Heisey strikes out to end the inning.

Heisey is batting only .143 in the postseason. He’s no Ray Olmedo.

IME, getting out of jury duty is pretty easy

The problem is getting to the point where the lawyers reject you. You can end up sitting in court for days while they question the other jurors.

You can usually tell what the lawyers are looking for, and answer accordingly. The last time I got called for jury duty, I knew they would reject me, because they were rejecting all engineers. (They were afraid engineers would not listen to their expert witnesses. And in my case, they’d be right.)

But I had to sit there for three days, until they settled out of court. Without ever getting around to interviewing me.

I got out of jury duty in college just by being a student. I went to school across the country from where I was registered to vote and drive, so it was pretty routine.

That's the problem with rape

Too often it’s he-said-she-said. I don’t like to hang labels on people for crimes when they aren’t convicted or don’t plead. But it’s hard to completely avoid assigning some degree of guilt, particularly if the guy seems like a massive tool.

It’s pretty rare for victims to make false accusations of rape.

And he apologized and paid damages. Not really what you expect from someone who was falsely accused.

I have absolutely no doubt that he's an asshole

Most people in his position are. That doesn’t give someone who willingly went to bed with him and had a less than ideal experience the right to claim rape.

We have the best justice system money can buy.

If you can afford a good lawyer, you won’t be convicted if you’re innocent.

You have a good chance of not being convicted if you’re guilty. (See Simpson, OJ.)

Legally. They’ll get off, only because of who they are. That’s fine. But explain to Kobe’s kid why she had to hear the taunts of “your daddy’s a rapist!” when he was never convicted of a crime.

That's part of the package if you choose that kind of life

There are great benefits, and there are great drawbacks. You can get away with stuff ordinary folk never would, and when you get in trouble, everyone knows it.

It’s too bad when kids are involved. But that happens even with non-celebs. A man in my town was recently accused of being a child molester. His picture was on the front page of the newspaper. His name has become something of a running joke in town. I imagine his kids are getting a ton of abuse at school.

get the same treatment. Exactly the same. Just from more people.

Now if you wanted to argue that no one’s name should be published until they were convicted, I could understand it. I believe that is how things work in some countries.

But here in the US, everyone’s subject to the court of public opinion. Rich or poor, famous or not. Heck, that’s a big part of jury selection.

It’s a bit unfair as it is.

I get what you’re saying re: more people. I just get riled that so many people are willing to pass judgment without knowing anything about what happened. Rape is an incredibly serious accusation and should be treated sensitively IMO.

it is unfair

But not more so for celebrities. They rarely lose their jobs or their place in society because of these kinds of allegations. It’s the ordinary folk who get hit there.

The only celebrities who suffer more than regular folk when accused of impropriety are politicians. Gary Condit, voted out of office because the woman he was having an affair with was killed…by someone else. John Edwards, political career ended because tabloid reporters trailed him to a hotel where he was meeting his mistress. Mike Duvall, forced to resign for bragging to a coworker about his sexual conquests.

Can’t say I feel real sorry for them, though.
