    My visit to Sanvergogne had not produced the results I anticipated. Just the opposite! I expected him to help me establish that the Baron Armand de Valfort could have been murdered, and instead, he had proved that this eventuality was not a likelihood, unless someone had the power to walk through the walls of a hermetically closed room. It was, indeed, a setback, but one of my essential attributes being resiliency, such unfortunate turn of events did not discourage me. I had also learned in the…

    stage for argumentation. Starting off, persuasion is present on both teams, in the fact that they are both moving to present whatever message to the jury that they can to win their case. The different sides try to place reasoning and evidence before the evidence so they can see the point of each side (Rybacki 4). Ad hominem is genuine in a case and is a large generator of bias in a courtroom. The prosecutor is generally trying to build the accused’s character as a second-rate person and a…

    the other jurors were telling him. Although the other jurors were already convinced of the their verdict before the discussion even began, Juror 8 knew he needed enough solid proof. Juror 3, along with others, didn't want to challenge the previous evidence, "I really think this is one of those open and shut things. They proved it a dozen different ways. Would you like me to list them for you?" (11). The play teaches readers to question what they have been told instead of following the…

    that they would represent this process accurately. Another thing they managed to get right was evidence. Or rather, that all their evidence was obtained legally, which is constantly an issue with TV law dramas. For example, the main reason why Brandon is a suspect is due to the seminal DNA found in Alyssa, which is physical evidence, and Taylor’s text is a prime example of verbal evidence (“How is Evidence Legally Obtained?”,…

    reading of the scripture does not suggest anything other than a normal day. The Hebrew word for day (Yom) is well researched, the usage in the context of Genesis 1 does not indicate anything other than a normal day . This, to me, is the most compelling evidence for a day being a day, roughly 24 hours. Another good point is in reference to the idea of a day being a thousand years. Following the order of creation this would require plants to live 1,000 years before the sun was created as well as…

    to exercise their authority vested in the State and the public interest. Finally, the third and final case of Schenck v United States (1919).

    students without sports programs benefit from the exclusion of sports and schools can also benefit or improve with the excess funds from sports (1-3). While Ripley’s argument has some merit, at least at first glance, the main ideas are lacking solid evidence and are cherry picked. Ripley believes that schools in the United States that have a sports program are immediately behind other schools academically and the students are more likely to focus on sports than they are academics.…

    same should apply to the digital world. With that said, the fourth amendment certainly applies to digital evidence just as it does to physical evidence. Without proper probable cause, there is no reason to surveilling innocent citizens. Which is why there need to be stricter regulations on NSA employees and what they’re allowed to access. If someone is trying to hide something, digital evidence plays a key role. Secrets never stay a secret because someone or something out there knows the truth.…

    While reading the article, “Andrew and Hannah”, by Pamela Colloff, the one thing I was kept thinking was that all this evidence was very circumstantial. Every piece of evidence they were holding against hannah made no sense, and they could not make scario that fit Hannah’s personality. I do firmly believe that Hannah is innocent meaning that she did not kill her son, but unfortunately she was found guilty by a judge and jury. This made me very upset and I feel deeply sorry that hannah had to go…
