Source: Crime and Justice News, September 17, 2008. "Massachusetts law enforcement officials are uniting against a referendum question they fear will increase marijuana use among teenagers and generate more crime across the state, reports the Boston Globe. The issue is Question 2, which would place Civil instead of criminal Penalties on adults possessing an ounce or less of marijuana. The state's 11 district attorneys unanimously oppose Question 2 and are being joined by police chiefs and some community groups, fearing it will undo years of effort to reduce drug use among teenagers. Governor Deval Patrick's administration also is opposed." "Supporters of Question 2, organized under the name Committee for Sensible Marijuana Policy, are striking back. Today, they plan to announce that they have applied for criminal complaints against some district attorneys for alleged campaign law violations. Whitney Taylor, the advocates' group director, said that if Question 2 passes, marijuana will still be illegal. She said the new approach will increase parental involvement in marijuana cases for those under 18 years old because police will be required to notify parents about the Civil matter. She said those under 18 must complete drug awareness training and do 10 hours of community service." Boston Globe ... Source: asbestoshub.com --- 3 days ago

In Norristown, Pennsylvania, a landlord has accepted responsibility for spying on his tenants . Thomas Daley was arraigned this morning on hundreds of offenses which include the uses of hidden video cameras to view and film intimate footage of his tenants. It has been reported that Daley has admitted on spying on his tenants for 20 years. It is believed he has installed hidden cameras in bedrooms, bathrooms, and living rooms of the 12 apartments he owned in three Norristown buildings. Clearly, the prosecutors will seek serious jail time for this lunatic. However, as a Personal Injury Lawyer , I look at how these victims can recover against Daley in a Civil way. The only Civil recourse under our laws is a claim for monetary damages. Many times victims of crimes do not file Civil claims associated with their loss. However, these victims should. It appears Daley owns at least twelve apartments in three buildings. Maybe they are paid off - it looks like he may have equity in them for at least 20 years. Maybe this man has assets in other places. Victims of criminal activity should always contact an experienced personal injury lawyer to explore their Civil options. Personal injury is not always an injury to the body. However, in this case, knowing you have been watched and filmed can certainly cause emotional injuries. ... Source: news.yahoo.com --- 10 days ago

Formal agreements are the second-most serious public enforcement action the OCC can take against banks, according to the agency's Web site.

With the number of preelection days dwindling and tempers rising, we had more of the predictable homestretch toing-and-froing over campaign attacks Saturday. Someone on Side A says something that Side B can seize upon and criticize to create a fight, which the media much prefers covering with military verbiage because it's bored hearing the standard stum p speeches so often. And that puts Side A momentarily on the defensive while it "admonishes" its overzealous supporter, even though, if anyone told the truth -- which they won't -- they're delighted to have the suggestion out there as long as it can't be traced back to HQ. If these campaigns had referees, they'd be calling offsetting Penalties every day now. And we have 24 more of these to watch. Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) likened the politics of Arizona Sen. John McCain and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to segregationist former Alabama Gov. George Wallace . McCain shot back his longstanding admiration of Civil rights pioneer Lewis but said it was ridiculous to equate legitimate criticism of Illinois Sen. Barack Obama and his policies with Wallace and constituted "a brazen and baseless attack on ... ... my character and the thousands of hardworking Americans who come to our events." McCain called on Obama to repudiate the attack, which the Democratic presidential nominee's campaign didn't really do later in the day.
