Every Wednesday I'm going to try and bring to you, my faithful readers, legal
headlines to keep your eyes on for the rest of the week ahead. Here are the ones I'm
planning on keeping my eyes on...
Ex IMF Chief Strauss-Kahn
Strauss-Kahn, in case you haven't heard, was recently
arrested on sexual assault charges. As sometimes happens in a high-profile
case, more and more allegations are arising as this case gets more media
coverage. One can't help but wonder how many more charges will be added
against him as this case gets more publicity.
Giants Fan brutal beating outside of LA Dodgers Stadium
On the opening game at the LA Dodgers Stadium a man was brutally beaten for wearing
a Giants jersey. After much advertising and reward offering, 31 year old
Giovanni Ramierez was arrested as being the primary aggressor in the case.
The police are still looking for other suspects that have fled the scene.
Any information you may have about this case should be given to the LA
police department.
The High Court of California and their call for a Prison Population Reduction
The high court of California has called for a reduction in the
prisons' population. The issues on the table are potential violations of
prisoners' constitutional rights, which have to be balanced against concerns
over protecting the people of California.
The case of Christian Choate
This case pulled at my heartstrings as I read about it this morning. This little boy was dead for nearly two years before someone actually realized it. Taken into his father and
step-mother's custody in 2005, this young boy was allegedly beaten and
abused until the end of his days, where his guardians then buried the body
wrapped in garbage bags. I'll be paying particularly close attention to
this case in the hopes at this poor boy gets justice.
