In the (in)famous Adnan Syed murder case (anatomy of a murder) there is a petition before the United States Supreme Court asking this:
Whether a court evaluating prejudice under Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984), must take the State’s case as it was presented to the jury, as ten state and federal courts have held, or whether the court may instead hypothesize that the jury may have disbelieved the State’s case, as the Maryland Court of Appeals held below.
You can read the petition below, or save yourself the trouble and rely on your faithful blogger to keep you updated with all the information you need to know.
Speaking of which....Congrats to Antonio Brown. Released by the Cheaters on Friday afternoon, he signed a five year contract to be a Victim/Witness Coordinator with the Dade SAO. Starting salary at 36 smackers per, and a signing bonus of five hundred brady-bucks.
SURVIVOR POOL
Want to earn a very valuable week pass? It's simple.
First- send us your pick in these two games:
Miami +22 at Dallas AND JETS +22 at Cheaters.
Pick the winner with the spread in both games and that gets you to the ez Monday night game. Details to follow but first, lets see you get through the initial 22 point challenge. As for the last part of the challenge, lets just say you should be looking at how many yards the QBs toss the rock for on average.
We think picking the Cheaters -22 against a third string starting QB who showed little last week is a no-brainer. With the new QB for the Fins, they could keep it under 20 against the overrated Cowpokes. Not sure about that yet.
Brown's starting in DV Monday.
