At a Tuesday afternoon press conference, Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman and Los Angeles Police Chief Jim McDonnell gave an update on the murders of legendary Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife, photographer Michele Singer Reiner. Hochman announced that he would be filing charges against Nick Reiner on two counts of first degree murder with a special circumstance of multiple murders. Reiner also faces a special allegation that he "personally used" a dangerous and deadly weapon – a knife – in the commission of those murders. The charges, according to Hochman, carry a maximum sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole or the death penalty.

Fortunately, LA now has a 'legitimate' district attorney. Also, I'm thinking this article misstated the maximum sentence?? Shouldn't it be "...life in prison withOUT the possibility of parole or the death penalty." ?

The first thing Newsom did when he became governor, was to order the dismantling of the death chamber at San Quentin. I doubt the DA will ultimately charge Reiner with the death penalty.

Life. Possibly paroled in 20-25 years. He won't get the death penalty and you can be sure his lawyers will plead mental illness and addiction. Still, a sad end to a sad life.

#8, why would addiction keep him from getting the death penalty? If a person chooses to do drugs, it shouldn't be a pass to get out of any crimes they might commit. Alcohol can also be an addiction but if you get drunk and then drive and injure or kill someone, you don't get a free pass just because you are addicted to alcohol. Of course, this did happen in California and laws are different for the rich and/or famous.

California liberals will have a caniption since Nick, who (allegedly) OJ'd one of their wealthier darlings, deserves the death penalty....but can't justify executing an orphan. Maybe they can think of it as a "post-term" abortion.

If you go back twenty years, on 13 December 2005, Crips gang co-founder Stanley "Tookie" Williams took "the ride" on the gurney for four shocking execution style murders in 1979 with a 12 gauge shotgun. The Governator signed the black bordered document that started the final phase of the punishment. Because Tookie had become, in prison, a children's author, his execution was controversial. If you saw crime scene pictures of his slaughtered victims, you would understand why Gov. Schwarzenegger proceeded with the execution. Everyone is going to die eventually. To hear death penalty opponents bellyaching about a few heartless killers who are fighting execution, you'd think the bastages were immortal. If the price for wantonly taking human life is not the life of the killer, his victims' lives are correspondingly cheapened.

This is the state that not only did not execute OJ Simpson, they gave him a pass so he could spend the rest of his life looking for the "real killer" on the best golf courses in the country. Ironically, he slashed a couple of throats just like Nick did.

Yesterday, the FBI delivered to the Senate Judiciary Committee emails relating to the search of President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. Senator Charles Grassley has released what I take to be all of the responsive documents. Comments you may have seen on the emails are correct: the FBI didn’t think there was probable cause to search Trump’s home, but Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice insisted. The FBI thought they should communicate with Trump’s lawyer and likely be able to reach an agreement. Garland’s DOJ refused. The FBI pointed out that President Trump likely had a good legal argument on the documents; DOJ didn’t care. Here are some extracts from the emails.

WASHINGTON — Former Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith told lawmakers in a closed-door interview on Wednesday that his team of investigators “developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt” that President Donald Trump had criminally conspired to overturn the results of the 2020 election, according to portions of his opening statement obtained by The Associated Press. He also said investigators had accrued “powerful evidence” that Trump broke the law by hoarding classified documents from his first term as president at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, and by obstructing government efforts to recover the records. “I made my decisions in the investigation without regard to President Trump’s political association,

My family has a long history with Ford trucks. Among my earliest memories is riding in the 1950 Ford F-1 my Dad had when he was farming; the Old Man later kept a 4-wheel-drive F-250 on his place for various chores. I've had a bunch, from a 1984 Ford Ranger, two Broncos, a 1999 Ranger, and now the F-350 Super Duty we call the Behemoth. I like Ford trucks, and reckon I'll keep on driving them. On Tuesday, Ford gave me more reason to favor them by finally dropping the F-150 "Lightning," an all-electric version of Ford's famous top-seller. Ford Motor Co. is pivoting away from its once-ambitious electric vehicle plans

Go ahead and file this one under 'You Don't Hate the Media Enough.' ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) Global Affairs Editor Laura Tingle raised eyebrows during a recent podcast where she—not once, but twice—declared that the targeted terrorist attack at Sydney's Bondi Beach on Sunday evening was not motivated by religion. The target of the attack was a Hanukkah celebration to mark the first night of the Jewish holiday. The alleged perpetrators, as noted by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, who himself would love nothing more than to shift the blame onto inanimate guns, were inspired by ISIS. The attackers had an ISIS flag on the window of their car.

President Trump has sued the British Broadcasting Corporation for $10 billion. He alleges defamation and violation of a Florida unfair trade practices statute, arising out of the BBC’s deceptive editing of the speech Trump gave to his rally in Washington on January 6, 2017. Disregard the $10 billion–it is meaningless. You can read the Complaint here. All of the commentary I have seen on the lawsuit consists of liberal reporters and liberal “experts” assuring one another that Trump has a lousy case.

Legally armed civilians, we’re told, pose a major danger. They shoot innocent bystanders, justifiably kill others whenever they personally believe “force is reasonably necessary,” and rely on racist self-defense laws. At least these concerns are the case in several recent news articles in the Wall Street Journal. On Monday, with the story on the front page of the Journal, reporter Mark Maremont continued his attacks on people legally carrying concealed handguns. His article presents four stories from 2021 to the present where citizens who used a gun in self-defense accidentally shot a bystander. But with more than 1.6 million defensive gun uses each year, almost 21 million permit holders,

President Donald Trump’s tasteless comments following the apparent murder of Hollywood legend Rob Reiner on Sunday showed that the president, at least on that occasion, had a speck in his eye. Before criticizing Trump, however, liberals should make sure to remove the logs from their own eyes. (Matthew 7:3) Recall, for instance, that a swarm of liberals, including Reiner himself, once greeted news of the late conservative media icon Rush Limbaugh’s cancer diagnosis — and later Limbaugh’s death — with politically-motivated heartlessness. “Only one thing to say about Rush Limbaugh getting a Presidential Medal if Freedom at The State of the Union: I loathe this *****g man,” Reiner wrote

The enhanced Obamacare subsidies Democrats shut down the government to protect back in October are officially dead. House Speaker Mike Johnson slammed the door on extending the bloated COVID-era handout, saying the House will focus instead on moving forward with a new Republican healthcare package. The temporary subsidies, born out of pandemic panic, were supposed to expire at the end of this year. Democrats, of course, wanted them extended indefinitely—because nothing is ever temporary in Washington when it involves taxpayer money. But Johnson made it clear on Tuesday that this was the end of the line.

Instead, Schumer went with the standard Democrat talking point of pushing more gun laws after extant gun control fails to prevent a criminal from acting out his heinous intentions. Forbes posted video of Schumer claiming Australia is showing “courage” by seeking ways to expand and implement new gun controls after the Bondi Beach terror attack.

President Trump lodged an eye-watering $10 billion lawsuit against the BBC on Monday, accusing the British broadcaster of defaming him through a deceptive edit of his Jan. 6, 2021, speech at the White House Ellipse. The lawsuit took aim at a 2024 documentary by the BBC, which spliced different sections of Trump’s comments before his supporters ransacked the Capitol to make it appear as though he explicitly encouraged the riot. “I’m suing the BBC for putting words in my mouth, literally,” Trump grumbled to reporters earlier in the day, Monday. “They actually put terrible words in my mouth having to do with January 6th that I didn’t say.”
