You know, I hope when Echols and Baldwin kill again, it's Berlinger and Sinofsky they snuff out. Those 2 bastards are utterly fucking despicable.

I couldn't agree with you more.

Not only that, but they are gullible and stupid.   
You can fix a lot of things, but you can't fix stupid.

I don't believe they are gullible. I think they know full well that the WM3 did the crime. They just knew which way to spin it to make themselves a shitload of cash.

Yup - that's what's so despicable.

If they ever kill Berlinger, they'll have to use a long bladed knife to hit any of his vital organs now.

Looking at his latest pictures, Down her in my neck of the woods one would say he has "wintered good".

Where I live, we'd say he has a case of acute biscuit poisoning

OK Farm and Sterling - you must explain. Up here in Canuckistan we're not so bright. ;)

Love it! I'm gonna remember that one.

"Why yes honey, I "wintered good" over the holidays."

I have wintered well (a lil too well) over the years ..

Least some ppl can blame the holidays .. I blame LIFE

Well honey, my ass ain't near as svelte as it used to be. 

Besides, you'd be shocked at how much butter I went through making that lovely turkey & Thanksgiving dinner I posted in the pics. It would make Paula Deen proud.

Oh god, CM, I made a corn casserole thing of Paula Deen's creation for Thanksgiving and it more delicious than most of the desserts. I'm still thinking about it 2 weeks later.

I'm slim fasting right now and holy shit it sucks. I lost 7 lbs in 8 days though!

"Biscuit poisioning."  Funny.

I have a horrible, sinking feeling that this horrid mocumentary is going to win an Oscar.

Hopefully I am wrong, but the Academy seems to like this kind of story. Those doing the voting will not have familiarised themselves with the facts of the case, so they won't know just how biased and untruthful it is.

I am in the middle of watching a fascinating doco right now. It's called Murder on a Sunday Morning. It's about this kid, Brenton Butler who was railroaded by incompetent cops and sent to trial for murdering a tourist in Jacksonville, Florida in 2000.

The difference with this case is the cops did no investigation, the kid was acquitted, the Sheriff apologised to him.
 
After it was all over, the three detectives on the case who admitted on the stand that they didn't do much investigating, were all transferred out of homicide. It was even put to a grand jury to see about charging them, but the grand jury declined.

The real killer was eventually tried.

This documentary won an Oscar. I fear PL3 will be viewed in the same vein. Again, I truly hope to God I am wrong. It will make me sick to my stomach if it wins and glorifies those three killers any further.
