So basically the defense's expert tried to apply Hollywood Accounting outside of the movie business?

That's, um, shall we say a novel form of legalized insanity.

Why aren't the kids under indictment for their thefts from the gov's mansion? Did Mrs. Gov take the blame for that one, too? You could almost feel sorry for her, if you didn't know she's acting this part so she can stay out of the sneezer.

It's late and time to be fair: nobody should be judged by the unimportant stuff they do in high school or college.

Plus Cindy's hot. And they don't call it the University of Spoiled Children for nothing.

I'd guess that the evidence against the kids is weak. I'm not saying the story isn't true, just that without explicit inventory records it would be pretty easy to do the "We were confused about what was our folks' stuff and what was the state's" samba. And, y'know, maybe some of it was surplus.

Also, too, from the prosecutor's standpoint, that would really be punching down. Now, if somebody showed up to say credibly that they were taking the stuff and <i>selling</i> it, that would be a different kettle of grifters.

They shoulda collateralized those loans, and then issued three tranches of credit default swaps against them (A to AAA grade), and then buggered off to the Caymans.

Isn't he a little <i>old</i> to be sleeping with a priest?

The TV miniseries based on these jokers is going to be a real hoot.
