Lawyer: we need to wait, society forgets stuff easily. Years later. Lawyer: now is the time, let’s pay them

mathemachristian ,

Since when does the lawyer decide when a verdict is reached?

andrewta ,

Where did he say a lawyer decides when a verdict is reached?

Fantomas , to worldnews in Kevin Spacey cleared over all sexual assault charges

I choose now, to live, as a creepy old man. 👏👏👏👏

aeternum , to worldnews in Ghana parliament votes to abolish death penalty

Death penalty has no place today. It's barbaric, and, at least in america, it's like 5% of those executed are innocent. I don't know the exact number, but that's not good enough. Imagine waking up one day to be executed and you did nothing wrong.

You can always release somebody from prison, you can’t pick them up from the afterlife.

Is this really world news?

It is if you live in Asia

Malaysian here. If UK news isn't world news then something horrible must have happened last night.

Sidebar says “News from around the world” not “News impacting the world”. If you don’t like it, down vote it and move on; or better yet, start a new community that you see fit. This is Lemmy after all, and anyone can create a community/an instance to shape the fediverse to their hearts’ content.

the_kalash ,

Nope.

jocanib ,

Not if you’re USian. But apparently ‘politics’ only exists for USians. Confusing, I know. Probably best not to worry about it. If you’re not interested, just scroll on by.

jayknight , to worldnews in Pastor at kidnapped US girl's funeral in 1975 charged with her murder

Surely there’s a better way to write that title.

moistclump ,

Agreed. Had to click in to understand. Maybe that’s part of the point of bad titles. Anyway, here’s the subtitle which makes more sense:

A retired US church pastor who presided nearly half a century ago at the funeral of a kidnapped eight-year-old girl has been charged with her murder.

This is good!

xuxebiko , to world in Yemen: The children of a forgotten war

Their lives will be made worse if food prices rise or if there's a shortage (thinking of the Ukrainian food stocks Russia is destroying & preventing from being shipped)

:(

“That’s a succinct summary of humankind, I’d say. Who needs tomes and volumes of history? Children are dying. The injustices of the world hide in those three words.” - Steven Erikson.

That’s great! I hope more countries follow their example.

One can’t say they live in a civilized country if it still has the death penalty.

That’s funny coming from an American. I guess they are more civilized than you guys.

Drusas , to news in Travis King: How the US negotiates with North Korea

He went there willingly.

I know, he was in the military and so he might know things North Korea wants to know, and therefore it's better to get him back before it's all tortured out of him.

But at the same time, he went there willingly.

MyOpinion , to news in Travis King: How the US negotiates with North Korea

What about personal responsibility? They chose to defect to North Korea. I don’t get this.

Far too many use Christianity to hide their inner demons.

What's the point of Jesus' blood covering all sins if you've got nothing to cover-up?

Hazdaz , to news in Travis King: How the US negotiates with North Korea

Why negotiate? NK can have him.

Religious leaders and hurt children. The story never changes.
