Menendez Brothers Resentenced: Eligible For Parole
I guess it says something about you when after you're murdered it takes six months to get through the list of who was motivated enough to do it.

Menendez Brothers Resentenced: Eligible For Parole
Like I said I don't know much about the original murders, but apart from the fact that this is one of the most infamous crimes in history and one of the more famous stories from the 90s, its relevance to today's landscape is interesting. As bkgd, the LA DA is George Gascon - I'm assuming he has heavy influence on the resentencing (if not being the outright drive behind the resentencing). Gascon was the DA in SF between Kamala and Chesa Boudin. He was criticized by many for his lenient policies wrt bail reform and lower level offenses- policies which Chesa Boudin continued in his tenure. This was in the mid teens when the crime rate started skyrocketing in the City and he caught flak for it. He left for LA for personal reasons and got elected outright as DA (and subsequently re-elected a couple years ago). 30 years under that ground is a long time - if this starts a productive national discussion on what helpful reform looks like in the prison system I'm here for it.

That's heavy. Did they even try to make it look like they didn't do it?

I didn't pay attention to the trial or the media circus surrounding this story but the general feeling was it was an open and shut case. Is it not?

Massive fire in Dallas tonight
That tornado that went through Dallas in Oct 2019, weren't there a bunch of homes in the path of that tornado right there?

Local Breakfast with Character
Quite a limited menu but if you find what you like it's not bad. Edited to add: It's a great neighborhood spot but not worth going out of your way to unless you have kids and want a place to hang out for a bit.

NBA 2024-25 Season Thread
Denver has only played Dallas once after the Gafford trade and it was a loss. Last year before the WCF I thought Dallas matched up better against Denver than Minnesota.

SEC assesses Texas penalties for bottle-throwing
We got some turnabout with one holding that didn't get called when Quinn was in the end zone. That DL's jersey we held looked like a sail full and by. Why?

2024 - 2025 Dallas Mavericks Season Thread - This time we're not happy to just be here.
I don't think Luka's a head case, just immature. The MavsTV thing is great. Unfortunately Austin's not included, so not only do we not get an over the air station to broadcast these games but we can't even stream from MavsTV. Ironically MavsTV is charging $125 per season to stream whereas NBA League Pass only costs $90 to stream (one team only).

Leaks like these are often purposeful. I know, I've read all the Clancy novels.
