Allison Mack (Smallville actress) gets 3 years in prison for being part of a sex-trafficking ring

I just read that. Absolute bullshit.

The DA really fucked the case up on that one. A damn shame.

Well on the bright side, Donald Rumsfeld is dead

i don't really see a bright side on a person passing. even if it's rummy. i will simply not speak ill of the dead. but that's just me.

Some day I need to actually watch the Simpsons.

[Sharkerbob]

I don't have to watch the youtube to know where this is going.

Flexible weapons are....iffy to start with.

Flexible weapons with both ends doing weird **** are just a bad plan.

When is Hollywood actually going to get experts to make up their bizarre weapons? Wait, I know - because experts will make up stuff that looks NORMAL, because it's the stuff we've already come up with that WORKS. And Hollywood wants Very Special™ looking garbage and doesn't care if it doesn't work.

"Yeah, I mean, I guess it's a nice looking katana, but, like, what if we also stuck a second katana to with a chain made of barbed wire, and also bolted a pistol into the grip, and put laser sights on the second handle, to help you aim your swing?"

I am somehow simultaneously surprised and yet not.

I mean, they had him dead to rights, and he was in prison, so it seemed like it was a lock.

But also he's a rich celebrity, so of course. Even if he'd ended up in jail, it'd've been some special lightweight sentence.

I'm almost astonished she actually got sentenced anything, so good she didn't walk, but 3 years ain't nothin' for something that bad.

It was a lock.

But apparently the info that made it a lock? Obtained during questioning where the DA said "hey, we won't use this information and send you to jail" so Cosby talked and then they said "Hey we're going to use this information to send you to jail."

And then Cosby's lawyers were like "You know this invalidates all the evidence you just got and he's going to walk free on appeal right?"

And then he gets out on the appeal like they said.

Just uh, great job DA.

Where you're right though, is that someone poorer wouldn't have been able to pay lawyers and all that to get that appeal looked at iirc, so basically if you have money the system works more easily for you, and if you don't you're in an unfair system.

Gotta love this place

I mean, yeah, you're not supposed to pull **** like that.

On the other hand, clearly fucking guilty, self-admittedly so.

I mean, I dunno, this seems like a situation where the DA needs to get slapped with some kind of punishment for the **** up, but at the same time, you don't just let the guilty guy walk.

Because the DA screwed the pooch as bad as they did, that's exactly what they have to let Cosby do; and as a result he can no longer be tried on the same charges. Another victim (and I really hope there's not more, it's already bad enough) will have to come forward.
