Okay one security guard says grass stain.
Also claims not putting on shoes was proof of intoxication.
abc from march 2021
Can you tell if someone is drunk from CCTV footage?
The Security guards said they didn’t realise Higgins was extremely drunk until they saw she was unable to put her slip ons back on.
Have a look at the CCTV again.
She ended up walking down the hall barefooted.
The old thief is a dirty old man and was a dirty young man. Quite appropriate really that his slag wife has a pretend PhD. Everything about them is dishonest and phony.
Yes yes the cabal went into action before there was any hint of anyone claiming to have been assaulted, not to mention most physical evidence would have been on the person claiming to have been assaulted.
Also claims not putting on shoes was proof of intoxication.
Um, they were slip ons.
She was so maggoted she couldn’t even get those back on her feet, though she had a good try.
The Security Guards on duty said she was extremely drunk and there were grass stains on her dress, indicating a fall.
Are you saying they lied?
Great piss taking crotchless. The guards said no such thing; britternee said this and the video showed the opposite: she was as fit and sober as a mallee heifer.
Mmmyes.
Thought as much.
Two instances in the local courts.
1. Defendant assigned legal aid. LA lawyer sits with defendant for five minutes, scribbles some notes and says, “Here. Just read this to the beak.” Defendant fronts the beak who says “Do you have representation?” Defendant says “Yes. She just told me to read this.”
Was the beak impressed?
He was not.
2. Woman takes AVO matter into court, which involves documented threats, unsecured firearms, hints of a stash of unregistered firearms.
Beak asks LA if they can help with representation. LA (sitting in court but not representing anyone) says yes. Beak grants AVO which suspends all contact between woman and kids and ex partner.
Outside court LA brushes woman off, saying magistrate got it wrong and LA wouldn’t touch her case.
…
Now, whatever you think of AVOs in Family Court matters, the LA lawyer can’t simply say “Magistrate got it wrong”. She can say, “Ultimately the AVO may be amended in the Family Court”. But it seemed to me the LA bint was looking for an easy earn.
When (not if, when) the beak finds out about this – which might be next week at golf – he will be none to pleased I think.
If that’s coping it doesn’t mean anything more, like rape, abuse, sexism, discrimination, etc.
Exalting this as a great victory for Slava Ukrainia!, now that’s coping.

I see the pervert apologist is here, despite insisting he’s sooooo busy, yet he clearly can’t stay away from “us lot”.
We might be boring, we might choose to fight boring “culture wars”, but there is much more activity here than at The Pervert Apologist’s Cat, and a wider range of commenters (to the extent that three including the blog owner constitutes a “range”).
We must be kind to the poor boy. He is lonely. Throw him the occasional insult, so he will feel wanted, even if not loved.

Normal Protocol would be to report a naked woman sleeping in an office immediately.
That’s what happened.
So long as no crime had been reported, it’s common sense to steamclean, particularly since it was the Ministers private office.
Went to the kelpie muster at Casterton yesterday- great day, a lot of fun and highly recommended. Traveled on the Glenelg H’way whose condition I’d describe as fair to poor. Just beautiful country though and great people. Denis Napthine was at the muster- sometimes I think he was too nice for the snakes around him and against him. I didn’t mind him as Premier.
A variation of this occurs to me. She was wearing a white cotton/linen dress which looks best with a tan. So she had bronzed up out of a bottle. Left her knickers off and slipped on dress. But lying down on leather sofa would have been diabolical for her favourite dress as warmth and sweat on sofa would cause major staining from tan lotion. So she folded it up neatly over the back of chair and dosed off naked on the sofa.
Likewise, what opposition faced with such an allegation would not have asked questions about it?
Jacqueline Maley clearly has a poor memory. The Opposition under Tony Abbott in re the case of allegations made against (and never resolved) one Bill Shorten.

Corpus Christi

I recently read a piece theorizing that all these stories coming out of the US military (second sources) about crashing UFOs is an intel setup to scare the living daylights out of Russia and China into believing the US has reverse engineered Alien technology and has it ready to use for military purposes. I find this far more plausible than alien craft crashing into earth.
The piece suggests there are enough idiots on the Russian and Chinese side of the fence who would believe this crap. The US has nothing to lose in peddling this crap.

“A circumstantial case based on arriving with a woman who approximately an hour later is found naked on a couch and later complains of being raped. Whether a properly instructed jury would convict or other failures of evidence etc means the case should never be brought are really separate and distinct questions.”
I don’t believe a word Brittany Higgins has ever said or ever will say, she’s a liar. Lehmann has no case to answer, if there was sexual activity on the couch, it was consensual.

Everyone Knows – Ukraine Blew Up the Dam
“Ukraine is so dishonest a government and it is always seeking unlimited money from the West, we really need to overthrow all Western leaders who support Ukraine. There are so many who KNOW that Ukraine blew up the Kakhovka hydroelectric dam because it would cut off the water supply for Crimea. Just like Nord Stream, when that was blown up, they claimed Russia did it, when in fact all Russia had to do was turn off the valve.
Every single source I have said the same thing – UKRAINE did it! There is nobody in that government that will EVER tell the truth. Now Turkey is proposing an international investigation into the action. Of course, Ukraine rejects any investigation into anything including where the money is going or the fact that American weapons are all over the place in the black market.
All my sources have said from inside Ukraine that the Ukrainian losses have exceeded 200,000 troops. Biden finally admits that Ukrainian forces have suffered “significant” casualties as they battle to break through Russia’s defensive lines.
Ukraine has launched a land grab and pretending that the Donbas should be theirs when they hate Russians, and outlaw their language and their religion, is just shocking. Everything East of the Dnieper River was the old Russian Empire of the Tzars. That is why there are Russians living there for centuries. This would be like Mexico invading Texas and ordering everyone to speak only Spanish. The border was simply drawn by Khruschev for administrative purposes during the Soviet Union. It was NEVER Ukrainian people in that region. They never had their own country.
This entire nonsense is a proxy war against Russia and the Russian people. This will only end in World War III and as I have said, ALL of the neighbors of Ukraine do not trust Ukrainians who have always been a ethnic group of pure-blood elitists.
The West is using this as a cover because the monetary system is collapsing. They borrow year after year and have ZERO intention of ever paying off the debt. They are deliberately creating WWIII so they can all default, and shift to this one-world digital currency by the IMF which was announced on the precise day of the Economic Confidence Model confirming that is a major agenda.”

Like everyone (other than the well-informed Mr Case) I’ve no idea what actually transpired on Reynolds’ couch.
Combining the Brinny Account with the cctv and security account it appears thus:
In the space of 45minutes, Lehrmann apparently:
• Somehow reduced Brinny from pissy-giggly to comatose;
• Got her kit off and hopped aboard;
• Was kicked off the job with a bleary gerroffmeyoubastard;
• Daks back up – and out.
Leaving behind, uncontrolled, a nude, dribbly land whale, stretched out unconscious in the Minister’s office, likely to be discovered by security – thus inevitably unleashing the Hounds of Hell on Lehrmann himself.
Risk taking on a J’s Pell-Sacristy Claim scale.
The single juror arguing for this on a ‘beyond reasonable doubt’ basis must have annoyed the shit out of the other 11.

Or was that just pot shots at Armstrong?
Higgins’ shoes were fussy strappy stilettos with a cross-over and tiny buckles. Perfectly obvious from the video and every woman commenting here has seen similar in the shops. Even stone cold sober she’d need a chair to put them back on.
LOL. This was the highbrow strategy of the Hiden administration all along. We’ve always known the setup was to make Hiden appear demented and senile when the hidden truth is that he’s whip smart and wants to do all those things. The Confidence Model confirms all this.

Careful Dot, he’ll accuse you of lying for disagreeing with his magnificence.
Armstrong reckoned he forecast the announcement of a policy to the exact day, using an AI model he programmed himself in 1985, on cycles of days as integer multiples of pi.
Bullshit.
Of course it’s true. Armstrong invented AI in the 80s. He also invented the super computer well before Seymour Cray.

Some here speculate – and that is all anyone but the two involved can do – that Britnah’s advances were rejected, which resulted in her making a complaint as retribution.
There is another ‘woman scorned’ possibility. That is, that consensual folk dancing did take place. However, on the Monday over coffee, when Britnah was expecting a discussion of the next date, Bruce has uttered the fateful words “one off”, or even the cruder “stray root”.
I still lean towards the “nafink happened” theory, but.

Quite so, I said this as soon as the Higgins allegations hit the headlines and I said the same a few weeks later when the fantastic, fabulous, ridiculous, and very absurd Porter allegations hit the headlines.
But no, instead Scott Morrison was PM, a man who always wanted to please and fellate his ideological enemies. Labor were lucky, very lucky.

It is funny how Armstrong rails against central banks but also hates the gold standard and BTC.
What’s his idea? Bretton Woods? LOL!
If he’s advocating a free market in banking, strike me pink (but BTC has already done this in the face of government fiat).
The only other alternatives are that he wants barter, for everyone to make their own coins or Islamic banking.

The judge did not need to abandon the trial. She could have dismissed the juror and accepted 11 – 0. The relevant NSW legislation is more explicit but the ACT law allows for it.

Surely if you truly believe in diversity, there is no such thing as a ‘best fit’.
I see there is an offer to coach for these tests for a fee. I was told years ago that things like the MBTI were unfakeable. My sister is a HR practitioner and was locked into the idea these tests couldn’t be shaped.
I had done the MBTI a few times and pretty much got the same result (which I think was a reasonable assessment). However, the Q&A was pretty transparent I thought.
I bet my sister that not only could I get the reverse of my own type, but I could get any of the 16 types if she gave me the test and the summary of type characteristics as a reference. I got close – three of the four characteristics right, with the other one on the margin.
I think they are a useful self awareness tool, but of limited use in staff selection.

The first trial did not reach a conclusion and, notwithstanding juror misconduct, seemed unlikely to reach a verdict.
What, 11/1 unlikely to reach a verdict?
So unlikely that the one holding out for Guilty junked the trial.
I gathered that from the type of questions you were asking last weekend. All I’ll say about moral scepticism, is that the ‘queerness’ of the moral is simply a manifestation of certain metaphysical positions. As for the difference between moral relativist and skeptic, as I argued last week, the relativist is just a confused moral skeptic.
The judge did not need to abandon the trial. She could have dismissed the juror and accepted 11 – 0.
Wrong.
Again.
While the juror claimed that no other Juror had seen the contraband material, Judge decided that she couldn’t take that risk.

Now, if it hadda been 11-1 to acquit, yeah, she coulda accepted that, but 11-1 Guilty, no, she had to declare MisTrial.
Yeah, ok. I’d still like some bloodhound to ferret out (mixing a few metaphors) who he was, any political/ public service/ old mate connections, social media posts, and family and financial background. Even if no formal or explicit political ties can be shown, things like social media might tell a lot. Someone needs to start shining bright lights into a few dark corners. This seems to have been an act of judicial sabotage in a highly charged politicised trial and the outcome very convenient until recently for one side of politics. In fact it was used to swing a national election. It’s all very grubby, so beyond the Libs.

Plenty of room for speculation. In an ideal world the case would never have near a courtroom but here we are.

All my children did an MBTI as part of an assessment of aptitude for careers. They didn’t try to “game” it, and it was very useful in honing their choices. All were “both sides of the brain” types, and it was hard to pin down exactly where they should focus.
After a false start, one ended up in a job at the upper end of the list. The other two went straight in, law and industrial design.
I would never recommend it for staff selection as it can be manipulated. You get a whiff of what’s required and you’re in. It’s strictly a “good faith” tool and should be part of a suite of tests and interviews.

Does the WHO deserve our trust? The evidence we found points to “no.” From its baffling choice of Director-General to how it gains its funding and prioritizes its expenditures, what we uncover calls their assumed authority into question.
As you continue to hear updates on our international institutions and their efforts to acquire more power, such as through the WHO Pandemic Treaty, remember the words of Juvenal, an ancient Roman satirist: “Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?” which translates to: “Who will watch the watchers?”
Whether our “watchers” are our government, leaders, media, fact-checkers, or anyone else with power over the people and little-to-no accountability, it’s our solemn duty to keep our eyes open.

Government+Pharma+Gates+WEF+WHO+Media
I know that everyone is transfixed by the tawdry tale of the two minor employees in Linda Reynolds office. But I hope some Cats watched the excellent edition of “Outsiders” this morning. The interviews with Ed Dowd and Nigel Farage provided much needed gravitas in the current environment.
Dowd explained that, as an ex Wall St “numbers guy” (& ex Black Rock – ugh!) he recognised that the increasing rise in excess deaths in the records of insurance companies and funeral businesses, indicated a problem with the vaccines, since the rise (from 2021) corresponded with the latter, and not Covid. He is about to tour Australia in support of his recent book on the subject.
Nigel Farage was, as usual, great value. He expressed some concern about the demise of genuine Conservatives & worries that Brexit may be overturned. He seemed to be sprucing the rise of an alternative Party – but we have seen that before.
ummm should have read “spruiking”!!!
Long sigh.
I will bring you my chair, Brittney, so you can put those shoes back on.

Is it part of a pattern of catastrophe, because it’s hard to believe anyone could develop such a destructive skillset so late in life?

Yeah, I think they worked out that ‘someone’ paid a Public Servant an eyewatering amount of money to make sure Luke Shaw was on the jury list for Bjelke-Petersen’s Perjury Trial.
The guy retired immediately the day the Trial opened and moved interstate.
Any way, Shaw was #79 on the list and the defence knocked back every juror until #79, took him and the next 11.
I think there were 2 holdouts, so one of them was a complete fluke.
Anyway, Bjelke lost all his farms but one and supporters were still holding fundraisers 4 years later trying to clear his Legal debts.
And he was already a Millionaire in 1947, so how much did it cost to pay everyone off?
Did he factor into his analysis that during recessions and for years afterwards excess mortality exists?
‘Skier, it’s the Hitler/Jesus nexus.
Usually too much Hitler and not enough Jesus. A work in progress. 😀

Did he factor into his analysis that during recessions and for years afterwards excess mortality exists?
John, I have no idea – you would have to read his book to work that out.
However, given that he rose to the top of the ladder in BlackRock which was dependant on his ability to factor in most relevant data – I would think so!
how does being a financier make you an expert on cause of death?

You add nothing but maybes, probablys, supposseds.

What do you call it when the forest fires in Quebec seem to all start at the same time?
Perfect fire conditions. We see it is Australia every few years. I have lived through it three times in my life -once as a child on our farm in the Upper Hunter, once as an adult in holiday home on the South Coast & most recently on our farm near the Wollemi National Park. Terrifying.
Generally follows good growing season, followed by a Big Dry…….then late Summer, 40+ degree heat & strong westerly (mostly) winds.

I’m not suggesting this guy isn’t smart. My former boss who I never regarded as over the top smart is now a senior exec at Blackrock.
All very well. Can they turn a profit?
rosie – the article you cite provides relevant figures etc.
However, at the end of the day, we all must decide for ourselves. I have heard (& read) Dowd speak on a number of occasions (through the internet). I think he is very impressive and thorough. There are many interests involved in this issue – and a lot of money. This tends to generate impressive and persuasive arguments!
I’m watching Invasion about the world being invaded by aliens.
Why is it that the majority of movies or series where the earth is invaded by aliens, they (the aliens) are always some large species of insect.
My former boss who I never regarded as over the top smart is now a senior exec at Blackrock.
Agree JC. Although the son-in-law of a friend is similarly very high up in Blackrock (hope he doesn’t read this blog !) But he is SUPER smart.
Evidence from Canberra and a few other places suggests women have no special talents when it comes to management. My own anecdotal data points would suggest that in banking female are more ruthless and less trusted than men. And this feedback comes from staff who prefer male bosses.
Hoping that sharing this inconvenient data point will not kill my career …
‘reveals’ what every totally scientific survey about women in the workplace said since 1973,
Those sound like… stories your nana told me.
Please explain what KPIs on ’empathy’ and ‘multitasking’ were measured. Did they ask about ‘spirituality’ as well? How about ‘creating opportunities for women and POC’?
And was this a 360 survey or just 180 – ie did the employers and peers of women managers get a weighted score to emphasise their better perspective of the person’s performance?
I reckon that the joke applies – women have to be twice or three times better than a man and ‘fortunately this is not difficult’ is the punchline. If that were so, we would have pre-selected a high quality sample of women into management to start with, not that women were innately better than men or whatever subset of genders were used as control in this rigorous study.
I don’t make that assumption because very smart people make mistakes.
Overall, 67 per cent of the 2,300 employees surveyed by the British Business Excellence Awards said they believed that female leaders were more effective at their jobs than male bosses.
Sarah Austin, the group’s director, said: ‘The results of the study suggest that promoting and nurturing female leaders can have a positive impact on business performance and employee satisfaction.
‘Women in business have come a long way in shifting outdated stereotypes, but we must continue to push archaic boundaries and make sure we are further represented at the very top of British business.’
OK- British Business Excellence Awards – I wonder what their methodology was.
Some super smart make evil mistakes.
Ted’s gone to hell.
I don’t make that assumption because very smart people make mistakes.
Yep. This blog is testimony to that.
Research: Women and Men Are Equally Bad at Multitasking
More to the point- I wonder what her methodology was.
I launched Sarah Austin Events on International Women’s Day 2021. It felt only appropriate that I should launch on such an important day to empower women and in particular, women in business.
righto
Not a very broad group from which to draw any solid conclusions. And it’s a good bet that this group are hyper-aware of the “women’s do it better” line that everyone in the upper levels of corporate life know to express in public now.
Austen sounds like misandrist with meja contacts.

‘Entirely inappropriate’ for politicians to ask anti-corruption commission to look into Brittany Higgins payout, PM says
Asked about Reynolds’ mention of the Nacc, Albanese said the body would be independent.
One of the things Luigi the Gnome is hoping citizens may not have noticed is that anyone can make a voluntary referral to the NACC.
Even politicians.
“Direction” isn’t an issue.
But is it corruption?
Less very common for the Attorney General to warn off, with menaces, Reynolds, the person with the most critical managerial relationship with Lil’ Brinny – whose conduct is the fundamental basis of her claim.
To the very cynical, the Dreyfus warning almost appears to be aimed at maximising the payola given to a political agent.
Seems to fall into the NACC ‘breach of trust’ and ‘abuse of office’ buckets.
If Team Dutton is scared off by Albanese’s threats, it’s quite possible that an independent concerned citizen might make a referral. The key facts are in the public domain.
Although such a referral is probably doomed to join 973 complaints about Coalition misconduct already sitting in Brereton’s in-tray.
The way the fem-marx shite gets reported like it was fact.
Just another everyday ordinary true blue Aussie battler overcoming adversity feelgood story over at Your ABC (it’s basically Kenny):
(…)
For someone who is apparently terrified of haircuts and the smells and textures of hair products, the amount of styling and colouring that goes into her ugly-arse ‘do suggests she spends a *lot* of time in salons being all overwhelmed and feeling like she’s drowning. I mean, they/their/them/whatever.
I wonder if this person actually has these issues, or maybe – just maybe – Mx Bee Sting is a chronic attention seeker who wants everyone recognising and pandering to all of her stupid, carefully contrived and cultivated deviations from normalcy?
“Multitasking” is very misleading. It all depends on the complexity of the task, the person’s experience and familiarity with the work.
I can “multitask” any number of activities, but most would be muscle memory or simple ones like conversations. Give me something complex, that requires total attention, and that’s all I can do and everyone else can bugger off.
Nailed it.

I guess so Ent. Large alien invading insects would have to be the thing that scares the viewers the most.
There was one movie a few years back where the aliens were octopus-like creatures. When they revealed themselves, they stuck were to a glass wall in the spaceship. Forget the name of the movie. That was more funny than scary, but it wasn’t supposed to be a scary movie.
Y son really dislikes haircuts and shaving. Drives him into an extreme levels of discomfort no matter what we try. Ditto running a brush through up his hair. And he seems u able to rinse his hair properly in the shower even though he is an adult. He is of course, on the spectrum. High functioning is a quite fluid definition unfortunately.
It’s quiet here. We denizens of the Outer Galaxy can party on unmolested by actual conversations.
I liked the one where they looked like really, really hot humans, until you saw them eating live rats and discovered they really had lizard skins underneath.

Hehe, in Year 10 English I got 40/40 for a short SF story I wrote about silicon based lifeforms. From Jupiter but, not Janis IV. I still have it somewhere. In Year 12 I was placed in the lower 30% of the state in English. Go figure.
I had no idea unabomber was autogynephiliac, not given a single mention in the documentary that I can recall.
Nasty, nasty man.
I liked the fillum. Very different feel and emphasis from the novel, but Verhoeven got some nice flavours into it. Clancy Brown as Zim was a fine thing.
Probably has NDIS to pay for it’s hair cut fetish.
I find statements by both Higgins and Lehrmann difficult to believe.
Higgin’s implicit claim that Lehrmann undressed her – I can’t see how a bloke could get that dress off her without tearing it – unless it was consensual.
Lehrmann’s claim that having completed his work that night, that he didn’t check on Higgins or even say goodnight before he left. Who would do that?
Hang on a flash, Mandrake!
Normal Protocol would be to report a naked woman sleeping in an office immediately.
That’s what happened.
So long as no crime had been reported, it’s common sense to steamclean, particularly since it was the Ministers private office.
Key words being if a crime happened, or reported.
Which was proven in a court of law, be very careful about what you type next you arsehat.
Reading Gordon Corrigan’s classic book, “Mud, Blood and Poppycock.”about the British Army, during the First World War.
“At that time, the British Army “Manual of Military Law” laid down that members of the Armed Forces, who commit such violations of the recognised rules of warfare as are ordered by their Government, or by their commanders, are not war criminals and cannot be punished by the enemy. In other words “superior orders” was an absolute defence to prosecution for acts committed in contravention of international law. This paragraph was not deleted from the Manual until April 1944, when it dawned belatedly on the British Government’s legal advisers that such a clause would scupper their plans to try German and Japanese officers and soldiers for war crimes….” (Pages 219 – 220.)
Earlier footage showed her being very “handsy” with him. I can’t know how men think but the signals were there from a female pov.
His physical demeanour from the PH available was lacking in any interest whatsoever, whereas she appeared happy and expectant.
He may have got the Red Signal and scarpered. She’s an adult and can shift for herself.
“I wonder how many other blokes she’s fvcked on this couch?”
Thanks Rosie. If the vaccines were the cause of death and as deadly as so many claim then given so many have had 5 shots the dead should be filling the morgues.
Armstrong with his fabled Socrates has always reminded me of a dude called SpectateSwamp, who back in the day had this “wonderful” desktop search utility that was the butt of much humour amongst developers because it was slllllooooowwwwww, stupid, and didn’t work.
But he made amazing claims for it anyway. Absolutely convinced it was the bee’s knees. And quite aggro if you challenged him.
I’m not aware of him having been jailed for fraud, so there are some points of difference.
Calli, I got the ISTJ result which is the most common category. Ah well, at least I can find a like minded person anywhere.
We should hope it would be independent. Is that what is worrying him?
You can’t say that!

Lehrmann’s claim that having completed his work that night, that he didn’t check on Higgins or even say goodnight before he left. Who would do that?
Someone who had twigged that Mizzz Knickerless was out to score, and was not interested in an office romance?
Hmmm … That’s definitely one for Groogs and the tapes.
Higgin’s implicit claim that Lehrmann undressed her – I can’t see how a bloke could get that dress off her without tearing it –
Higgins didn’t claim that Lehrmann had undressed her.
She acknowledged at Trial that she wasn’t wearing underwear.
Lehrmann’s claim that having completed his work that night, that he didn’t check on Higgins or even say goodnight before he left. Who would do that?
Quagmire.
Lehrmann’s claim that having completed his work that night, that he didn’t check on Higgins or even say goodnight before he left. Who would do that?
Exactly.
Lehrmann asked Renee to hire Higgins because ‘she’s very good looking’, he was seen pashing her by independent witnesses before they caught a cab to PH, and Higgins was extremely drunk.
Security said ‘he left in a bit of a hurry’.
Then contacted her for a meetup on the Monday.
There just aren’t any positives about this guy.
You guys!
As I said, I can’t know how men think. But I get the drift.
She acknowledged at Trial that she wasn’t wearing underwear.
Admit it crotchless, you’re britternee, aren’t you?
Phuck me dead moron still shilling the Britney case.
But she was wearing a dress. Who do you say took the dress off?
Stop upticking your own comments dude. It’s embarrassing.
Do you fear the Power Of Zero?
Calli; it may surprise you that there are those of us who were brought up to believe that ‘taking advantage” of a woman when she was drunk was a pretty low act, but Mademoiselle was expected not to render herself vulnerable by getting so pizzed in the first place.
No. One witness who acknowledged her own intoxication said she thought she saw them pashing. There were several of the work colleagues present, wouldn’t you expect at least a couple of them to have noticed?
It doesn’t surprise me at all, Zulu. One of the Codes Of Conduct.
Chicks had them too…once upon a time in the mists of the past.

Grandpa Cletus
Please roll the CCTV tapes. By your account she claims that Lehrmann did not undress her, so how did she end up naked? Someone took her dress off, and she does not say whom. Either she did (Why?) or a mysterious third party did. (A cleaner checking for used condoms?)
Calli and Crossie I am an ENFJ 3% of us , just wiped my last answer . Trained in MBTI years ago but have a friend who trains it at M S of Business picked me as one.

On the Bar CCTV, she seemed to be giving one other party goer (not Lehrmann) at least a smooch, perhaps even a pash.
The thing I don’t like about the movie starship troopers was the deliberate intent to make the human government fascist right down to the uniforms and operating on jingoistic propaganda.
That was not like the book, where while it was not universal franchise, was all about duty and giving to the community to earn the franchise. You can argue against that system of government, but it isn’t fascist.
But she was wearing a dress. Who do you say took the dress off?
Higgins made no claim that Lehrmann took her dress off.
The issue wasn’t canvassed at Trial, so nobody thought it was of any importance.
Will comment again how can a drunk woman balance on one high heel and remove her shoes . It is much harder to put shoe back on to buckle it up . Doctor son noted this most men would not have a clue I wonder why she didn’t want to see doctor they do blood tests perhaps? Not for alcohol .
