Sir Creep 7,070 Posted October 10, 2019 Samuel Mayerson, the L.A. County prosecutor who helped win a conviction against newspaper heiress Patty Hearst and then in a stunning display of compassion urged the court to spare her more time behind bars for her crimes, has died at his home in Rancho Palos Verdes. Later in private practice, Mayerson was at the center of the fantastical Howard Hughes fake will trial, a case so astonishing that the story practically wrote itself as a Hollywood movie script. Active as a judge until late in life, Mayerson died Sept. 30 of natural causes. He was 96. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted November 2, 2019 Robert I. Berdon, a liberal Republican who was the first of Gov. Lowell P. Weicker Jr.’s four appointments to the Connecticut Supreme Court, where the justice was known for keen legal scholarship, a soft-spoken manner and acerbic dissents, died Thursday. He was 89. Berdon was passed over for the Supreme Court by Weicker’s predecessor, William A. O’Neil, in the late 1980s, even though Berdon had seniority on the trial bench, an attribute that once carried weight in judicial promotions. But Berdon, a former state treasurer appointed to the trial bench by Gov. Thomas J. Meskill in 1973, was thought to be too much of an activist for O’Neill, a socially conservative Democrat and observant Catholic. In 1981, Berdon ruled in a case that Connecticut had to pay for abortions for women who could not afford them. Berdon was the author of more than 400 dissenting opinions during his eight years as a justice of the seven-member court. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let YouTube be your friend. You telling me UK drivers are different? It would really only because handful of cases a year at most .I'm an avid consumer of news and I haven't heard of it very often.Admittely it is more frequent than police officers being murdered on duty. One thing as a big consumer of news that I have noticed is more common than police officers dying on duty is police officers being sacked and more often convicted and jailed for having sex with or being sexually inappropriate with female members of the public including vulnerable domestic violence victims whilst either on duty or harassing them after they have used their job to get their contact details! I have no idea if there is a lot of that in the USA but there seems to be in the UK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
