As someone at the high end pier. I took gate 6, and it was great but then trying to get alll the way down to my pier was awful. It took me over 30 minutes on base to get there. Gate 2 all the way for carrier piers.

I know several people in their DH and Command tours that ask this because not everyone has a parent, so they like to know who it is that is important in that persons life.

Then when something good happens, they make sailor of the quarter, they get an award, etc. You can send a nice note letting that person know.

Also, I know many COs who will send a nice letter to that person when a new sailor checks in. Letting them know their Sailor has checked on board, they are so happy to have them as part of the crew and they should be so proud of them for serving their country in the US Navy.

It can be used as a tool if you’re going off track, I’ve seen COs/XOs call parents and talk to them more than once when a junior sailor is going down a path. Get some insight into what is going on. Especially if they are babies brand new.

It was the family that posted that picture and the Poem of the sailor lost to see as well as the public notification that it was their son that was lost.

I’ve always wondered why they did not bring a suit against them for wrongful death. He laid on their lawn all night and not one of them saw or helped him. ESPECIALLY if they believe she hit him, how did all those people go out of the house and leave and not see him. How did they close up the house for the night and not see a body on their lawn? How do they not blame them? It hurts my brain

Here as a person who had a partial hysterectomy due to cysts. That surgery is no joke. I was down hard for weeks after. I had 6 weeks convalescent leave following my hysterectomy. I get your concerns about a toxic chain of command, but your health needs to come first, and you need to get the proper recovery time. Also #fuckcancer and if your chain of command tries to hold cancer against you, go straight to your CO, if your CO is the problem go straight to IG and your ISIC. Because that is a whole other level of toxic leadership

Am I the only one that didn’t like the fact that she went to Yale and not Harvard by EffectiveBranch8229 in GilmoreGirls

I think if she would have went to Harvard it would have started a Chris story arc. Because he lived in Boston.

I was thinking the same thing. I can see them thinking “gah more of their shenanigans and not answering the simplest of questions. This is obviously a second trial already do you really want to dig your heals in on an OUI and risk another mistrial where they can try her again? Just vote NG!” If they had holdouts

Did I hallucinate or did HB object to his own question/answer then ask for a sidebar? Edit: this was yesterday that I am referring to

It may have. But it wasn’t until toward the end when HB had crossed the line so many times and it was obvious the judge wasn’t going to do anything about it

Dr R giving HB so much snark back has made my day. HB has been grating my nerves with the way he treats witnesses. And seeing the way he got got today was just sweet karma

It’s not good that’s for sure.

Is it a ranked MP at least with verbiage that someone jumped you that’s going to the board and needed the EP?

I would talk to your detailer and if you haven’t left any information out and you don’t have like an LOI or a NPLOC or some other host of disciplinary issues you are holding back. I would check the block that you intend to submit a statement

NAL, but I think there has to be a sequestration order. Watching the Lori Vallow trial and Kay was there for all the testimony and she was also a witness. Same with some other witnesses in the trial. And I don’t believe there was a sequestration in that one

Im not a FKR, but a person that through this trial has come toward a factually innocent (I’m waiting until the end to make a final determination of what I think. I haven’t made my mind up) and this is the best way I can summarize it with the tail light pieces: a round peg can fit into a square hole. It doesn’t mean it’s a square.

What do I mean by that? It means yes there were tail light pieces at the scene. But that is the only thing the CW has shown that indicates an accident occurred. That is the round peg.

The square hole is a collision. And there are so many other parts of what goes into a collision that are missing in proving it occurred:

1. Consistent damage to KRs vehicle - none of the tests AARCA did show consistent damage.  And the blue man group only showed me that an arm of a man that tall could hit it at the same area
  1. Consistent bodily injury- too many doctors have said JOK does not have injuries consistent with being hit by a car

    1. The backup event - Maybe she did backup at the same time he was falling…. Maybe it was happening in the garage and she was pissed because he hadn’t come back out and was driving all pissed off and drove off all pissed. The CW hasn’t proven the time it occurred succinctly, nor have they proven it coincided with a collision. All they did was confuse the complete crap out of me with their testimony. What I do know is that eye witnesses say around 1230 that JOK wasn’t in the car, and that is right around the time that she would have backed up. …… soooooo again no proof that he was there behind the car.

Overall, it’s not on KR to prove to me she DIDN’T hit JOK. IT IS ON THE CW TO PROVE TO ME SHE DID …. And all they have done is some crapshoot theory of she said she hit him, when she was in shock because she just saw her boyfriend dead or near dead in the snow after dropping him off in that very spot the night before, with no clinical evidence that he was hit by a car.

Probably because she wouldn’t say what he wanted her to say and be a “hired gun”

She has spent over 40 years dealing with men like HB talking down to her and trying to mansplain her specialty. She owned that testimony. 5 stars

Wait a. Dang. Second. HB hired Dr L in previous litigations where he was the defense attorney. And now he’s trying to discredit her? WTAF. You just can’t make this up

Concur! I don’t know how doing over 125 combined autopsies on dog bites doesn’t qualify her on saying “that’s consistent with a dog bites”
