Speaking of dominitrices:

DEDHAM, Massachusetts (AP) -- A dominatrix was acquitted of manslaughter Monday in the death of a man who prosecutors say suffered a heart attack while strapped to a replica of a medieval rack.

Prosecutors said Asher confessed to police, but the alleged confession was not taped.

Investigators testified they did not save their notes.

Asher's lawyer, Stephanie Page, said there was nothing to prove Lord was even dead -- no body, no blood, no DNA.

During his closing argument to the jury, prosecutor Robert Nelson put on a black leather mask with a zippered mouth opening and re-enacted the bondage session.

With both hands, he reached back and clutched the top of a blackboard as if strapped to the rack. Then he hung his head as if dead.

Asher's lawyer objected, and the judge agreed.

"That's enough Mr. Nelson," Judge Charles Grabau said. "Thank you for your demonstration."

yeah, I can't believe they went through with this case. There was nothing to prove the guy was even dead. And who doesn't cover their ass with a grisly dominatrix/murder confession? The whole thing stank. I am amazed that the motions to dismiss were denied. Now, even if they find the dude, can't they NOT try her again 'cause of double jeopardy?

And who doesn't cover their ass with a grisly dominatrix/murder confession?

People who are lying because they want to see the kinky freak locked up?

Perzactly.

The whole thing was just stupid. (speaking as someone who saw updates every morning on the local news)

After law school I went to grad school and met Perkins.

That last bit was the best part, right?

Heh, now I want to see a baliff say "Bring out the gimp" during a trial.

Was it "lock up the freak" or "she's a freak, she must have done it!"?

Not that it matters much to the freak, but the first a little more hate-y, the second shading toward ignorant.

My first thought reading that was "What does a graphic editor have to do with that?". My second thought was "duh".

My bandmate just called to say he was having a reaction to some medicine he was just prescribed and is on his way to the hospital. He wanted to make sure somebody knew where he was. He sounded pretty freaked out so I called our ER doc friend and she called and talked to him. She said he'd been given something with codeine and is having a pretty common reaction to it. She thinks they'll probably just evaluate him, prescribe something different, and release him.

So, some -ma that that's what happens and it's not something scarier would be great right now.

Thanks dog for having a doctor in the family.
