It has no bearing on the case. The fuck you on about?

[-] toiletobserver@lemm.ee -4 points 2 months ago

People who are intimately involved have a tendency to make compromised decisions involving the other person. It isn't just about doing the right thing, it is about looking like you are doing the right thing too.

[-] StinkyOnions@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

He was already removed. So again, it had no bearing on the case.

[-] aStonedSanta@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago

As far as we know. That doesn’t mean it won’t have a bearing on an appeal or anything else that might happen. Glad you clearly know all and the future though.

[-] StinkyOnions@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

It clearly doesn't lol but you keep thinking that.

Doesn't mean she'll be kicked off dumbass.

[-] aStonedSanta@lemm.ee -1 points 1 month ago

I never stated that. And clear you are losing the argument as you are resorting to name calling.

[-] StinkyOnions@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Lol it doesn't but whatever helps you sleep at night.

[-] toiletobserver@lemm.ee -4 points 2 months ago

You are obviously not taking input, why participate?

[-] StinkyOnions@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Wtf is that even supposed to mean?

[-] toiletobserver@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago

I can repeat it if you like...

Even if they don't have sex, people who work closely together inevitably become intimate.

Judgement can be clouded for all kinds of reasons. That's also unavoidable in any complex undertaking without rising to the level of malfeasance or negligence.

[-] aStonedSanta@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Yes. So in such a high profile case. Why? That’s idiotic.

[-] dudinax@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

They stopped having sex before the indictment. What's idiotic is people thinking that two people who ever had sex before shouldn't work together.
