Ron Glass will be in S.H.I.E.L.D., FWIW.
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Perception:
If someone else pulls a gun on you, and in the struggle for it, it goes off and kills the person who drew the gun in the first place - shouldn't that be Self-Defense, not "10-20 for Manslaughter"?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Presuming you didn't just break into the gun wielder's home, yes.

Okay, that's what I thought. I mean, plenty of other charges the guy would have been ripe for, but manslaughter didn't sound right to me.

Fanwank: his lawyer settled for manslaughter in the plea deal. I know of at least one RL case of a guy who pleaded manslaughter in a drug deal gone wrong. He could have gotten self-defense, but they had him dead right on the drug dealing part of the crime. That would have had a longer sentence than manslaughter. Not the same situation here, but they might have dropped some of medical specific charges in return for the manslaughter plea. That would have given him slightly more employment options when he finished his sentence. His doctors license is done, but if he is not convicted of malpractice or medical fraud, he might be able to work in some medical capacity in the future.

Did anyone watch Broadchurch last night on BBCA? I DVRd it, but haven't gotten to it yet.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I've seen the whole thing. I enjoyed it. The female lead is especially excellent.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I saw the whole thing as well and while I don't think I share Dana's response, I thought it was very well done. I didn't enjoy it, I thought it was incredibly depressing.

Oh, it's totally depressing.
