No, I haven't really tried. I don't want to spend one more painful moment. I know (forgiving him is) what I should do. I just don't think I can let that go right now.
With every story that TV covers, somebody - some corporation, some shareholders - are making money. That's true whether covering Libya, Iraq, the tsunami in Japan, Osama bin Laden, whatever story there is. That day, the shareholders are making money off it. Every newspaper that's sold, somebody's making a dime.
It's my understanding, ... that there has been rampant looting. In fact, martial law declared in other areas. Have you seen looting?
OK,'' said Jim Hammer, the former San Francisco prosecutor who is now a commentator for Fox, watching the truck roll in.
As a prosecutor, I got a paycheck for coming to work every day. I didn't get a promotion when I won, and I didn't get a demotion when I did a bad job.
You see, some lawyers have the talent, have the charisma, but no discipline. They come into court unprepared, without having done their research.
What joy would I get from putting the wrong person behind bars?
Look, the justice system is made up of people. People have faults. It's not perfect.
When you have a child victim, I don't think cameras should be in the courtroom, ever.
To suggest that you can't be both a mother who is completely in love with her babies, and a professional who is tough and tenacious, is ridiculous.
Listen, when somebody says, 'I take the fifth,' well, you know, they did something, OK? Why else would they take the fifth?
I grew up in a courtroom kind of like the one you saw in 'To Kill a Mockingbird' - big, big courtroom, sometimes it didn't even have air conditioning.
I went nearly 30 years without being able to really seriously entertain marriage or a family. In fact, the word 'marriage' would actually give me a shake when it was brought up.
All the criticism and all of the praise, it doesn't - it's not worth the salt that goes on my bread, because TV is fickle. You can be loved one day and hated the next day. One day, you're getting an award. And the next day, you're getting a death threat.
