@immatthewj on the OUI charges: she was drinking with cops, driving a cop to a another cop's house with a drunken party, maybe it should have been their job to not let her drive?
Movie/film suggestions.
While this is of course a forum for the discussion of all things audio/hi-fi and music, pretty much all of us are also lovers of movies, the enjoyment of which is effected by the reproduction of the sound they contain (with the exception of silent movies 
).
I've been focused on David Lynch movies since his death, but with current events so much a part of our lives at the moment, I plan on re-watching a movie I’ve seen only once, and years ago. That movie is:
The Madness Of King George. Apropos, no?

This has been discussed by some of the analysts, @gano , and they have surmised that this may be why the jury may be having problems reaching consensus on the OUI. Of course, this is all conjecture on their part, including on what actual charge the jury is having problems with. All the analysts are going by is the questions that the jury has submitted to the judge. On Ma. and specifically on this trial: at least they have allowed cameras. I have too much time on my hands and I do not use it productively so therefore I have been watching podcasts of coverages of trials that I find interesting. Prior to the Karen Read trial, I was following the trial of Richard Allen (down the hill murders) in Delphi, In., and in that one the judge allowed NO cameras. Therefore, all that was available there were the reports from the podcasters who were able to get in and take notes, and Judge Gull designed the rules pertaining to them getting in to be extremely rough/draconian. There were podcasters who seemed to feel that a miscarriage of justice was going on, and without getting into all the details, that may or may not have occurred, but the thing is--no cameras so all we have to go on is the opinions and notes of the podcasters. (And Nancy Grace, of course, but I find no value to her obnoxious bellowing.) So as I typed, at least cameras are allowed in this trial. And I will also say that the more of this stuff I watch, the happier I am that I personally have never been seriously entangled with the legal system. |
