Still, if the system effectively forces you into putting a guy to death with only circumstantial evidence, I'm uncomfortable with that. I recently heard a story about a guy whose name is similar (not the same!) to a wanted criminal in Chicago. So far he's spent 4 nights in jail over 2 occasions because he's been stopped for traffic violations which he wasn't even ticketed for. Of course that's meant missed business meetings, etc. There has to be a better way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:139828 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
