King Siblings

Sibling rivalry never seems to stop, but this is ridiculous.  How dare anyone want to sale for profit items that were so important to their parents?  Are you so desperate for money?  Go to work, check out new investments, but do not make a mockery of your father's legacy. First and foremost, children are parents most prized possessions, not things; but at the same time children should want to hold onto certain items which were relevant to their parents.  Children should honor the memory of their parents, stop bickering and acting like spoiled brats.  All that your father fought for you ridicule and trivialize with your ignorant behavior.  Shame on you!  You should be able to settle your differences amongst yourselves.  You should not be so desperate for money that you would want to sale 'sacred items' and stealing from the memorial is disgraceful.  Furthermore, what right would any board have to demand for a child to turn over personal items which rightfully belong to the child?  The bible and the Nobel prize medal are both family heirlooms, not to be shared with the world -- they belonged to her father and they are relevant to her.  Bernice should not have to relinquish them to the memorial. As stated, some things are sacred and should not be shared.  People get a grip!Martin Luther King Jr.'s children in court over his Bible, Nobel Prize http://fw.to/WvEc0mg

White Collar Crime

Well, it would seem that the more you steal and break the law the more lenient the judges are. In fact they are so lenient that instead of upholding and enforcing the law they mock it with comments such as 'ridiculous' or 'totally inappropriate' and feel that those who have committed the crime are undeserving of the imposed sentencing guidelines, thereby deeming it necessary to lessen the penalty because the culprits are such 'law-abiding citizens' and no 'real harm was done. The judges will look at their past history: civic duties, military service,board positions, letters from friends and rule that the culprit should not be held accountable for the actual crime committed. No mention of being held to a higher standard because you are in a post which expects you to be honorable and just. I am having a hard time in understanding how these judges feel that no harm was done. Maybe it is just me, but it seems that the more money you steal the safer you are. There is always 'plausable deniability' to hide behind and there never seems to be any mention of RETURNING the ill-gotten gain. Furthermore, judges seem to think that sentencing guidelines are "TOTALLY INAPPROPRIATE" (U.S. District Judge Mark Davis). Disgraced former Gov. Bob McDonnell only received two years on 13 felony counts by U.S. Dist Jdge James Spencer who felt the sentencing guidelines were 'ridiculous'. Wayne Perry was found guilty on 4 counts each of health care fraud and aggravated identity theft and one count of altering records. Judge Davis sentenced him to five years and three months. I am sure that neither couple will serve one prison day. Only in America.
