Has there been any scholarly work done on the rates of people seeking to legally marrying their pets or favorite trees in the aftermath of Obergefell?
What about roller coasters?

Don't tell Don jr.
That was my first thought ("next headline will be that it was hunted back to extinction").

Nicholas was charged with one count of first-degree assault and armed criminal action. Joseph was charged with one count of unlawful use of a weapon.
Why are neither of them being charged with attempted murder?

As someone studying for the bar exam I can tell you I have no **** idea. With each passing day my understanding of the law diminishes.

My only thought (hope?) is that these are just sort of 'entry level' charges to get each suspect booked and into the CJS. Because with five people (four minors) in the car downrange, there are a lot of other charges that can be piled on there. I mean, a lot.

He got charged under MO code 565.050 Assault, first degree...
565.050. 1. A person commits the crime of assault in the first degree if he attempts to kill or knowingly causes or attempts to cause serious physical injury to another person.

2. Assault in the first degree is a class B felony unless in the course thereof the actor inflicts serious physical injury on the victim in which case it is a class A felony.
A cursory glance at Missouri state law didn't immediately find an "attempted murder" provision...

If I learned anything from Chappelle's Show, it's that anything below the knee is not attempted murder.

I don't even know what to say about this story, other than it's **** horrific.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/crime-cour ... n-n1066511
Federal prosecutors have filed multiple charges against a 23-year-old South Korean man accused of running what they call the world's "largest dark web child porn marketplace."

The now-shuttered English-language site, called "Welcome to Video," contained more than 200,000 unique videos or almost 8 terabytes of data showing sex acts involving children, toddlers and infants, according to the 18-page criminal indictment unsealed here Wednesday, and processed 7,300 Bitcoin transactions worth more than $730,000.

I'm not going near the subject matter but I want you to know I did a full-on Nipper head tilt for like 15 seconds after reading this.

Every one involved in that site should be castrated with a rusty spoon, and then fed to pigs while alive.
