Supreme Court strikes down ban on virtual child pornography - Anne Gearan 4/16/02 "The Supreme Court struck down a law banning virtual child pornography Tuesday, ruling that the First Amendment protects pornography or other images that only appear to depict real children engaged in sex. The 6-3 ruling is a victory for both pornographers and artists such as moviemakers." http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/news/archive/2002/04/16/national1 009EDT0583.DTL Mr_ Bubbles and Ralph Underwager on Australia 60 Minutes - Witness for Mr. Bubbles Transcribed from "Australia 60 Minutes," Channel Nine Network (Aired on August 5, 1990 in Australia) Produced by Anthony McClellan; Reported by Mike Munro ""Reporter: Let me read it to you, this is what you said in court: "Children up to age ten or eleven simply do not have the capacity to think abstractly. . . Underwager: Right Reporter: and to consider what's true Underwager: Yes. Reporter: So in effect, you're saying that, these children, in the Bubbles case, aged three and four, were too young to understand the truth. Underwager: No, not at all. What you are doing is distorting and twisting the language that a psychologist would use. Reporter: In relation to the Bubbles hearing, there were statements from children saying -- which I'm sure you read -- what happened to them, there was positive ID of Tony Deren as Mr. Bubbles, by a number of children, plus the fact that at least five of the children, and all girls, were positively physically abused. Where you aware of the medical evidence? At the time? Underwager: I have not reviewed the file that I had at that time..." http://www.nostatusquo.com/ACLU/NudistHallofShame/MrBubbles.html Ralph Underwager Expert Testimony - State of Minnesota v. Deloch, 1990 WL 48536 (Minn.App.), April 24, 1990 "....The trial court did not err in excluding Dr. Underwager's testimony about learned memory. The record does not establish that the scientific basis for his theory is reliable and broadly accepted in its field. Furthermore, the basic rule is that expert testimony, to be admissible, must be helpful to the jury, and we conclude that Dr. Underwager's testimony..... would not necessarily be helpful. Dr. Underwager's testimony would tend to inappropriately interfere with the role of the jury in assessing credibility. No evidence exists that Dr. Underwager's testimony would add precision or depth to the jury's conclusions.... Dr. Underwager's testimony was excluded precisely because its helpfulness to the jury was seriously questioned. The trial court correctly excluded Dr. Underwager's testimony. The evidence is sufficient to support the convictions." http://www.nostatusquo.com/ACLU/NudistHallofShame/Underwager4.html Lawyers: More Abuse Victims Surface By GREG SUKIENNIK .c The Associated Press BOSTON (AP) - More than 450 people have come forward claiming they were sexually abused by Boston-area priests as a widening scandal engulfs the nation's fourth-largest Roman Catholic diocese, lawyers said. http://www.accessatlanta.com/ajc/news/0402/12mckinney.html The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: 4/12/02 McKinney implies Bush knew of Sept. 11 plot The Washington Post WASHINGTON -- Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.) is calling for an investigation into whether President Bush and other government officials had advance notice of terrorist attacks on Sept. 11 but did nothing to prevent them. She added that "persons close to this administration are poised to make huge profits off America's new war." In a recent interview with a Berkeley, Calif., radio station, McKinney said: "We know there were numerous warnings of the events to come on September 11th. ... What did this administration know and when did it know it, about the events of September 11th? Who else knew, and why did they not warn the innocent people of New York who were needlessly murdered? ... What do they have to hide?" McKinney declined to be interviewed Thursday, but she issued a statement saying: "I am not aware of any evidence showing that President Bush or members of his administration have personally profited from the attacks of 9-11. A complete investigation might reveal that to be the case." http://news.independent.co.uk/world/middle_east/story.jsp?story=285413 Amid the ruins of Jenin, the grisly evidence of a war crime Phil Reeves in Jenin 16 April 2002 A monstrous war crime that Israel has tried to cover up for a fortnight has finally been exposed. Its troops have caused devastation in the centre of the Jenin refugee camp, reached yesterday by The Independent, where thousands of people are still living amid the ruins. A residential area roughly 160,000 square yards about a third of a mile wide has been reduced to dust. Rubble has been shovelled by bulldozers into 30ft piles. The sweet and ghastly reek of rotting human bodies is everywhere, evidence that it is a human tomb. The people, who spent days hiding in basements crowded into single rooms as the rockets pounded in, say there are hundreds of corpses, entombed beneath the dust, under a field of debris, criss-crossed with tank and bulldozer treadmarks. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
