Comments on: What the Hell is a "Person of Interest"? http://thestressblog.com/2006/11/01/what-the-hell-is-a-person-of-interest/ Scott Horton\'s Blog Wed, 10 Mar 2010 16:54:17 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: charlie ehlen http://thestressblog.com/2006/11/01/what-the-hell-is-a-person-of-interest/comment-page-1/#comment-9341 charlie ehlen Thu, 02 Nov 2006 12:50:56 +0000 http://thestressblog.com/2006/11/01/what-the-hell-is-a-person-of-interest/#comment-9341 Mr. Bovard sounds to be correct. A "person of interest" is one that the government wants to fuck with, but has little or no evidence agsinst him. One could say this vague phrase about every person on this planet. Hey, W. Gump just fits that "person of interest" deal to a tee! So does Cheney! How do I turn them in? Hell, I don't even care if I don't get a reward, just investigate the hell out of them. Lock them away for an indeterminate time. No more messy habeas corpus to fool with now thanks to the MCA. Mr. Bovard sounds to be correct.

I forget the name. He lived with his mom and I think they found dirty mags in her house or something. This was leaked to the press. He was innocent. I think later they discovered Eric Rudolph did it. Basically it is when they want to call someone a "SUSPECT" but without calling him a SUSPECT because that term is specific. Person of interest is nice and vague.

But I think I got ripped off - they charged $30 for a wooden frame that Wal-Mart sells for $8. My law degree is worth every cent of the $49.99 I paid for it.
