I would very much like to know that.. while Acosta was the prosecutor, I could not find the name of the sentencing judge.. must be public but no luck finding it..


Conviction and sentencing (2008–11)
In June 2008, after Epstein pleaded guilty to a single state charge of soliciting prostitution from girls as young as 14,[23] he was sentenced to 18 months in prison. Instead of being sent to state prison as are the majority of sex offenders convicted in Florida, Epstein was housed in a private wing of the Palm Beach County Jail. He was able to hire his own security detail and was allowed "work release" to his downtown office for up to 12 hours a day six days a week.[24] He served 13 months before being released for a year of probation. While on probation he was allowed numerous trips on his corporate jet to his homes in Manhattan and the U.S. Virgin Islands.[25]

At release, he was registered in New York State as a level three (high risk of reoffense) sex offender, a lifelong designation.[26][27] Epstein has been a registered sex offender since 2008.[2]

I think we have another Darwin winner here!!!

WHY? WHY? WHY? You can't make this stuff up.

Woman sues Samsung for $1.8M after cell phone gets stuck inside her vagina.

An Albuquerque woman is suing Samsung for $1.8 million after she necessitated medical attention after inserting her cell phone inside her vagina and was unable to retrieve it for 96 hours. Salma Briant, 39, claims her medical bills at the University of New Mexico Hospital amount to $1,168,000 and that she has suffered from severe psychological distress because of the whole ordeal. Briant said she first inserted the cell phone inside her vagina as a dare from one of her friends but quickly realized that the phone would not come out.

Attorney Jim McAfee's claims his client was forced to undergo a cesarean section to remove the cell phone because of the atypical shape of her pelvis and had no insurance at the time.


A Samsung spokesman said they would not comment on this case.


"I wanted to see how it would feel to put my cell phone on vibration mode inside of me, just for fun, but it soon turned out to be a nightmare," she told judge Andrew Peterson in tears. "Samsung is definitely at fault here as they offer no warning about the dangers and potential risks during the insertion of their products inside their clients male or female body cavities or g*****ls" Salma Briant's lawyer, Jim McAfee said in court.

I wager she v**es for the left!

I wonder if she irons her underwear while wearing it.

I apologize, the article did not come out and say that the Russians k**led him... I guess I jumped to conclusions. My line of thought now.... if the Clintons did not have him k**led and the Russians did not have him k**led..... who did? What was the motive? To be honest, if the Russians "jumped on the opportunity to smear K**lary" they could have saved their energy. You see, people have just dropped dead or committed suicide in imaginative ways around the Clintons for many years, no one even took notice or much notice when another died. The major thing that did k**lary in was her direct insult to American Citizens, calling us "deplorable" coupled with B******i. Yes, I am aware that she was cleared on the B******i incident, but for those who have friends or relatives in the military.... it was one of the final straws.

Again, my apology for not rereading the article before I posted.

I don't know about Hug but I'm all for it. I don't think we need an EPA, or at least one which has gotten out of control, to handle that problem. I think our local municipalities have done a great job for the most part in keeping our air and water clean. Unfortunately, as far as clean air is concerned, we have about 90% of the world polluting our air and they show very little interest in cleaning it up or changing their habits. If you could think of a way to keep China from poisoning our air, I'd be all for that too.

Undermining decades of progress in banning chemicals and industry polluters?

I flat can't understand lifting bans on chemicals that the work has been done in regard to proving the harm they cause. The chemical that is so hard on bees has other suitable replacements, it isn't even as if there is nothing and the damage to farmers would be irreparable. Bans are being lifted on chemicals that caused harm that has been being reversed.

How about lifting a ban on the coal industry polluting rivers and streams, what is the purpose for that, so they can dump pollution without worrying about paying for the damage we know results?
