bullet lawyer wasn't in widespread use. Except when the defense finds one, all the DA has to do is call "I am rubber, you are glue, the bounces of me and sticks on you" and you lose. For the state, the bullets aren't so much magic as much as you're the only one allowed to use them. **May not be applicable in CT, where the DAs are fair and strong and wise and the rule of law is a friend and mentor.

We had a guy on probation for drug possession who appeared on a local news "man on the street" segment about a voter initiative that was going to make (among other things) drug possession a misdemeanor rather than a felony. He was in favor of the initiative, then added that marijuana should be legalized, and then went on to say that in fact, he had smoked marijuana that very day.

Adar posted:The UK is currently busy shedding unnecessary jobs, economic growth and all remaining spare parts of itself because a bunch of idiots called a vote to score political points knowing that the vote would lose, then stampeded to campaign for the losing side. When that side accidentally won, the majority of the idiots decided to roll with it and continue to campaign on who can sabotage the economy harder. The opposition party would be extremely well placed to capitalize on this, but So you're saying it's pretty much exactly as if we had stayed.
