You keep leaving juries out of the equation.
I never said that the case wasn't just about money. It might be, it might be about revenge, it might be about all kinds of things. I merely questioned your suggestion that it is a gross abuse of the civil justice system for the victim to sue because she thought a criminal verdict was too lenient. I've been practicing law long enough to tell that you talking out of personal interest and bias, not any actual sense of or understanding of jurisprudence.

I'll take that bet. Even if I did know them or was otherwise connected, how would these messages posted under an anonymous name benefit the students or myself? Ya' didn't think about that one, did ya'?

Oooooo. Caught me in my own trap. Drat the anonymous nature of teh interwebs.
No I didn't think about that because I couldn't care less about that. Like I said, I was just noticing that your posts suggest a strong personal, rather than academic or theoretical, interest. You write, and argue, like someone who has a dog in the fight. That is all.
