Man died after not being given water in jail for nearly 3 days, family says

This should never happen. I hope the Alabama Attorney General and U.S. Department of Justice closely examine this situation and bring appropriate homicide charges against any Walker County Deputy who caused this man's senseless death.

Anthony Mitchell was not given water for more than 70 hours before being taken to a hospital on Jan. 26, according to a lawsuit filed by his mother.

Several LaVergne, TN police officers accused of having s*x with each other and sending n**e photos to each other "while on duty and inside city owned property." The officers, of course, are innocent until and if proven guilty.

Five officers with the La Vergne Police Department are being released and another three officers suspended after various bouts of s*xual misconduct were uncovered during an internal investigation.

Parents of Stanford soccer player Katie Meyer, who died by su***de, sue school for wrongful death

I am usually a bit plaintiff friendly, but this action should be dismissed in short order. This is ridiculous.

Meyer, who was the goalkeeper for the university's women's soccer team, died by su***de in March 2022.

How many innocent people is the plea bargain sending to prison?

"The criminal trial is not just endangered. It’s practically extinct. But the purported advantages of plea bargains wither on closer examination, especially for the innocent. Prosecutors, not judges and juries, dictate the outcomes of cases by crafting plea offers on their own that effectively determine defendants’ fates. This creates a terrible quandary for defendants. Take the deal and sacrifice your right to a trial, or roll the dice and potentially receive a much stiffer punishment. What’s gained in this process is efficiency and finality. What’s lost is a public reckoning and a thorough accounting of the facts in an open forum. And what’s unknown is whether the defendant is actually guilty."

Plea bargains have largely replaced the jury trial. Why do so many defendants choose to pass up a chance to prove innocence?

What can be used as probable cause for a traffic stop?

What can be used as probable cause for a traffic stop?

Many DUI arrests simply start as a traffic stop. There are certainly cases in which the police believe someone is intoxicated in advance. But a lot of these stops happen when the police don’t know why the driver made a mistake, but they simply want to pull them over for that mistake and find out
