Absolutely. Abb has shown it can be done (and in Louisiana). And the US government FOI requests accept "bloggers" as reporters. (Ergo, so should Durham). Somebody has to ask the questions, and it's a sure fire bet that the media isn't going to do it. (We saw that when they had satellite trucks parked hub to hub and yet NOT ONE of them could question why Nifong was continuing his prosecution after DNA cleared the entire team.) |

Not if. North Carolina is a M'Naughten rule state.
Did you read my post? The burden is on the defense to raise the insanity defense. That's what put's the defendant's state of mind at issue. Until the defense raises the issue, the state has no right to have a psych exam.
Given that Tracy Cline is weighing the politics, I am sure she is looking for an excuse. However, Murder in the Second Degree and Manslaughter are very different crimes from filing a false police report. To obtain a conviction for filing a false police report, the state would have to prove the filer knew the report to be false. In Crystal's case, she made so many statements, most of them designed to appease the very police she was allegedly giving false reports to, I think the state would have had a tough time meeting its burden of proof. Murder, is the knowing or intentional taking of the life of another human being. (Model Penal Code) Manslaughter is the knowing or intentional taking of the life of another human being without premeditation. Walt-in-Durham Edited by Walt-in-Durham, Apr 16 2011, 01:25 PM.

Fortunately, NC does not make a distinction between journalist and non-journalist. So anyone can get the exact same information. The problem comes when a public agency wants to deny access. Few individuals have the resources to fight city hall in court. Walt-in-Durham |

The only one without a picture. ( It could be at the request of the family for privacy.) |

Sort of a strange question but where did we see no pictures before? However his family has every right to not post it. Let's see if the local press covers the funeral? Edited by Baldo, Apr 16 2011, 03:53 PM.

Good find TD! That would seem to imply the family was not trying to keep his picture hidden from the public - it would seem to imply the press never asked for a picture ... |

The obituary lists a lot of family members. If they live in the Durham area, the enablers are going to have a hard time making their narrative stick. |

Thunderthighs is a Hoss(as in Cartright). Easy to inflict a quick unexpected blow, stunning perhaps a surprised or intoxicated opponent and delivering repeat blows. Easy to do. |

When access is denied, either for specious reason or legitimately, that in and of itself becomes a news story. The North Carolina Public Records Law is - like the one in Louisiana - very comprehensive. http://www.ncleg.net/gascripts/Statutes/StatutesTOC.pl?Chapter=0132 Chapter 132: Public Records § 132‑6. Inspection and examination of records. (a) Every custodian of public records shall permit any record in the custodian's custody to be inspected and examined at reasonable times and under reasonable supervision by any person, and shall, as promptly as possible, furnish copies thereof upon payment of any fees as may be prescribed by law. § 132‑1.4. Criminal investigations; intelligence information records; Innocence Inquiry Commission records. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, and unless otherwise prohibited by law, the following information shall be public records within the meaning of G.S. 132‑1. (1) The time, date, location, and nature of a violation or apparent violation of the law reported to a public law enforcement agency. (2) The name, sex, age, address, employment, and alleged violation of law of a person arrested, charged, or indicted. (3) The circumstances surrounding an arrest, including the time and place of the arrest, whether the arrest involved resistance, possession or use of weapons, or pursuit, and a description of any items seized in connection with the arrest. (4) The contents of "911" and other emergency telephone calls received by or on behalf of public law enforcement agencies, except for such contents that reveal the name, address, telephone number, or other information that may identify the caller, victim, or witness. (5) The contents of communications between or among employees of public law enforcement agencies that are broadcast over the public airways. (6) The name, sex, age, and address of a complaining witness. |

. Yes, but the media regularly (as in daily) prints pictures of murder victims from the Public files - it's normal. But the Media has no interest. . |

Mr Daye got stabbed a number of times on the left side. He did have the ability to find help who called 911. Hard to say f his nephew applied some first aide. He did manage to talk with the cops and explained what happened. He apparently went down hill fairly rapidly. By the time he arrived at Duke news reports indicated he was put on life support. I would assume on the way to Duke trauma that the emergency people applied significant aide to (try) normalize vitals. He probably went to the ER or had some surgery in the ED. Especially if they considered him having sever injuries. After surgery, the maintained him on life support and monitored Mr Daye continuously. It could have been that some cardiac arrests happened soon after arrival at the hospital of sometime after surgery. During the next week or so he most likely could not respond to any stimulus or may have even been brain dead. The relatives then made a decision to disconnect life support. Having a number of knife wounds on the left side of the chest can inflict damage to the heart itself, arteries supplying blood to the heart, severely injure the lung enough to collapse it causing oxygen deprivation and possible eventual coma and severe blood loss. Crystal was responsible for the initial act. She is also responsible for the results of her act. IMO, it had to be premeditation. The cops visited earlier and left. She had time to decide she wanted the money. She apparently chose to take the money with a knife to his chest. She left the scene. |
