  1. Question for all you lawyer types out there like @South Austin and @Lidig8r: How are text messages substantiated in court? Does there need to be some verification provided by the service provider? I could easily fake text messages to appear legit. Also, as is referenced in the affidavit, is it common for the police to be instructing someone what to text to ensnare a suspect? I know that was done with the Scott Peterson/Laci Peterson murder case in SF, where detectives instructed his mistress what to say when she called him (and they were secretly recording the calls). Not that I have situation similar to that. I didn't imply that at all.
  2. My younger daughter's office is at 52nd and Park. She was out of the office on business but the office was locked down and everyone said it was crazy.
  3. Well, here is some background about the texts from the affidavit filed by her. Not sure it is definitive either way. Her side contends his text apology is an admission of guilt and his side contends she was negotiating for a payout. Over text, Bond told the woman he would be in the Frisco area for training related to the upcoming NFL Draft and asked if she would be willing to meet up, per the affidavit. The affidavit says their text conversations then turned to mutual discussions of having sex and engaging in one act in particular, which the victim said she would consider. According to the affidavit, the two eventually met in person on Feb. 4 and began a consensual sexual encounter after drinking wine. During their interaction, the affidavit says, Bond brought up the notion of the act they'd previously discussed in their text exchanges. The affidavit says, Bond told the woman, “alcohol makes me do things” and asked her to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). She refused. (That's not a text) After leaving, the affidavit says the woman texted Bond, saying, "Isaiah you were wrong for that I asked you to stop and you kept covering my mouth. I'm in a lot of pain." Bond responded, "You want a 1000 I'm really sorry!" and "Would that make it feel better," the affidavit states. She responded “What? 5k,” and then “1k? Like you asked me to sign then you offer me money? So you know what you did that’s why you covered my mouth.” While meeting with officers at the Frisco Police Department on Feb. 20, the affidavit states the woman texted Bond again as part of a "pretextual interview," and when the woman asked him for an apology, he responded with "I did..." The woman responded, saying, "apologizing by trying to pay me isn't a real apology Isaiah you really hurt me and I kept telling you to stop," to which Bond replied, "I'm sorry," according to the affidavit.
  4. I haven't followed it very closely. I will look for them.
  5. This sucks so much. I met Bond and really liked him, and i absolutely hate this for him. Of course it’s a he said/she said and I have no idea what really happened, but it’s really sad, regardless. I hope this can get resolved soon and Bond can put this behind him and have a great pro career. What a nightmare!
  6. I got jumped by some two KU fans in Lawrence. The woman was a 40-something, data-entry professional. She was overweight, and wore a brightly-colored polo, Old Navy stretch-jeans and a pink, acrylic fanny-pack, and a KU golf visor, plus giant pink sunglasses that looked like Gucci knock-offs. The man was in his 50's. He had an identity card attached to his short-sleeve button-down, which identified him as a state employee. He was overweight, so he wore straight-legged, medium-rise slacks with no pleats to minimize his bulk. His shirt should have been a size larger, as it pulled around the neck, so he left the top button open, which I thought was a good solution.
  7. Perhaps she feels guilt at having sent her to a camp and feels ultimately responsible for her daughter's death, and this is her way of coping with it. Again, as a parent, I can't imagine the grief I would feel if one of my daughters died in such a horrific way. She is now living in a world that no longer makes any sense. We need to cut her some slack. I once created a video for Texas Parks & Wildlife Department to teach teens about lake drownings and how to avoid them. We found and interviewed parents who has lost teens and put them on. camera. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done and I'm still friends with two of the families. The grief they feel is so profound even today. One of the moms told me that as their children's friends experience their new milestones, like graduation, college marriage, etc, they feel the loss all over again. Love your kids. They can be taken away in an instant.
  8. Here is the actual video. Her daughter died in the flood and she is trying to make it have meaning, I guess. I do feel sorry for her. No mother should have to go through what she has gone through.
  9. "Twin Peaks’ flood relief fundraiser — the results are in, and they’re big. Thanks to the support of loyal guests across the state, the Texas-born brand raised $105,525 in just two days to support families and first responders affected by the recent flooding." Nice when the people of supposedly low moral standing do more to help the people of Texas than our Holier than Thou GOP assholes.
  10. I can only wish to be able to write something that fabulous.
  11. His narrative is definitely different from the MAGA morons in Kerrville city government. He falls more under the greed, hubris and complacency bucket. May the lawsuits forever expose his failures so we can stop with this insane, "he was a heroe"* Facebook narrative. *Typical spelling I see 😡
  12. Well, that escalated quickly.
  13. Dave Campbell's Texas Football just released their first-ever fold-out cover:
  14. Holy heck! Dave Campbell's Texas Football just released their first-ever fold-out cover:
  15. What actually caused the collapse of the Texas A&M bonfire? @DisasterousHistory explains it. He's really good, btw.
  16. No argument there. But something has to change to limit the destruction of our planet. Just got served this charming, fear-based ad on Facebook.
  17. We currently value 'humanity' over sustainabilty. There is nothing sustainable about having 7+ billion people on this planet, especially since so many of them are in places with limited-to-no resources. Coming to the conclusion that too many people isn't an ideal way to sustain life on this planet isn't the incorrect one.
  18. Yes, because, "intelligence with no humanity or morality" has been something we have wonderfully avoided for the last 7,000 years of civilization.
  19. Saw this today: "it's nobody's fault. And if I did have a little girl, I would still send her to Mystic in a minute. Dick Eastland died trying to save the campers he loved. And there's no other place on earth I would want my little girl to be. Where she was loved so much somebody else died trying to save her."
  20. The poor captain kept coming on the intercom every 15 minutes to 'update' us on the situation, although he had no updates.
  21. Apparently, their IT went down. I thought we had it bad 'til i stepped off the plane and saw the people in a long line trying to re-book their flights...at 3am!! Wonder where they all slept? Probably in the chairs.
  22. Hahah, I did most of it on an airplane last night, as Alaska Airlines kept us on the tarmac AFTER midnight for two hours waiting to deplane in Austin. Nightmare.
