#12 and #13 . . "dayum" as you say, Ted . . . where are all those rotten cops being described over in the other forum this morning.
They must be out harassing the law-abiding public with their traffic cameras and also prowling parking areas, looking for people with fancy bicycles in their vehicles that are using handicapped spaces. Dayum

What's up buckety buck, you could cut down a tree with them front teeth. The victims lucky he didn't come away with more serious injuries due to the biting.

I can just hear it now: "Well, I would like to work for world peace. And find a cure for hunger and poverty. Oh, yeah. And stick my ex-boyfriend in the ear with a knife."

I wonder what he did to her that made her do this? I would like to hear her story. Was this drug related? Obviously this is a big from law student to the dark side. Something pushed her over the edge.

She'll get off light. I see an Arkansas connection between her boss, the man who appointed him (Clinton) and her name, Fulbright as in Sen. Fulbright of Arkansas.

Maybe she wasn't cutting it in law school, so she figured she would get in the back door through the convict "I'm refomed and want to make a difference" program. ASU law school has that program don't they?

This commentary thread brings to mind a little tune by the late great Phil Ochs.
They say they can't believe it, it's a sacreligious shame
Now, who would want to hurt such a hero of the game?
But you know I predicted it; I knew he had to fall
How did it happen? I hope his suffering was small.
Tell me every detail, for I've got to know it all,
And do you have a picture of the pain?

I see a movie deal here. Is there a cable channel equivalent of "Lifetime"(The Man-bashing channel) for men? besides "Spike", of course.
They could call it: "Prisoner of Love" or something like that.

Sadly, this beauty queen is a product of a dysfunctional, violent hip-hop-influenced culture, where underpants are optional and kidnapping and abusing your ex-boyfriend is perceived as an OK thing to do.
I'm sorry that this woman is affiliated with the U of A and our federal court system. Embarassing.

What on Earth was she thinking, and the three male stooges helping her? Were they planning on killing this guy.....because he certainly wasn't going to forget what they did to him. I hope her dumb vengence was worth her law career, and more than likely a good future, period.

I heard a couple of DJs one morning on the radio while driving through Austin, Texas, make the remark that Paris Hilton gives whores a bad name. One might say more about Britney Spears. Closer to home we have a real queen of darkness. Wow. Maybe she could be drafted to do community service time, putting on sex shows at half time at UofA football games, including her taste for domination, etc. all kidding aside, where do these subhumans breed anyway? this is not the Tucson our ravenging beauty Bonnie Henry writes about. Help - Bonnie!!!

What he did to her?? Ummmm, no matter what "he" did, she had legal recourse to fix the matter. Espcially since she was a law clerk.
Taking the matter into her own hands (and mouth since she bit him), is the only story I need to hear...
