That makes sense. It's a plus for the state as well, since it's not like they're going to let him make bail. Any time up to the trial he'll just spend in jail

they got unbiased panels for Nikolas Cruz and Daniel Penny, it'll be fine

snow

12:19

yeah, but I think those were capital cases

snow

12:19

jury selection is different for capital cases

windyMagician

12:19

Daniel penny was not a capital case

@windyMagician: I would say depends the prison, I have met a lot of golden spoon children who could not handle the strictness of the military and lack of freedom. So many attempted suicides. I am sure prison is much worse

snow

12:20

ohh the subway guy, my b

windyMagician

I do not believe they found a truly un-biased case for Daniel Penny. Finding someone in new york who hasn't been in a subway cart while criming is happening? Idk the statistic of those who witness or are victims of crimes on subway carts but I am sure it is very high

windyMagician

12:21

that's a good thing. juries should be biased in favor of the defense.

Unrepentant-Caucasian

Honestly, that would be an incredible arc. Goes to NYS prison, gets taken under the wing of some geriatric wiseguys, then gets out and re-starts the Mob

snow

12:21

in theory yes, the defense did really good with that jury

windyMagician

12:22

we have a presumption of innocence in this country, time to start acting like it

@windyMagician: I can agree with that, makes it more of a jury of peers if they have been in the same shit show

snow

12:22

YES, im so tired of sitting through jury selection and people not understanding that a jury trial isnt an argument between two sides. its one side trying to prove without a reasonable doubt that someone did what they are accused of

unrelated but my gym crush date was fucking weird. had a great convo, didn't hug me at the end tho, then says he'll text me and doesn't? girl I'm too old for ghosting

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:24

If he wanted to he would girl

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:24

Don't give him the benefit of the doubt

windyMagician

12:24

why we're still acting like this at nearly 30 years old I do not know

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:25

Although I can respect the not hugging part after a gym date. When I'm finished with lifting, I have an incredibly potent odor that could overpower a delicate female

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:26

So I try to keep my distance

windyMagician

12:26

oh it wasn't a gym date it was dinner lmfao

windyMagician

12:26

but he was my crush from the gym

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:27

Understood. His behavior is unforgiveable and you should egg his car.

@windyMagician: did you approach your gym crush you they approach you?

windyMagician

12:27

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:27

12:27

Unrepentant-Caucasian

12:27

windyMagician

12:27

I need to add some important context here: he used to date my ex's coworker
