    Ha. Good point Fiddy Eight. Who'd you rather be a father to- Trayvon or Australian baseball dude...And I'm guessing - a lawyer told his client to make up the crack story in order to reduce the sympathy for a WW2 vet. Wrong. It backfired- and has only resulted in a furthering of resentment...What did Shakespeare say about lawyers?

    I don't think someone with a law degree would be that stupid. More like it was the first thought that popped into that little punk's twisted mind.

    Well, it took a while for that part of the story to pop up. And the story seems a little elaborate for a hoodlumizzle... Thinking " he offered me money for sex" bs would have been their only lawyered up spoonfed hope.

    If you want to see how stupid two lawyers can be, just take into account of Teddy Kennedy's story of the Chappaquiddick incident and what his lawyer told him to say about it in his statement. Yes lawyers can be THAT stupid.

    Actually, they still do. The last execution was carried out in 2010. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for them to sentence two 16-year old thugs to death, though. After all, they're just children. :rolleyes: :insane:

    Maybe they can wait until they are both 18 to do them.

    That won't work because the news media will keep showing photos of them when they were 16.
