I had a DUI and 2 tickets for driving on a suspended lisence while it was suspended for DUI and it was in LA County. I turned myself in and was released the same day both times. In LA County if the charge is a misdemeanor and less then 90 days they are usually just released the same day. I have never heard of anyone serving all of their sentence for a misdemeneor in LA. This is just an ongoing battle between the Judges and the Sherrif's. Its been going on for years and the judge is just using her as an example, yet they are not telling everyone what really happens to everyone else. Any other citizen would not spend 45 days in jail. She is being treated unfairly. Just wait until they begin to show statistic of the time people spend for similiar sentences.

Congress does not pay into social security but they have authority to juggle the funds and pay people that have't put any funds into it. Congress's retirement is paid for by the taxpayers out of lthe general fund which is a catch all fund that they keep well supplied. Maybe if they had to pay SS they would take better care of out retirement fund. Also they should cut out all the extra bennies they get and not collect their retirement until the same age the rest of us do. Members of congress are just like the rest of us they put their pants on one leg at a time. This job is no more important than the job you hold.

Great guy...don't get me wrong. I'm Mexican and most of our friends are Latin or White. He's constantly talking trash about his race. We do nothing to encourage this. How can I help him be more accepting and less judgemental about his own race? I'd hate to just cut him off. Thanx.

What do you do if a newspaper wrote a front page story about a crime and called you a thief before you were convicted and stated inacurate facts, and put your name? There also was some lewd comments after the story. Is this libal defamation? Or are you just guilty before you can be proven inocent.

or was it overthrown by by the law in question? In other words, if the president usurps certain powers and authorities at the expense of constitional rights is that legal ground for dismantling the government or has a change of government already taken place in a subtle coup that crept in below the radar? If a coup has taken place, what is the appropriate course of action?

regarding the Hilton cituation why are people so jealous and worried that she did not have to spend any more time in jail? would you like your child to remain in jail if you had the resources to keep them out of jail ? If anyone answers yes you are lying. Some people were born with lots of money and then there is people who condem them but really wish they were in their shoes. Lots of people get out of jail with much worse crimes . Doesn't any one feel bad for her it's a scary cituation and now she has to go back?

I would appreciate input for my own edification about support for the death penalty.

1) Do you currently support the death penalty?

If you answered yes to #1, please answer these theoretical scenarios:

2) Theoretically, if the death penalty were to cost more than life imprisonment, would you still support capital punishment?

If yes:

3) If the death penalty also didn't deter crime, would you still support it?

If yes:

4) If it were also true that the poor and blacks were more likely to be sentenced to death than the wealthy and whites, would you still support it?

If yes, why?

I've seen people say that the death penalty saves money on clothing and feeding criminals their whole lives.
Other people have claimed that the capital punishment costs more money than life imprisonment.

Which do you think is true?

Why is it called "life imprisonment" if in most countries, it doesn't actually mean "for the rest of your life"? For example, I live in the UK, and here, many people are sentenced to "life imprisonment" for crimes such as murder and sexual attacks, but most are released within 15-30 years. If they plead guilty, they can get their sentence slashed by a third. If they are young when imprisoned, this means that they have a very real chance of getting out with many years still to live.

Also, why is it considered by some to be against a person's human rights to be imprisoned for life? What about the human rights of the person who was killed or attacked?

I'm very interested in answers from all parts of the spectrum.

The Los Angeles County jail system is so overcrowded that attorneys and jail officials have said it is not unusual for nonviolent offenders like Hilton to be released after serving as little as 10 percent of their sentences.

I have been interested in trying to buy a deralict house and have found out by land registry that the high court of appeal has put a charge on the property which an order was made under the queens bench division that no one could sell the house or do anything to it without getting permission from the court. Does anyone know a court would do this,could it be that the owner has died and not left a will?
