  • Muñoz, from Peru, overstayed her visa ... Bartell, once supportive of stricter immigration policies, ...

    "Supportive of stricter immigration policies," doesn't turn in his wife for violating existing immigration policies.

    No they cannot. That would be double jeopardy, where the prosecution can just keep charging you with the same crime until you're found guilty.

    Defense can appeal a conviction. But an appeal has to be based on something that shouldn't have happened in the first trial, or if new evidence is uncovered that would have a material impact on the verdict. Even then, that doesn't mean the defendant is not guilty. Now they get a new trial. With a new jury. With all the same evidence and testimony from the first trial, which we know produced a guilty verdict. Best chance for you is if the DA doesn't want to reprosecute.

    All of that last bit is the sole privilege of the defense.

    LET IT BE KNOWN THAT I WAS STUPID TODAY.

  • Oh, I definitely wouldn't say that "no contact" should be the only option. I think McD's has taken it a bit too far; you still can order from a person at a register, but it's pretty much an afterthought now.

    But I do think that having those no contact options available for whoever wants to use them, for whatever reason, is a positive thing. If I'm having a particularly bad bout of social anxiety, just sitting at a table and eating my cheeseburger "like a normal person" can be very grounding, but it might not be something I'm able to do if I have to talk to a person to place my order.

  • Culver's has started doing tableside ordering at some stores. Go in, sit down, scan the QR at the table. Takes you to a website where you can order and pay. They bring your food to you. It's amazing, especially for those "I need a cheeseburger without having to talk to anyone" times.
