Michael Jackson
Conrad Murray, the former doctor that tended to pop star Michael Jackson in the months before he died, overdosing him on the pharmaceutical drug, Propofol, has filed an appeal in his manslaughter conviction in connection with the singer's death in his Bel Air home at the age of 49.
Murray was overwhelmingly found guilty by a Los Angeles jury, who were in complete unison regarding his criminal misconduct. Judge Michael Pastor also threw the book at Murray, whilst issuing a stern lecture on the lethal consequences of his wanton decisions for money.

Murray remains in jail and is representing himself for the appeal. An ill-advised documentary Murray did into the death of Jackson featured him speaking ill of his attorney as "unprepared." Clearly, he feels he can do better. The Judiciary Report would be genuinely surprised if Murray will be successful in overturning the conviction, as the jury was so unanimous and there are no obvious discrepancies or blaring omissions in the prosecution's case.
However, having stated that, I don't have access to all the case documents from the trial, to poke any possible holes in it, but I did watch it online and the prosecution put on a good, solid case. It is going to be hard to deconstruct what the prosecution in this case did and somehow prove it was wrong. Murray's worst enemy right now is the evidence.

Barack Obama
U.S. President Barack Obama, is set to appeal the judicial ruling of Florida judge, Roger Vinson, who struck down his health care law. Judge Vinson ruled Obamacare is unconstitutional, much to the applause of the President's rival Republicans.
President Obama's Justice Department, headed up by inept Attorney General, Eric Holder, has taken umbrage with the ruling. A Justice Department representative stated they "strongly disagree" with Vinson and shall take the matter to the appeals court. If that measure fails, the Supreme Court will most likely take up the matter.
Obamacare is in need of massive work. It throws around money like it is in abundance, at a time the nation is bankrupt. The bill was not structure in the most prudent, cost effective manner and shall wreak horrible havoc on the national deficit. Sadly, some in government like to find things out the hard way.

Barack Obama
In spite of the fact, U.S. President, Barack Obama, often panders to the gay community, leading them to believe he will make same sex marriage national law, he has made a very decisive and detrimental move against them in court. The Obama Administration, has appealed a decision made by District Judge Joseph Tauro in Boston, which allowed same sex marriage in the U.S. state of Massachusetts.
For the record, the Judiciary Report is only in favor of heterosexual marriage, between a man and a woman, but wishes the gay community no harm. The site is commenting on this particular legal maneuver by the Obama Administration, due to its blatant hypocrisy, as he has repeatedly promised the gay community he will push their causes.
The President should not make promises he does not intend to keep, as that makes him like every other dishonest politician, pandering to the public for votes, with no desire to make good on all that has been said.

U.S. President Obama, pictured with his family, claims to be a family man, but sees no qualms about the abominably sanctioning the destruction of millions of embryos God created.
U.S. President Barack Obama, has instructed his Justice Department, headed up by the incompetent, Eric Holder, to appeal a wise judicial ruling, barring stem cell research in America, which is experimentation on human embryos.
It is quite appalling to think of the number of embryos that have been the subject of horrific experiments since Obama's 2009 decision, permitted such research. It shows a gross lack of respect for human life.
An article in the Jamaica Observer, revealed some Jamaicans are in favor of bringing back the death penalty. Someone close to me, who has worked in the Jamaican judicial system for many years, is in favor of it, as some do not wish for their hard earned tax dollars to go towards housing, feeding and clothing serious criminals, who have damaged society in irreparable ways.
However, as a Jamaican, I don't think re-instituting the death penalty is a good idea. In general, countries need to move away from capital punishment. Undoubtedly, some people's deeds warrant it, for engaging in conduct that can only be labeled human atrocities, but the Judiciary Report is of the belief, life in prison is best for such egregious cases.
Jamaica needs to move towards the construction of an austere, maximum security prison, with hard labor for its occupants, to incarcerate those that have harmed society in a terrible manner and to act as a deterrent for those thinking of committing heinous crimes that would draw a life sentence.
In closing, respectfully, the Jamaican government needs to detach from the British Privy Council, as the aforementioned individual has proclaimed to me for years. Not for anything negative on the Council's part, but the fact criminals are abusing it to stretch out appeals, sending it to Britain and remaining free in Jamaica for years, wreaking havoc, when they belong behind bars. Keep the process a domestic one.
