We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :)
Please help by posting all issues here.
The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.
The woman who spent 16 years on the run with Boston mobster James “Whitey” Bulger pleaded guilty Wednesday to a criminal contempt charge for refusing to testify before a grand jury investigating whether other people helped him as a fugitive.
Catherine Greig, 64, entered her plea in U.S. District Court in Boston without having any agreement or sentencing recommendation from prosecutors. Greig is already serving an eight-year prison term for helping Bulger while he was on the lam.
Sarcasm follows--- It took that long for the in-depth investigation of the good guy who came to the officer's aid and to make sure his gun was really his, lawfully in his possession, and not stolen, and finally to make sure he wasn't really a friend or aquaintance of the meth head!
Man, some people can make any good story into something bad.
Take the same facts except change the cop to an open carry citizen. The CC guy did the right thing helping a fellow citizen. Yeah, it could have gone bad. But that is why we carry because things can go bad.
2921.23 Failure to aid a law enforcement officer. No person shall negligently fail or refuse to aid a law enforcement officer, when called upon for assistance, or in apprehending or detaining an offender, when such aid can be given without a substantial risk of physical harm to the person giving it. http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2921.23
Then you have help either that asks for it. So if one says "grab him" and the second says "shoot him" well, I guess you shoot first and then grab ('cause it takes two hands to grab and you would be able to shoot then).
