Reply to comment by CrabEnthusist in Maryland’s second-highest court orders new hearing for Adnan Syed, reinstates conviction by Cody_in_Baltimore
I personally am not a fan of victim's rights.
I get that the victim feels entitled to some form of justice, but ultimately they aren't the ones trying the case, the state is. And even in a case where the victim has no rights, it isn't like they'd have no voice. In sentencing, judges allow impact statements almost entirely from the victims of the crime. The judge can use those impact statements to inform the sentence.
I just wouldn't want to be in a situation like we're in, where one person's innocence or guilt is hinging on how the victim's family feels about it and not necessarily about whether the evidence was sufficient to convict.

It’s a victim’s rights Brady violation, This is simply an appellate grant of rehearing of the new trial motion. If this was the state appealing it would be routine. It is constitutional

Whether or not the guy did it, there absolutely was not evidence to convict him beyond a reasonable doubt. The jury dropped the ball on that one.

As a big walker here’s what I’d recommend for an epic walk:
- Start in inner harbor near aquarium
- head east exploring the piers using the waterfront walkways/boardwalks/pedestrian bridges
- head east into harbor east and go up into little Italy
- weave southeast through fells point until you get to Broadway Square
- you can do some of exploring here. The loop of Thames St to Bond to Shakespeare is charming. Then head over to Pitango bakery and cafe on the water at St Ann and Fell St for lunch
- If time: walk up through upper Fells Point to Patterson Park, then head back to Fells Point toward the water
- walk back west on the waterfront boardwalk (green line on google maps) headed to Pier V. You can pick up the boardwalk in Fells Point in front of the Pitango on St Ann, or if you want a longer walk you can start the boardwalk a bit NE of there along the marina, starting at the eastern ends of Lancaster or Thames St, where they meet the water
- once you get to pier V you can take the free city water taxi over to federal hill and walk over to the commercial area along/between Light St and Charles St for dinner

Great thanks, rest of the city's transportation system is third world country status.

The Wine Source should move somewhere with more parking (Rotunda?) if they want more parking, not subject one of the most walkable neighborhoods in the city to the hellish externalities of surface parking lots.
Are they really losing the RoFo parking or are they just not paying what RoFo wants to lease it?

Do you think courts have no point because the possibility exists that a conviction can be vacated?

The proposal is not to build more parking for Wine Source — it’s to build a replacement for the parking they are losing.

Definitely depends on the mood. But Wavy is my all time fave of the plain, salted variety.

Damn, that's tighter than I'd expect. My work asks for two week's(10 work days) notice minimum for requesting leave, and even then you're prioritized below people who requested months earlier. 😬 If they like you they might make an exception for a "good reason" but I've seen people with a grudge stick to the letter of the rules, damn the reason, gotta be fair to everyone.

Rippled. I like to believe it increases the surface area for the salt.

And this is a lesson to all about how we can't, can not, cut corners. Everything must be done to a standard that is without reproach, because any crack left will be clawed at until our work is undone.

> As did the court that convicted the central park 5, who were later found to be innocent.
Court of Law also convicted George Stinney, Jr. as well as the Scottsboro Boys.
Court of Law also convicted Timothy Masters.
...and Herman Williams.
...and Anthony Ray Hinton.
...Kirk Bloodsworth.
...and the list goes on which is, the absolutely blatant racism of cases like George Stinney, Jr. aside, why I will continue to stand by the principle of Blackstone's Ratio.
