Outrageous post designed to generate publicity?  Nope!  You couldn't make this stuff up even if you tried. Times are changing but not as fast as technology.  The Japanese have created robots so similar to human's that sex orientated businesses want to cash in.  Some of the so called moral majority want to end such practices before they get started.  Suddenly Houston, a progressive city, is thrust into the national spotlight. Mayor Sylvester Turner wants the City Council to modify Houston's rules on sexually oriented businesses in order to prevent a "robot brothel" from opening.  

The move will not be unopposed.  Toronto company, KinkySdollS previously announced the plan to open the Houston branch where "adult love dolls" constructed of synthetic skin would be available "to rent before" purchase.   As the storefront was being constructed, City inspectors shut it down claiming the Richmond and Chimney Rock location did not have the proper permits.  The Houston City Council must now decide if the sexually oriented business regulations will permanently bar the opening of the store.  Strip clubs have been barred from operating within 1,500 feet of schools, churches, daycares, parks and residential areas.  Council members such as Mike Laster want to do the same with the robot business since the proposed store is close to Anderson Park. "District J deserves better" is the repeated battle cry.

Adult "arcade device" is a tricky definition to comprehend but it likely will be construed to include more than peep shows.  The dolls cost $4,000, a steep price for most.  Thus the appeal for rental of the anthropomorphic machines.  While sales will may be permitted, the ban of the storefront and rental will clearly hurt KinkySDollS if the City of Houston is successful. ......................................

Leave Them Kids Alone... ~by Legal Pub

Pink Floyd warned teachers to "Leave them kids alone;" however, perhaps he should have directed his warning toward priests.  A Pennsylvania grand jury report apparently identifies more than 300 "predator priests" who allegedly molested children in six dioceses.  Even worse, it accuses the Catholic church of trying to cover up the abuse. The report was generated as a result of a massive investigation of clergy sexual abuse.  If it is to be believed, the past has been corrupted with widespread sexual abuse by clergy and concealment of the problem.  Allegations were considered that pertained to the dioceses that serve more than half the state's 3.2 million Catholics.

The report apparently identifies more than 300 "predator priests." The report also accuses the Catholic church leaders of ignoring victims in order to protect the church. A redacted version of the report over 850 pages in length is available to the public.  Legal Pub cautions that all accused are to be considered innocent unless otherwise proved in court (or the fires of hell.)  In the meantime, can children be treated like more than "just another brick in the wall?"   

DNA is Turning the Tide in Solving Cold Cases ~by Legal Pub

DNA is a game changer!  The Golden State Killer was a serial killer stopped in his tracks by DNA. The GSK, otherwise known as 72 year-old Joseph James DeAngelo Jr., was recently fingered for serial murders based upon sophisticated DNA technology. DeAngelo may be tried for as many as 12 murders and 46 rapes that occurred over a time span of  1976 to 1986 in the California area. DeAngelo may never have been caught in the absence of advancement in DNA analysis.  Similarly, the Grim Sleeper, another deranged individual, was allegedly caught because of DNA left on a slice of pizza.

Now we turn to our most recent miraculous DNA fingering in Indiana where Johnny Miller joins the list of accused based on DNA analysis.  Miller allegedly confessed to raping and strangling April Tinsley in 1988.  Tinsley was only 8-years-old.  Apparently, Millers's DNA was left on April's body as well as on threatening notes he used to taunt authorities.  CeCe Moore, a genealogist, allegedly helped track down Miller as a probable suspect.  Similar techniques are used to help an adoptee track down his or her natural parents.  Using public data bases, a family tree can be used to locate a person's identity based upon age, physical traits, and location.
Fort Wayne Police and Indiana State Police detectives had John D. Miller under surveillance at his mobile home in the 13700 block of Main Street in Grabill. Contrary to some of the poster's theories, he lived alone.On July 6, police secretly collected trash from Miller’s residence which included three used condoms. Indiana State Police Laboratory analyzed for DNA. On July 9, Indiana State Police lab confirmed that the DNA profile extracted from the condoms in Miller’s trash matched the DNA profiles of the condoms found in 2004 and the DNA found in Tinsley’s underwear. Game over. Fort Wayne Police Det. Brian Martin and Indiana State Police Det. Clint Hetrick arrested Miller at his home. When police asked him if he knew why they wanted to talk with him, Miller reportedly said, “April Tinsley.”

The Zodiac Killer, accused of killing many in the Northern California region remains at large.  Given the increasing popularity of "familial DNA" and public websites, it is only a matter of time before law enforcement will have access to almost everyone's DNA.  Gven the advances of DNA forensics, this Zodiac Killer psycho will likely be apprehended soon.

All suspects must be presumed innocent unless otherwise convicted in a court of law!

President Trump is Not the Only Person Who Tweets ~by Legal Pub

Pauley Perrette tweets.  She has left a twitter impression that she quit the show NCIS after 15 seasons because of more than one "physical assault."  CBS Television Studios has responded with its own press release:  "Pauley Perrette had a terrific run on NCIS and we are all going to miss her... Over a year ago, Pauley came to us with a workplace concern.  We took the matter seriously and worked with her to find a resolution. We are committed to a safe work environment on all our shows."

 Perrette played forensic scientist Abby Sciuto.  She was a popular character whose last appearance on the popular show recently occurred.   Pauley Perrette felt the need to inform her followers on twitter that the "tabloid articles out there that are telling total lies about me."

Perrette also tweeted that "a very rich, very powerful publicity 'machine'"  was spreading false information about her.  Pauley Perrette 

Pauley Perrette has not publicly identified who allegedly assaulted her. For more information as it develops, follow Pauley Perrette twitter account.   

Canada Has Cowardly Idiots Too! ~by Legal Pub

What have we learned about Alek Minassian?  That Canada has idiot cowards too.  The 25 year-old intentionally drove a rented van onto a pedestrian walk way on Yonge Street in Canada killing ten people and injuring several others.

Courtesy of LinkedIn, the murderer is pictured below.

Why does a murder like Alek Minassian even have a LinkedIn profile? The accused claims to be a student at Seneca College in North York (North of Toronto). He apparently had no criminal record.

Prior to his arrest, Minassian lived in Richmond Hill a suburb of Toronto.  The heinous actions of Minassian apparently injured 15 people along with killing another ten.  Many of the victims have yet to be identified. One of the first of the deceased identified was beautiful Anne Marie D'Amico who worked at Invesco, an investment management company. D'Amico also volunteered on a humanitarian housing project in developing countries.  

It is unknown whether Minassian knew any of the victims or what the hell he was thinking when he killed these innocent people. Toronto Police Chief Mark Saunders was unwilling to speculate about a motive.  However, he labeled Minassian's actions as "deliberate."  Other anonymous sources suggest that the accused was a social misfit like mass murderer "Elliot Rodger" who was routinely rejected by women. Others simply suggest that he was a loner.   

Cellphone video on social media shows a man stepping out of a white van with a damaged front end that is stopped on the sidewalk. He appears to yell, "Kill me!" 

 LISTEN

00:00 01:29

 Minassian is scheduled to make a court appearance Tuesday at 10 a.m. ET.  While he must be presumed innocent until otherwise shown in a court of law, this individual needs to be made an example of how cowards should be punished if he is convicted.

When Will School Madness Stop? ~by Legal Pub

When will the madness stop?  Shooting up a school is a cowardly way to deal with one's problems.  Great Mills High School is the latest to experience a shooting.  The school security guard shot and killed an armed student who shot two other students. St. Mary's County Sheriff Tim Cameron said the school resource officer shot the assailant in a hallway just before classes began. The shooter was armed with a handgun.  The gunman was pronounced dead, and the officer was not injured.   A male student, 14, is in stable condition.  Unfortunately, a 16 year-old female student, is in critical condition. 

Suddenly the news is no longer shocking.  After all, this is the 17th school shooting in the United States since January 1!  When does the madness stop?  This involved a pistol, not an assault rifle.  There does not appear to be an easy way to educate young people that this is not an appropriate way to solve problems. A shooter of unarmed students is not a hero.  Seeking counseling.  Seek help.  After that, if you still need to end your own life, end it without harming others.  Perhaps then you will be properly mourned.  But to end your life as a murderer is not only a waste of your life, it is a waste of humanity.  

25th Amendment v. Fire & Fury ~by Legal Pub

Politics is a topic Legal Pub prefers to avoid.  But Rule of Law requires educated citizens and electorate.  Consequently, when mainstream media starts to spread misleading information about "law," education is in order. What is all the rage about the 25th Amendment to the United State Constitution?  "Fire and Fury" a controversial book by Michael Wolff indicates that the amendment was brought up "all the time" in the White House.  Steve Bannon suggest it is a plausible way that President Donald Trump may be forced to step down.  So what is this amendment?  On its face, it a mechanism to remove a President who has impaired mental faculties. 

More specifically, Section 4 of the 1967 amendment, allows for the vice president plus a majority of either a president's Cabinet or Congress to transmit to the Senate president pro tempore and the House speaker "their written declaration that the president is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office."  A sitting U.S. president may; however, inform the Senate president pro tempore and House speaker that no such inability exists. The president would then remain in office unless the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet or Congress provides those members of Congress with a written declaration that the president is still unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.  This puts the matter before Congress.

Once before Congress, both chambers of Congress must vote on whether the president is able to carry out his duties. A two-thirds vote in both chambers is required to remove the president from office. In reality, it is unlikely that a Cabinet would ever initiate such a proceeding.  Furthermore, nothing in the 25th Amendment contains a means to prevent a sitting president from firing Cabinet members who feel he is unfit to serve.  Consequently, the only likely way to remove a sitting president under the 25th Amendment would be if the procedure was initiated by Congress and had a 2/3 vote of the Congress agreeing to the removal. 

So, when Steve Bannon says the 25th Amendment is the biggest threat to the Trump presidency, was is all just a ploy to sell books?
