A conviction on every charge in the indictment would require a mandatory 15 years in prison with the possibility of a life sentence.

We'll find out more as the case is heard, but it sure sounds like there's a lot of evidence of malfeasance.

Wrong. Dems are not Repubs.

If you'll revisit my comment, you'll see that I said:

I’ve been calling contemporary dems Reagan-era repubs for some time now.

Modern repubs are lunatic far-right nuts. Modern dems have the policies of Reagan-era repubs.

McClain’s mother, Sheneen McClain, declined via email to comment Friday. In March she celebrated the original sentence handed down by the judge as she left the courtroom that day, raising her fist in the air.

Imagine how she feels.

My father told me he wanted to make USB flash drives of all the scanned and digitized family photos and other assorted letters and mementos. He planned to distribute them to all family members hoping that at least one set would survive. When I explained that they ought to be recipes to new media every N number of years or risk deteriorating or becoming unreadable (like a floppy disk when you have no floppy drive), he was genuinely shocked. He lost interest in the project that he’d thought was so bullet proof.

As an alcoholic, I initially agreed. Don't waste a liver on me. Then this:

Even pleas for a living liver transplant, with Allan offering to be her donor, were not entertained.

I haven't heard about her in about a year. She may have finally faded out (we can hope).

Women and girls over 12 are banned from schools, and prevented from sitting most university entrance exams. There are also restrictions in the work they can do, with beauty salons being closed, as well as being not being able to go to parks, gyms and sport clubs.

Men have to be pretty insecure to treat women this way. Cowards.

I opened this post in News last night but had to put my phone down. Now I went to comment and it has been removed, so I’m reposting to Politics. Apologies if someone already did so. Haven’t had a chance to get on Lemmy until now.
