Tim Masters spent nearly a decade in prison for a murder DNA later proved he didn’t commit. Lt. Jim Broderick, the Colorado police officer who built the case against him, is now charged with perjury and faces prison time:

Gov’mnt at work. :roll:
Some of those counts of perjury seem a little weak to me. But some of the stuff – if the charging document is accurate - means the arresting officer just made up some stuff.
I especially like how several investigations cleared this cop, then another one comes back with eight seperate counts of perjury.
A local news station here has been covering this story for quite some time. In fact, they even interviewed him before he was released from prison. While it certainly doesn’t make up for losing about ten years of his life behind bars, the approximately ten million in combined settlements he received should keep him comfortable for the rest of his life if he uses it wisely.
Cops are trying to make it illegal to tape them…

Screw that. If it weren’t for citizens taping them, they’d be getting away with murder. Literally.
Seeing how they’re more than happy to tape ordinary people (from street cams to the ones on their cars), it’s 100% fair game.
It’s kind of hard to describe this one without giving it away …
All this same-sex marriage hoopla disgusts me. Why?
Because in 1967 they once said in the US: Loving v. Virginia
So how is this any different than: Perry v. Schwarzenegger
And you know what? Back then, 50% of the country was against mixed marriage. So yea… :roll:
Sooner we can get this garbage over with, sooner I can fight for my rights to marry twins. 
Although we shouldn’t be surprised, since Thailand is the official twincest capital of the world.
First giant man eating piranhas, and now we gotta worry about Sharktopus?! I don’t think I’ll ever get into the water again.
I’m not normally a sports kind of guy, but I saw this on the local news and thought I’d share it with you. A total WTF moment.
im sure this has gone more viral now, but i thought i might post it here too:
Wow. That’s an amazingly bitter and disillusioned guy.
well, to be honest… compared to that phil guy, the japanese dude at least stood still and didnt pace around, and appears to know what he is talking about. i dont even know if the phil guys knows what he is spitting out of his mouth (he forgot his masters in communication degree ironically, and constantly looks at his cheat sheet…but that doesnt mean the other guy is reading off something at the camera either)
i do agree that sometimes voting is pointless but i will leave it at that because i wont allow any political discussions here; you are more than welcome to talk about how crazy these people are however
What’s so strange about the phil guy is, aside from some rambling and general disorganization, he stuck to the (fairly complex) speech which felt like it was mostly written ahead of time. It’s a very strange combination of competence (in having a coherent train of thought) and incompetence (the manner of delivery). Usually people screaming like that are either unwell, or drunk, or something, and not really able to have a coherent chain of thought about where their car keys are, much less a stump speech.
That was absent from Mr. Koichi’s (Mr. Toyama’s?) speech, but his speech almost seems like a form of protest or some kind of statement, rather than an actual attempt to run for office. (I mean, I was actually cracking up at times in that speech … it was a real Modest Proposal kinda thing.)

The series was infamous enough to spawn renewals and sequels.
