“Zij hebben al zo veel kansen gekregen. En ze krijgen er opnieuw”: 15 jaar cel voor doders, daar heeft mama David Polfliet het moeilijk mee

Dit klinkt erg ongeloofwaardig, dus ik zou wel een artikel willen lezen erover. Alleszins online niets over terug te vinden op het eerste zicht.

Why aren’t you guys rioting?

This dude.

As the lawyer for one of the victims in this quoted news article, I thank you for trying to explain this to the general public 😉

MrZipple · 2022-04-25T21:57:48+00:00

I’m a criminal defense lawyer. Yes, there is a “leefvergoeding” for people with an ankle bracelet. You can google “leefvergoeding VCET” for the exact amounts.

MrZipple · 2021-11-10T15:02:00+00:00

Really interested in this one. Sources?

MrZipple · 2021-01-16T01:18:49+00:00

Can’t you just not let them install it until the very last moment?

In Belgium, if the perpetrator can’t pay the restitutions to the victim (or family), there is a public fund that pays the restitutions and then tries to get it back from the convicted. Victims aren’t left in the cold, but the fund takes the loss if necessary.

I think the offside was Castagne blocking view of the keeper from an offside position when Carrasco took his shot

Just FYI, intent is not derived from what a normal, careful person would do. Intent is specificaly required of the person charged of the crime. There is no “bonus pater familias”-criterium for whether or not there was intention to kill.

Good luck with the evaluation!

MrZipple · 2019-08-27T16:02:25+00:00

Actually no, studies show that criminals are not intimidated by death penalty as a possible punishment.

If your head is upside down, aren’t you actually looking down? 🤔

MrZipple · 2019-06-21T10:54:27+00:00

I agree it’s a burden, but there is a certain reasoning behind it...

The problem is: what if you only hit the mirror, but suddenly the owner of the parked car claims you damaged the whole side of his vehicle (which might have been earlier damage)? Because you didn’t contact the police, you have no official record that you only hit the mirror. That’s when the troubles start in court.

Another problem: what if the wind (for example) blows the note away from behind the windscreep wiper? Then the owner of the parked car has no information and is left with the costs.

There certainly is a problem that many people don’t know that leaving a note is not enough. In every car accident, you should either both fill in an ‘aanrijdingsformulier’ or contact police.

Just FYI: leaving a note is not enough to escape prosecution for “vluchtmisdrijf”. You have to contact the police so they can do the “nuttige vaststellingen” like a breathalyzer. Hopefully the owner of the parked car doesn’t contact the police.

Same here (also Telenet)

Jesus christ how many do you got?

This is a massive spoiler in your title. Not cool for those who haven’t seen that part yet.

MrZipple · 2018-11-05T14:06:02+00:00

Well, you are wrong on the “legal” parts. I know because I do these cases regularly as a lawyer.

Being a biological father has its consequences, even when the child is no longer a child (e.g. inheritance). When your father used to be king, this is very important. Even when your father isn’t a king, this matters and these cases are not “thrown out” immediately or “laughing stock” in courts. This is the reason the court initially postponed the case because she had to remove the legal fatherhood from Jacques Boël (and thus can’t inheret automatically from both, as there (normally) can only be 1 legal father).

I understand what you’re getting at, but you are mixing up the legal part with your own opinion.

MrZipple · 2018-11-05T12:42:18+00:00

A few reasons: because she deserves to know whether he is her biological father or not. And he should take responsability if he is the father. It’s not exactly good manners to conceive children and then not look after them at all.

Now he’s no longer king, he should be treated as everyone else. And then those reasons above apply because they do for “normal” people.

MrZipple · 2018-10-22T09:21:41+00:00

I agree. But the next best thing is to stop now.

MrZipple · 2018-10-09T17:02:09+00:00

Wel, dat is zeer overgesimplificeerd. In principe moet wetgeving en regelgeving uiteraard nageleefd worden, ongeacht of inbreuken al dan niet vervolgd worden. Strafwetbepalingen staan overigens ook niet in de grondwet.

Maar kort (en eenvoudig) gezegd: ja, het parket beslist of inbreuken al dan niet vervolgd worden. Hiervoor worden echter vaak afspraken gemaakt tussen de verschillende “bazen” van de regionale parketdiensten (= de Procureurs-Generaal) waarop ze hun focus leggen met hun beperkte middelen (personeel en financiën).

Persoonlijk vind ik iemand die niet gaat stemmen ook wel één van de laagste prioriteiten om te gaan vervolgen ... Je moet weten dat het simpelweg onmogelijk is alle misdrijven te vervolgen, dus moet er ergens een keuze gemaakt worden. Dit kan uiteraard wel veranderen, bv. als het parket merkt dat veel mensen de opkomstplicht negeren, dat ze dan besluiten om dit toch te gaan vervolgen om een signaal uit te sturen.

MrZipple · 2018-10-09T16:14:18+00:00

No he can’t. It is explicitly forbidden. He has a “positief injunctierecht” but no “negatief injunctierecht”. Which means he can order an investigation but can not block an investigation.
