Well America itself is actually 6 time zones with the largest gap being 6 hours between the Eastern time zone and the Hawaii-Aleutian time zone so it could just be that OP

  1. Is dumb
  2. Is being intentionally vague for intrigue/outrage
  3. just lives in a country with one time zone and didn't have to think about it. This could be true even if they live in a big ass county like China or India since they both only recognize one time zone each for their own reason.

This. This is what it really comes down to. Idk how this resulted in her on death row it's way too shaky imo

[-] dylpickles@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Idk I'm just really hesitant to even believe the "statement of facts" because so much of this seems like she was presumed guilty from the start. I mean go back and read the original statement of facts from any death row murder case that ended up overturned to give you a good example. Kirk bloodsworth Like those are almost always written in such a way that supports the outcome of the case in my experience.

Ralph Wright is another one that comes to mind where there's a statement of facts out there that sounds incredibly damning but resulted in his exoneration after DNA testing.

After more reading it still seems like a lot of this is based on blood splatter stuff which is still super weird. It really sounds, the more I read the statement of facts, they took someone who was pretty fucked after what happened and who was already a little crazy and then cross examined the fuck out of her till she was like "I don't remember what happened!"

Which like shit I get that way when my girlfriend questions something I said too much. I have 0 confidence in my own memory.

I mean I agree with the defense like if you're willing to kill why not kill the husband for his life insurance why not idk rob someone. Killing your kids is such a shenanigans way to go about this if the motive is financial struggles.

The big thing that makes me question things is one of the knives in the block having fibers that are supposedly consistent with the intruder's entry point on it. A lot of people take that as she cut it from the inside and put the knife back. I mean that sounds compelling and all but like that's really the only thing here that feels like actually evidence that it may have been a staged crime scene.

Other than that it just seems a lot like they're speculating on blood stain patterns, remarking on a lack of evidence that there was an intruder when a lot of the evidence they expect from an intruder aren't the type of thing that HAS to be there, and they keep referencing these statements on the wound she had that are in my opinion really inconsistent. Like why'd they do the exploratory surgery? Idk the whole thing doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

Jeeeesus Christ talk about a weird case with no evidence leading someone to death row.

That whole trial seems insane like there's literally no evidence she did any of this shit. All they had was like some blood splatters they speculated MIGHT be caused by her raising the knife over her head to stab the kids.

Seriously what the fuck.

Edit: holy fuck have y'all read the signed affidavit from her husband explaining how he had seemingly hired someone to steal his car and rob his house for insurance claims???

I absolutely think you should wait until you secure a new place.

As someone who has done the breakup thing with someone I'm living with, and also broken up with someone after helping them find a new place to live (I used our cats not getting along as an excuse). I can say with no doubt in my mind that I preferred the situation where another place to live was found first. It's better for finances and it's better to give y'all time away from each other.

There are a few and especially imo one fuckin major downside though to moving then splitting: the splitting of the items. Living with someone post breakup you have way more time to start really taking inventory of what is yours. Depending on how cordial y'all are I've also seen it workout such that it COULD result in you remaining friends easier.

That being said, in my experience at least, that being friends by living together depends WAAAYY more on the person in question. Like I lived with an ex and it was fine but I've also lived with an ex and they were fuckin nuts sneaking into my room and looking through my shit all the time.

Disclaimer: My current situation is goofy bc me and the person I'm with are like back and forth on even wanting to date but we're so intertwined in each other's financial situations that like I can't decide if they wanna stay with me bc they actually like me or bc they're so concerned about not being able to afford life.

I do really see both sides to this. At the end of the day though getting away from one another is necessary 99% of the time. If you want to be friends you need time away from one another. Also, even if you've been with them a long time it's nearly impossible to tell how fuckin crazy a breakup will make someone.

I had a seemingly normal loving person i was with for 3 years (the one I helped get her own place that i mentioned earlier) just destroy my room when one of my roommates let her back in after our breakup.

Eastern Time Zone

I'm an Electrical Engineering student with a part time job that's VERY lenient regarding me being on my phone.

With that being said I'd reckon I can be on at least once most hours of the day given i don't sleep a whole lot.

I wonder who did the original design bc I have this on a mug

I'd honestly go a different direction with the burn like white chocolate is to chocolate what sweet potato chips are to potato chips.

If we were to figure out where saltine crackers relate to potato chips in reference to chocolate or general sweets I'd say if potato chips are milk chocolate Hershey's then saltine crackers are toffee.

It would be cool to see some kind of legal or practical protection creators can place on their work that would prevent AIs from being able to use them for training.

That pop up camera on the OnePlus 7 pro.

That thing was cool as fuck. My roommate got the phone and I was VERY jealous even though I had a OnePlus 8T at the time.
