John Kloehr Posted December 9, 2024 Share Posted December 9, 2024 Excellent verdict for a sad situation. I was worried after the jury deadlocked on the greater charge. The defense was right to call for a mistrial (denied) as the jury would now heard evidence and theories for two different crimes and apply testimony for both to the lessor charge. Would also have been valid grounds for appeal. Also now hear the jury could hear the protest chanting on the streets below from the deliberation room. The jury finally made the right call but some jurors wanted to find Penny guilty of the greater charge. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitey James Posted December 10, 2024 Share Posted December 10, 2024 Being that I don't watch the "news", I was not aware of this situation until yesterday. Watched the video of the incident and it is easy to play armchair quarterback with what he "should have done". I am sad that the guy died but I don't think the intent was to do harm but to restrain the guy. Honestly, when he got him to the ground, the other two guys should have helped so he did not need to maintain the rear naked choke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokin Gator SASS #29736 Posted December 10, 2024 Share Posted December 10, 2024 If the deceased and Penny were both black all of the people who are outraged today would have been just going about their daily business since the day the incident occurred.

I thought there were such a thing as "watchable news", and 2. if I had a TV that didn't have all the news, game shows, and screaming idiots locked out, thanks to an acquaintance who knows how to do these things, and 3. If i subscribed to a news paper or other print media. My TV is solely for watching DVDs which I mostly get for free through my local library. (They have a lot of in-house DVDs and belong to a national library lending network. Thousands and thousands of titles.) or my Prime account from Amazon. My radios are all tuned to local news and I get precious little news that comes from out of the north central Arizona region...and a lot of that is crap.

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted December 11, 2024 Share Posted December 11, 2024 I find out about world happening mostly right here. I can hit the web for more info if I need to know (it's amazing how little I NEED to know.) or find interesting (a bit more, but still not much). My life is calmer (unless I'm driving in all the new traffic) and my BP is lower. I have fewer head aches and sleep better, too. Try it!

Rip Snorter Posted December 11, 2024 Share Posted December 11, 2024 Have to agree. When we moved to the ranch years back, we completely dropped TV. A blessing, and our adult kids have done the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
