Sorry for the light posting folks. Nothing happened over the weekend that inspired me to post – it really was a lazy, boring weekend. But these people found some interesting stories to comment on. So go on over and give them a read:

  • Maggie at Of Counsel writes about Eyewitness ID Reform hearings in the Georgia legislature
  • Scott at SJ has a great post about how attorney-client communication is privileged, regardless of how big the sign over a jail phone is.
  • SL & P has this post about a judge that added banishment to an already long sentence for a drug dealer.
  • Here’s an interesting one: Grits reports that the Dallas DA withdrew his request for Joseph Lave to receive the lethal injection because two prior DAs has withheld potentially exculpatory information – polygraphs.
  • CDW’s weekly roundup is here.
  • Happy Birthday Audacity :D
  • Sex Crimes has its usual great coverage and insight, this time on the capital case of Patrick Kennedy – the only man on death row for a crime other than murder.
  • Steve at SexCrimeDefender is back and is asking for your help.

I promise to have a post up later today. Have a good day folks!
