    What he did with that horrid wife of his is indefensible. He could have taken all the money AFTER she died. Hell he could have taken some while she was alive, but to fire her staff and have her living in a cold place with bed sores all over her body and in constant fear is inhumane. Thank goodness he had a son that did not share his creepiness.

    well even if they can appeal, this ups the chances of evil charlene not getting her grubby hands on the BIG dough, as he will probably die, and the old will will kick in.

    Defense already has their appeal ready, based on the fact that a juror claimed she felt threatened by another juror.

    There was a very thought-provoking piece in the Times Literary Supplement by Niall Ferguson that compares polemics against Kissinger (Hitchens's The trial of Henry Kissinger, for example) with polemics against the Rothschild family. Perhaps the fact that Kissinger is Jewish is a major factor in the almost outsize hate that surrounds him.

    Henry the K tried to pick me up at the Mayfair restaurant on the East Side quite a few years ago. The sound of his gravelly voice hinting at his desire to show me a very good time will haunt me to my dying day.
