Ann has the same view I do on the Peterson Monkey Trial:
"But even Geragos and Sherman would never sneeringly dismiss evidence in a murder trial as 'circumstantial evidence.' Only nonlawyers who imagine they are learning about law from 'Court TV' think 'circumstantial evidence' means 'paltry evidence.' After leaping for the channel clicker for six months whenever the name 'Scott Peterson' wafted from the television (on the grounds that in a country of 300 million people, some men will kill their wives), I offer this as my sole contribution to the endless national discussion."
She also discusses the Demo's propensity to lose, a subject I hope to write about later.
