Quote

Florida law doesn't require a witness to help a person in need, so police originally said it wouldn't be possible to charge the teens with a crime.

"We just didn't have any criminal charges," Cantaloupe said. "But we just kept looking."

But police continued to discuss the case with state attorney Phil Archer. Cantaloupe decided to file a misdemeanor charging document under a statute that requires witnesses to report a person's death to authorities, WKMG-TV reports.

What a fucking waste of time this case is. So they think they can pick on these children and get an easy guilty plea.

 

 

Quote

Cantaloupe said he plans to meet with lawmakers to draft legislation that would require witnesses to help a person in distress.

Fuck its like the final Seinfeld episode isnt it. I wonder how they will define distress. And what "help" would be needed to avert these stupid public officials charging someone.

And also in today's news - The Juice is Loose. Hope his ego has been kicked down a bit. Everyone will still love him. Its amazing how the judge gave him a 33 year sentence, and the civil suit for the murders (2 or 1 I dunno) were $33,000,000. The judge should be barred. Countless laywers have stated the Vegas case was a 2 year bit soaking wet.

 

How does this relate to Florida you say. Well OJ will reside in FL. *Thumbs Up!

Sorry what, are you insane, these children are fucking disturbed and twisted. Laughing and filming as a man drowns, are you fucking kidding me OP? Are you one of these people? I worry for your empathic capacity if you think this is okay.

Whats illegal about that?

Sure its not moral, I whole heartedly agree with you there. They are very sick children.

So the DA wants to ruin their future with a criminal charge. Looks to me as though the DA is reaching too far, grabbing at anything and will fling anything to see if it sticks.

It's not illegal perse, but I don't think they should be let go like that, sometimes law and morality don't agree but it's clearly so wrong it can't be ignored.

The "Not calling it in" will be pissed on by any half decent defense lawyer. Especially if the defendants are minors. These charges may be a ploy by the DA to look good in their electorates eyes, so they can get re-elected. Thats honestly my best guess at them grasping at straws.

 

What the children need is a lesson in empathy and compassion.

I wouldn't know, probably, don't live there, you know your country's law better than me but afaik it's true that not calling it in isn't a legit charge or something. It's still sick and this is a clear marker these kids could be trouble later down the line. I have no idea why you're defending them though, probably nothing will come out of it anyway.

I dont even live in the USA, but I know how corrupt the legal system is down there.

 

If these children dont change, they will end up in prison anyway. Probably get busted with a little baggy of weed, break probation and the cycle of incarseration will begin for them.

 

Karma - Just look at OJ's case. The Juice is Loose.

Now do you think I am defending OJ as well?

Again, Karma... its a bitch. Rodney King beating by LA pigs, LA Riots and OJ getting off. Karma's a bitch.

I don't even know why you're posting this to be honest, why do you care in particular about this case? You agree that it's sick and that they will probably end up in prison anyway, you also don't live in that state or even country.??

 

I don't have anything more to say on this subject honestly. *shrug*

Its a very odd case that I found on MSN news. I know I know, Fake News where "journalists" have multiple spelling and gramatical errors in many of their filings.

 

So you are saying, I need to post stuff that is only from where I reside? You have an interesting angle on things.

 

It must be a full moon.

Cheers

Nope, but it's not something earth-shattering you see, so I just don't care enough. Nor do I care to get in an argument about what is or isn't a relevant post.

 

Have a good day though!

Care enough to respond multiple times.
