  1. If I recall, he said he and his family were being pressured by the gangs. He didn't say he was a member.
  2. He literally has no lips. It is weird:
  3. You missed his point. We know the legal remedy of failure to provide due process in a criminal case. We really don't know what the remedy is here. Again, what are you wanting the judge to do? I sense this judge will absolutely order someone to jail for contempt. I believe it is coming. It is SCOTUS that worries me.
  4. The best the judge can do at this juncture is hold people's feet to the fire to provide information. Get them to testify in court, if they refuse, jail them to contempt. If they refuse to answer questions, jail them for contempt. If an attorney insists on making motions to delay things or confuse things after the judge denies them, jail them for contempt. If the evidence shows the administration is making no effort to comply with the judge's order to attempt to get him back, jail officials for contempt.
  5. Correct. That and they now drop people pretty aggressively.
  6. To be clear, I was just quoting Rex. I didn't take any offense at all. To answer your question, hard to say from what we know. It could be the other attorney no longer wanted to handle the case or didn't feel prepared. It could be they found a better fit. It could be a financial issue. Or it could be because of a disagreement on strategy.
  7. People know the phrase "innocent until proven guilty," but don't think about it much on a deeper level or truly understand what it means, as is demonstrated in this thread. People do not understand bond, its purpose, or the legal requirements around, as is demonstrated in this thread. And people still say incredibly ignorant and stupid stuff like "He clearly did it, is clearly a murderer, is clearly the aggressor and @BabaYaga’s use of “legal cunt” is the perfect descriptor of most in here. Yes, this guy absolutely is guilty until proven innocent, regardless of what you think. That is the way society works when 30 people watched you stab a guy in the heart." What you think is "known and obvious" obviously isn't.
  8. Yes it is. And I still use it because I'm lazy. Also, I'm really annoyed that Intuit purchased Mint and then killed the service in favor Credit Karma (which in no way replaces the functionality of Mint).
  9. It is an annuity, so I assume the answer to that question is: income
  10. That is stupid and you're stupid for thinking it.
  11. Pre-trial detention has a very limited purpose. It should not be and is not the default of the legal system in part because pre-trial detention is functionally identical to imprisoning someone without a trial. If your view of "danger to society" was adopted, everyone accused of a potentially violent crime or of crimes like theft would be subject to jail without trial. Here, the circumstances of this incident don't implicate a general danger to society while out on bond. This appears by all accounts to be an isolated incident with a particular individual in a particular setting. His "admission" to the crime came with a pretty important caveat that he was defending himself AND an expression of concern for the well being of the victim. No one is calling you names. No one is attacking you. We are simply explaining the law. And we are explaining why your argument isn't and should be a basis to jail him prior to any conviction. Stop being so sensitive. Man up.
  12. Irrelevant. He hasn't been found guilty. And he also told the police it was self defense and expressed concern for the victim, which at least partially tracks from eye witness accounts that he was pushed prior the stabbing. This is a tragic case. He will likely go to jail for a long a time. But nothing here justifies up rooting our most sacred legal principle.
  13. They have not filed anything, so the government is now in clear violation of that order.
  14. Government has another 40 minutes to file its update for today.
  15. Maybe they were black bagged and deported to a foreign prison? We can only hope.
  16. You had to go and ruin it.
  17. Fuck the media: Fucking illegally kidnapped from this home and sent to prison. He wasn't "mistaken" anything. He wasn't merely "deported". He was sent to fucking prison. Fuck everything.
  18. Absolutely nothing.
  19. There is no legal mechanism to make Trump return him. SCOTUS already gave that out. It also took away the only mechanism to prevent this shit. You're whistling past the graveyard. You were confident that Roberts would respect the law, that a legal mechanism exists to get him home, that he would be returned home. All of that is wrong. There is no law. There is no remedy. Only a dark van and a gag.
  20. I guarantee Trump asked him to say that.
  21. I don't know about that. In the update on Sunday the government's witness said: "However, I also understand that Abrego Garcia is no longer eligible for withholding of removal because of his membership in MS-13 which is now a designated foreign terrorist organization." That sounds like they plan to say he can't come back anymore or to deport him again the moment he returns (if he ever returns).
  22. @Ojo Rojo administration says it will make no effort to return him and has no obligation to. Still have faith?
