    Good thing judicial Mulligans aren’t allowed here. What is curious, is what’s in it for the Italians. From all accounts I’ve seen, there is no new evidence to support the redo. It appears to be simplay a matter someone deciding they didn’t like the outcome the first time.

    Oh, those Italians.

    I think they’re going for best two out of three. Convicted, acquitted, and ???

    This is the same country that convicted a bunch of scientists for not predicting an earthquake. So, no surprises here.

    Mussolini would be proud.

    The US has double jeopardy protections. They’re not going to extradite an acquitted person.

    Mojo;I was thinking she should give up her citizenship and
    ask for asylum as a displaced
    refugee.Double jeopardy might not influence the US government anymore,although it should.
    She could asylum quicker than
    a US citizen could get help from our pathetic governmemt.
