I've been a prosecutor for over 20 years, have a particular interest in Domestic Violence (worked in DV Unit for 9 years). I enjoy reading and answering questions in the Law & Ethics, Law Enforcement & Police, and Words & Wordplay sections. **PLEASE NOTE** that anything I post on the legal forums is NOT legal advice, nor does it represent any official position or anyone's opinion but my own. It's about the same as what I'd tell you if we struck up a friendly conversation at a party and you had a question about the law, or about how the criminal justice system works. The law is different everywhere, and everyone's situation is unique. No one should make an important legal decision based upon what is posted here, or in any other online forum. If you need legal advice, hire a lawyer or get a public defender or legal aid attorney. For fun, I enjoy reading, movies, and computer stuff. I'm a bit of a word geek (hence the Words & Wordplay interest), and I love to write.
