I thought this was a thread discussing the "Open letter from Ronnie Barrett" that was brought to our attention by TreeDoc. LOL Would you like to enter the chatroom and discuss it? If so, I am around almost all day and night today unless the fiance finds a mattress that she likes and wants me to go take a look at it.
All kidding aside, convictions for murder without a dead body are based on what we call circumstantial evidence. There is very little direct evidence in a murder trial unless the police are lucky enough to find a person that actually witnessed the murder or if the police were lucky enough to witness the murder. Even a dead body isn't really direct evidence because all it shows it that somebody was killed, it has to be connected to the killer either through direct or circumstantial evidence.
I agree that we shouldn't give up anything that we have right now. In fact, I think they should slacken some of the concealed carry laws, but that probably wouldn't happen in Maryland.
