Thank you for your patience, everyone! My "Day 7" update on the Karl Jobst / Billy Mitchell trial is up! We go over some extensive closing arguments, explore weaknesses in Billy's case, and highlight some potentially costly errors by Karl's attorneys.

@srslyberserk That's not even necessarily, like an act of rebellion or anything. I've worked jobs like that. It's policy that, in a robbery, you just give the robbers whatever they want, and do nothing whatsoever to impede them. Otherwise, liability.

@JKristal5 @RainbowOfRed Which is exactly what many of these cops want to do. Riots mean more overtime pay, and more opportunity to wantonly assault "protestor scum". It's like when they evacuate a police station or shopping center which they could have easily defended. They wanted it burned and looted.

I don't wish to make light of rumors/reports of James Somerton ending his own life. But I do want to be clear, the only person responsible for James' situation and his actions is James himself. He's had many opportunities to be a decent person and he chose to flush them all away.

@Jarfdrzaly @TallgirlBigcity There's many reasons why you effectively have to call them sometimes. Theft insurance won't cover anything without a police report. Also, you need documentation. If you find out who did it, and it becomes a court issue, the first question will be "Why didn't you call the police?"
