    This is the comment I wanted to see. I feel like this case might be used later as an example of what not to do. Yes he is an asshole but thats his brand, take that away and he wont be able to be good on paying. The only way out is him serving life in prison over this but i think thats unprecedented.

      I’m hoping that these kinds of conversations are happening behind closed doors, because I sure don’t see them happening in the media at large.

      I do feel that my line of thought is creeping into the “don’t let perfect be the enemy of good” territory, but I have no dog in this fight, so I think that’s a luxury I can take.

        So i was thinking about this again, and I was wondering… do you think this might be taken to the Supreme Court as it might be infringing on the 4th amendment as an unreasonable seizure? Would that be why they are holding off? Is there any standing on that
