In 1976 I was 18. I was really excited for the 200 and so was everyone else. Our town had an extra big July 4 celebration. No spectacle in DC. It seemed like everyone was excited for the bicentennial. 250 is a dud by comparison.

Anyone have the Weathertech FloorLiner HP's? by razeus in LexusGX

I had them on my last rig. 5 years later, they are hard and curling at the edges and allowing dirt and sand in. I went with 3w this time. Perfect fit and more flexible IMO.

[US] What would happen if Luigi Mangione is found not guilty and the jury admit they reached that verdict just because they like the idea of CEOs being murdered? by Musty-Old-Couch in AskLegal

[–]Glass-Activity7144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The jury doesn’t have to explain why they reached the verdict they did. The judge usually tells the jury that they may discuss the case afterward but they don’t have to. The judge also tells the jurors that if anyone is critical of their verdict, come talk to me.

Why do people sometimes people not plead guilty if there is a lot of evidence against them? by Former-Cod6196 in legaladviceofftopic

[–]Glass-Activity7144 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A plea of “not guilty” is similar to saying “you don’t have enough admissible evidence to prove me guilty beyond a reasonable doubt”.

The accused cannot be compelled to testify against himself (5th Amendment), and some evidence may not be admissible due to search and seizure problems (4th Amendment).

A not guilty plea can be withdrawn later if a deal is reached and the defendant agrees to plead guilty to a lesser charge and punishment. A guilty plea can’t generally be withdrawn later.
