- We officially have yet another murder in Wise County as the surviving man in the weird knife attack in Newark last week has now been arrested for the deaths of his father and brother.
- So she says she was "switched" at the Grapevine hospital in 1975. So what are here damages? She claims she was molested as a child as part of the "wrong" family. This is like a law school problem which I'd rather not think about.
- Here's a link to her Fort Worth lawyer. This is appropriately on his home page:
- Get ready.
- Is there a law that says you have to put on a cowboy hat when you know the national cameras are going to be on you?
- And the $350,000 Man was there being a campaign prop on his very last days before retirement. Maybe he's hoping for one last Christmas bonus.
- According to the Messenger, the Runaway Bay Country Club and golf course is now closed as its proposed donation to Weatherford College was rejected by the administration.
- Rudy was back in court trying to explain why he isn't turning over his property to pay a $148 million defamation judgment because of one of his particularly vicious election denial lies.
- Speaking of Giuliana, I was curious if AG pick, Pam Bondi, who drove with Giuliani to Philadelphia to contest the 2020 election, was at the crazy Four Seasons Landscaping press conference. She was, although she wasn't in the photos or on camera.
- And she was at the Philadelphia Convention Center a couple of days before claiming the election was stolen. That's a dangerous sign for the future. (I thought that might be Todd Blanche, Trump's future criminal defense lawyer and current deputy AG pick, in the red mask by her side but probably not.)
- Although I'm surprised by this, it's far from a "cease fire." It's actually a 60 day pause which lines up with the Jewish holidays and Trump taking office.
- Criminal law interesting stuff: This is too involved to summarize in one sentence so here's the link
Same guy. 2017 and 2024. - Fun stuff: Time has released its "100 Photos of the Year" which also serves as a great review of the year since each has a detailed caption.
- Very legal nerdy stuff: As of December 1st, all petitions and briefs filed in appeals must contain bookmarks in the PDF. At lease in civil cases only. We criminal boys have just figured out how to create a PDF so it doesn't apply to us.
