What is your guess about th percentage of time police testimony in a criminal cases contain lies?

I think OJ was found not guilty because the defense caught the police telling lies. I've run across this with other cases too. I'm wondering if everyone thinks the police lie all the time or if mots think they tell the truth most of the time or if everyone thinks they tell the truth all the time and think I'm wrong.What is your guess about th percentage of time police testimony in a criminal cases contain lies?
1. I think the police rarely lie in court, unless they are on trial themselves.. They are trained to spew facts.





2. I think O.J.'s defense attorneys used trick tactics to make it appear that the police were lying. Remember, this was the best defense team money could buy, and he paid them to tie up the court and confuse the jury into an acquittal.What is your guess about th percentage of time police testimony in a criminal cases contain lies?
i thing the police tell the thruth but when they fail to tell the whole truth on matters that relate to every one in my opion i would say most of them lie about.60. percent to get an indicement that is my opion have saw this done by them on poor people as well i also have worked in legal places as well ? based on fact/
50 percent of the time
Most police officers lie, especially in hearings where they are not sworn in such as traffic citations. Unfortunately they almost always call in a backup so its their word x2 or 3 against your one.


85-90%
Sadly, about 50% of the time.
I think 20% of the time knowingly, and 40% unknowing


OJ was guilty and they wanted to do what they had to do to convict him. I dont agree with what they did.. just was it..

How can i use up 2 cases of cranberry sauce going out of date soon.?

i have a restaurant in the philippines but they seem to find it bland and generally dont like it out of the bottle. any ideas or recipes to finish a few bottles off?How can i use up 2 cases of cranberry sauce going out of date soon.?
If it was me I would blend it in a blender and add equal parts of orange juice and make frozen rum or vodka sex-on-the-beach drinks in a promotional special and unload them all in one night.


My experience in the bar and restaurant business is if it is in the inventory and is not moving, the best way to get it moving is to involve alcohol.


Most people that look for alcohol bargains are alcoholics and once they have one they will drink till they drop if you let them. You have a social and civil responsibility to your customers but that does not mean you cannot get what you can without letting them get soused.


This has been a time honored selling technique which even before I got sober, I used but didn't understand.


People in recovery will stay in recovery if they want to. people that are still drinking will continue to drink until the pain get so bad they quit.


So make hay while the sun shines.How can i use up 2 cases of cranberry sauce going out of date soon.?

I would make cranberry chutney and give for gifts.


But you can only use so much.So share with friends or your local food pantry.
Do you serve anything in a sweet and sour type cooked sauce? My mother made this awesome sauce many years ago with cranberry sauce. She mixed a can of cranberry sauce with tomato sauce (about 8 cups) and let it cook and meld together. She used this sauce with stuffed cabbage rolls and cocktail meatballs, among other things.
Donate it to a local food bank, rather than wasting it. You might use some with a pork or ham roast or even turkey or chicken, goes well with cranberry.

It was proposed with all 12 amendments proposed in the Bill of Rights. (Though one of the two not ratified was later ratified as the 27th amendment, there still remains one that has not been. Though it simply relates to district apportionment.)

How can I use old contact cases? Or what should I do with them?

I've worn contacts since 3rd grade. Recently, the brand of contact solution that I use has been packing contact cases in with the solution. So, I have TONS of contact cases in my bathroom closet. What do I do with them? Should I throw them away, recycle them? Or are there any other creative uses out there?


Thanks!How can I use old contact cases? Or what should I do with them?
If you have extra sell them to people for like 25cents,50 or 1 dollar. you can make some money then you wont have so many.How can I use old contact cases? Or what should I do with them?
LOL... I love this question... I think there are only two creative ways to use those contact cases.


1. Use it to hold your coins


2. Keep mints in them so you don't have crushed mints in your purse








The only other way to use the contact cases is to hold contacts! That's about it...
If they are clean, you can take them into school and give them away to friends (who maybe don't use that brand of solution). They might have a re-cycle number on the bottom, if so, they can be recycled assuming they accept that kind of plastic where you live.
LOL, a contact case may also make a great water/food dish if you have a very miniature...gerbil ?

What court has jurisdiction over murder cases?

I'm making up an example of a murder for this project that I'm doing, and I need to know what courts have jurisdiction over murder cases.


Thanks so much.


:]What court has jurisdiction over murder cases?
The circuit court of the criminal division tries the cases. If appealed, then on to the supreme court.What court has jurisdiction over murder cases?
In the United States, generally it is the court which has general criminal jurisdiction for the State in which the murder occurs. Since each state ';names'; its courts, differently you can't get a positive answer without the state where your murder will occur.
Normally a State court would take jurisdiction over a murder case unless it occured on Federal land. Then it would fall to the Agency responsible for the area the murder took place ie; Military installation, Post office, Federal Court house etc.


Usually the FBI will take jusisdiction in a non military installation. The FBI will also take murder cases on tribal lands, although the investigations will also include tribal police, BIA and FBI. Hope this helps.
In Canada, it's the Superior Court that has jurisdiction over murder cases.
The Court in the area that the murder either occurred or the body was found. So, if a murder occurred in Phoenix, Maricopa County Superior Court would have jurisdiction. If the murder occurred on the Gila Indian Reservation, the US District Court in Arizona would have jurisdiction.





If the murder occurred in a plane, traveling between Arizona and California, but occurred while the plane was over Arizona, it would be an Arizonan Court, probably a federal Court as it involved a federally regulated entity.
A murder case is actually started in the Court of Common Pleas (PA) in the area where the defendant is charged. In some cases, it could be held in a Federal Court. From there, if the defendant is found guilty, it is appealed to the next higher court. Before it is appealed to the higher court, the lower court ruling is reviewed to determine if there is merit to hold a new hearing.

  • Is there a web site where I can find real and intellectual property law cases?

    I have an assignment where I need to write two briefs from two separate cases. One that deals with real property and one intellectual property. I am wondering if there is web site where I can read cases pertaining to the above mentioned cases. Thanks.Is there a web site where I can find real and intellectual property law cases?
    For physical property cases, this site might interest you:


    http://www.garretwilson.com/education/in鈥?/a>


    It would probably only take a short internet search to find the full text of the cases you want to brief. I haven't looked through the whole page, but I don't think this includes any IP cases.





    For intellectual property, perhaps you could look here:


    http://www.ladas.com/Patents/USPatentHis鈥?/a>


    This is a discussion of patent law, and prominent cases are placed in bold text. Again, an internet search will likely turn up the full text for many.
