Describe a situation in which a grand jury would get involved in sexual

ROFLAMO

I see I've nailed you again.

I'll play for a bit...

Director one is before the grand jury because there is an
investigation of a corporation involving insider trading.

Director one is asked if he has had sex with an intern.

Director one says no.

Further investigation shows he is lying.
Scott in Florida


1/2 second after the director was asked about sex, his lawyer would be out
of his chair crying foul, and we would be correct because sex has nothing
to
do with insider trading. It would be obvious (to anyone but an idiot) that
the prosecutor was simply trying to color the jury's opinion of the
director.

It would certainly work on you, if you were on the jury.


PSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSST Joe.....

You DON'T have a lawyer with ya in grand jury.

OK. YOu got me, diaper boy. My question remains: In the scenario YOU
suggested, which YOU said involved insider trading, why would ANYONE ask a
corporate director about sex?

I need an example so you can get me again.

No. Waiting for Scott to explain how the courts would get involved with
a
situation where someone in an office accidentally unplugged the water
cooler. He can't.

I thought it was about sex in the office.

Same thing, unless you're a fake saint and you claim they're not the same
thing. If you'd like something more annoying than the water cooler
example, here's another: Breaking donuts in half and leaving the half in
the box, so nobody wants to eat it.

That's not a good example. Around here, almost everybody would grab up
that half donut. The squeamish wouldn't take it if they thought you had
bitten it in half but, even if it had teeth marks in it, somebody would
take it before the end of the day.

Yeah, we're a rough crowd.

OK. Let's crank it up: Someone pours the last of the coffee, puts the pot
back on the burner, and doesn't turn off the heat. The pot cracks. It's the
only pot in the office. Now we're talking grand jury action, you bet.

Yep. ;-) You want to get rid of something, be it food or virtually
any other item, just leave it on a table with a "Help Yourself" or
"Free" sign & presto - it's gone!

You are aware that the person to be pardoned is guilty of a crime
and
must be remorsefully?

What Libby did is no different than what organized crime figures
do -
a person keeps thier mouth shut and takes the fall. The crime
family
takes care of their family, protects them in jail, and give them
back
their job when they get out.

As a former registered republican that still believes "we are a
nation
of laws and not men", I must say republicans today are not
interested
in laws, just ideology.

Libby was found guilty of his crimes by a jury of his peers. To
ask
for a pardon is jury nulification but I doubt you agreed with the
OJ
verdict, which was also jury nulification.

Get a grip. Reassess what you are doing, how you are being used
by
republican people in power.

Your obsession with Clinton is blinding you to this administration's
complete disregard for the constitution.

Clinton took the impeachment like a man. No whining, no complaining,
no one on the left calling for a pardon. I bet Clinton would not
accept a pardon.

What do you think is going on with the firing of the federal
prosecutors? One of Karl Rove's assistants was put into the New
Mexico prosecutor position after Cummings was fired. Another was
told
he was appointed to a federal prosecutor job to get resume experience
so he could be appointed a judge. Before you give me a flip answer
consider the "consequences" when a dreaded Democratic president has
the same powers.

You didn't get it did ya, LOL.

ACAA gets it. You don't. Clinton lied about a BJ. Who cares? It wasn't a
proper subject for investigation and questions about the President's sex
life shouldn't have been put to him under oath, anyway. As regards a
President's sex life, he has only the First Lady (or the First Husband,
after Hillary wins) to answer to.

The Bush team appears to be illegally using the identity of CIA operatives
to foster political advantage. That's illegal, a subversion of
Constitutional processes and is a subject appropriate for investigation and
questions about it should be put to people under oath.

And, of course, the larger picture is that this Administration is so
habitually and brazenly deceitful and so thoroughly and hopelessly
incompetent that one of them got convicted for lying when there was no
reason to lie.

Tell the truth, I don't read more than the first sentence of your
postings. Started a couple weeks ago when you yet again repeated
yourself. bye.
Holy crow. DH's posts are among the most intelligent, rational ones
in here. They actually have reasoned content.

Or how about leaving the donut box open overnight with day old donuts.
Worse yet, leaving an empty open donut box overnight.

Now get back to the more serious, SEX in the office.

Why is it serious? Here's Scott's theory:

Let's say two people happily have sex in the office, and neither of them has
a problem with it. Later, one of them is hauled before a grand jury because
of insider trading. If you were on that jury, and a lawyer asked the
employee "Did you have sex in the office?", what would you think about the
lawyer asking that question?

The prosecutor can ask any question he/she wants to ask. Even the
members of the Grand Jury can ask stupid questions, did you know that?
Your best bet is to say I don't remember (Bill Clinton) or I don't know
and try, try to keep your big mouth shut as much as you can. I know it
would be very hard for you.
I asked if you thought it was APPROPRIATE for anyone to ask such an
unrelated question, not whether is was LEGAL. It would be obvious to any
sentient being that in this context, the question was completely ridiculous.

By the way, I want to thank you for being a perfect example of a
deuterostome, particularly since you never progressed past the stage which
defines the word. You're the poster boy.
