What if a man beat his girlfriend's baby to death?

They would either set his bond at a million dollars or be held without bond.

We're not living in the 50's anymore but the system remains the same.

A beauty queen named Trinity Madison Poague was released on $75,000.00 bond after being accused of beating her boyfriend's 18 month old baby to death.

As I stated earlier, attractive women get punished much less.

Well, we're not living in the 50's anymore are we Lotterologist ?

Possibly because of her age and maybe being coerced into to it had a factor in that decision.

You can't buy that type of ticket on-line.

Massachusetts last I knew doesn't even have on line sales.

Our instant tickets here in KY are totally different than scratch tickets in the store. In addition you get to wager, if you will, how much you want to spend. One was twenty cents all the way up to $20.00. Then the computer 'scratches' the ticket to see how much you won.

That's why you should never cook and use the toilet at the same time.

A man under the influence of anger doesn't laugh like that.

However, some angry sheeple will down vote my posts.

And Confucius also said:

If a man be under the influence of anger his conduct will not be correct .

I guess washed up alleged Hollywood celebrities expect a pass here.

Yeah, I can see from his posting history he's got a mission. I'm done replying.

Confucius also say, silence is a true friend who never betrays.

Confucius say, When fools hear the truth, they get mad; when wise men hear the truth, they learn and become wiser.

Your immature insult shows you got mad when you heard the truth.

Exactly. You are wasting your time with that low self esteem cuckold who stays up all night ranting about women.

The court made the right decision on the equities.

Anyway, the woman tried to steal 3 million and got a slap on the wrist.

Another day in America...

And to think, i've heard of guys getting life for stealing a candy bar.

The American public is like the audience on the Maury show.

They castigate the men and are always on the women's side.

When the women accuse the men, they always believe them, and when Maury says, You are NOT the father ,

they coddle the woman and give her sympathy , when after playing the victim , she runs backstage and cries.

Apples and oranges. These cases are very different in terms of success rate, length of time running the scam, number of victims, and presence of an exploding briefcase, just to name a few.

Lotterologist — Tue, 13 Feb 2024 00:28:01 GMT

I'm sure that I can find cases where men were punished harshly for similar crimes.

Let's see if Wayne and Dwayne will receive probation .

My guess is that they won't for more reasons than one.

Comment #15

Lotterologist — Tue, 13 Feb 2024 00:17:50 GMT

Anyone who can't see that the courts are biased in favor of women are either lying or not paying attention. There are cases all over the internet where women get probation and men get 30 years for the same crime.

I agree. Anyone who actually read the facts could tell it had nothing to do with her gender. She was given a second chance so hope she uses it wisely.

Give me money lottery ticket or I will tear and burn you!!!

Nooo I cannot for I belong to another.

I think the leniency is due to the fact that the attempt failed and she never got a cent from the lottery. She is lucky someone at the lottery decided at the last second to make sure she was the actual winner. I completely agree with her lawyer that she would have come to a bad end if she had actually gotten her hands on that much money, and I hope she can turn her life around.

Lotterologist — Mon, 12 Feb 2024 20:24:52 GMT

Since the woman had the ticket, she had the most to lose. Therefore, not attracting attention by arguing may have been more to her benefit.

Luckily, she had her I am a woman card, so she will not be punished and they'll believe anything she says.

I bet the ticket got wet and someone tried to dry it with something that got too hot.

It takes two to argue. They both should have put a lid on it, and definitely shouldn't have tried to use the ticket as rolling paper.

Comment #7

Lotterologist — Mon, 12 Feb 2024 19:13:48 GMT

I once had a woman who used to tell me, I don't like to argue.

I later learned that meant right or wrong, she was to always have things her way.

Lotterologist — Mon, 12 Feb 2024 18:40:55 GMT

As the Hindu proverb states, A house where there is strife cannot prosper.

She might have gotten away with it if she wasn't prone to arguments.

What aroused the lottery's suspicion was the ticket being torn and burned. Their arguing just made the lottery officials suspect them more.

Comment #5

cottoneyedjoe — Mon, 12 Feb 2024 18:22:24 GMT

I always thought it was mind boggling that only their public arguing tipped off the lottery to investigate her right after claiming it. I wonder how long she would have gotten away with it if she and Reddem had waited until they got back in the car to argue. Or if she would ever have been caught at all?

It's crazy that the lottery's first step wasn't interviewing her and reviewing the retailer's security footage for such a large prize.

Comment #4

Lotterologist — Mon, 12 Feb 2024 18:02:38 GMT

She must be attractive. Statistically, attractive women get punished much less.

As a guy who watches old TV shows, I noticed on the 50's TV show, Gunsmoke, that attractive female criminals get away with what male criminals can't. The marshal, Matt Dillon and his assistant, Chester, always cowtow to women.

When it comes to the system, I guess it's always been that way.

That's a light punishment considering how much she was trying to steal; when the story broke I was expecting major jail time...

Maybe she'll turn her life around...hope so.

Thankfully the store won't lose its lottery license since it was an isolated incident. Maybe her and the store have parted ways.

Lottery Post — Mon, 12 Feb 2024 13:34:37 GMT

A Massachusetts store clerk embroiled in the unique case involving a $3 million lottery ticket admitted Friday that she tried to cash in on the winnings, despite knowing they belonged to someone else.

Carly Nunes, 24, had a choice when she discovered the ticket had been left behind. The decision she made resulted in multiple criminal charges of larceny and fraud.

In Brockton Superior Court on Friday, Nunes admitted there was enough evidence to find her guilty of one of those felony indic... [ More ]
