Frustration

You know what is frustrating? When you spend forever arguing, begging, pleading, and using all your other tools of persuasion to get a prosecutor to give you a particular deal, but the prosecutor will only offer you X years. So, you go talk to your client and explain what the offer is, and your client yells at you, "Why you trying to give me X years?"

You're surprised that the clients don't understand the legal system? Why? Most jurors don't get it either, and that's after the judge reads the jury instructions. I bet 90% still think it's their opinion or best guess that is what is required of them - and after all they couldn't follow a logical argument to save themselves. So don't be shocked if your clients are clueless - par for the course.

Next time tell them there's no way they'll get less than the max and if you can do any better they'll think you are the best.

Ok, if the prosecutor is being so bat-$hit unreasonable, why not just get him voted out of office, by exposing his misbehavior to the voters on your bully-pulpit website?

Likewise, contact the ones running against him, and feed them this ammo?

This IS a democracy, last I checked, and that's HOW you're supposed to deal with bad officials who abuse their trusted power.

State Government Seizes Thousands of Missouri Newspapers, Machines and Company money without notice.

We are one of many newspaper distributors of 22 newspapers such as USA today at Missouri rest areas. There are no pornographic newspapers distributed at rest areas.

We distributed 5 and did the litigation that opened up rest areas to first amendment protected newspaper distribution.

We assembled an 8 page non commercial
website of legal positions and court rulings etc including one upheld by the St Louis U.S. Court of Appeals (8th Cir.) which upheld a federal District Court ruling that state regulations limiting vending machines at rest stops violate a newspaper publisher's First Amendment rights.
http://missouri.violatesrights.com/



We had filed twice before seizure, that we had a constitutionally protected right to distribute there, that in addition to several court rulings, they had opened it up to many first amendment activities including registering voters, handing out political literature.. for 18 years thereby making it a dedicated public forum.

They never acknowledged that and despite four inquiries and two responses do not directly admit to four direct inquiries that they have seized our newspapers.

Also that we were entitled to be notified and granted a hearing under the due process provisions of the constitution

Rest areas are paid for by the Federal government and managed and maintained by the state government. Thus they are paid for and owned by the public and all constitutional rights apply there as any where else in Missouri.

Read up on the subject of the importance of newspaper to free society's. The people of Missouri have a right to receive literature, and have obtained 22 newspapers for 18 years and have a right to continue to do so.

U.S. Supreme Court in Martin Vs Struthers......

The Court held that the First Amendment protects both "the right to distribute literature" and "the right to receive it" and stated that the distribution of literature is protected "even if it creates the minor nuisance for a community of cleaning liter from its streets." Justice Hugo Black, writing the opinion of the court,.....-Wikipedia
