Honestly, if I'm the defense, this has gotta be awesome, right? Now, I'm not a lawyer, but I have watched Boston Legal twice, so that's basically the same thing, and what I'm hearing is these people want to get up on the stand and show the jury a video which either:

A) to the particularly inattentive, shows the victim clearly alive, or

B) demonstrates that even video evidence can be completely fabricated from whole cloth, and the opposition is more than capable of doing so to serve their own interests

Barring the staggeringly unlikely event that the defendant goes full-on Perry Mason Perp and outright says "hey, sorry I killed you, man" to the hologram, this seems like a pretty sweet deal.

Or some scheming vice admiral with designs on world domination keeps claiming that fighter jets are falling off his aircraft carriers, to cover up the fact he's secretly smuggling them to the subterranean hangar under his island volcano lair...

inevitable syntax ambiguity aside, "deskill-ling" would be a good term for someone who has been de-skilled

They spell it out under their FAQ but I doubt that's legally binding

nah, see, you got

  1. self-aggrandizing unelected bureaucrat
  2. intentionally sabotaging government programs to make his own vanity project look better
  3. blind obsession with deeply-flawed and barely-functional technological monstrosity
  4. claims sole credit for his program's achievements despite, at best, hiring the guy that hired the guy that hired the guy to build the schematic that some other guy gave him
  5. definitely blackmailing his boss
  6. barely committed to his administration's political agenda beyond whatever inflates his own ego
  7. nazi cosplay
  8. not a real face

dude's not Vader, he's Tarkin. Vance is the moody teenager from bumfuck nowhere who suddenly started sucking the spiteful old warlock's dick despite years of going on about how much he hates his whole deal, likely screwing over his wife in the process, making him Vader. and I guess Obi-Wan is Pope Francis because Vance definitely killed him.

How much food and what is it?

...Did we mention it doubles as a convenient dumping ground for mob snitches?

"Eat your dice, Brennan!"

 

9 consecutive songs about heroin can't be wrong

(but they probably should be)

"Frank, are you saying 'soul' or 'hole'?"

 

This Van isn't stoned, but he's still getting high on something

 

A corvette is of course bigger than a sloop but smaller than a dreadnought

 

one must assume the nightfly to be the bitter rival of the butterfly, and this crazy town ain't big enough for the two of them
