BZZZZT!! Wrong as usual! Also, it's rather sad & disturbing that I'm not shocked in the least to see you defending a wife-beater.

You. Are. Made. Of. Fail.

Quote:Can the police arrest someone for domestic violence on the basis of a video?
Case Details: The act of domestic violence was was caught on video tape, but the police were not called and no one wants to press charges.

If the state chooses to pursue charges against you, the police can arrest you regardless of when the domestic violence took place. When the state gets involved in a domestic violence situation, they can pursue charges whether the victim wishes to or not. The victim can express their wishes about not pursuing charges but the final decision will be up to the state. The determination will be based on what evidence the state has which could include emails, texts, and video.

As I understand it, this is common among abuse victims. Having either been abused as a child, or witnessing the abuse of a mother or mother-figure as a child, the girl is very likely to grow up and seek out abusive companions. The money will make little difference, although his fame and popularity may continue to shield him if he abuses her further, a fate that may have been changed by the amount of negative publicity that he is receiving. Nicole Brown-Simpson's husband was wealthy and famous and abused her for years. His money and fame probably did not mean much to her when he finally stabbed her to death.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
