Guilty As Charged

Never doubt the availability When looking for culpability The guilty never wish to admit They are, indeed, the culprit.

It just popped into my mind, so I wrote it, Ann. Sometimes I have no idea where these ideas come from.

Strangely Milt, The captcha was PSS! There is evidence to show their guilt, but they are still not charged! It's mind-boggling how this could happen; sadly, it happens too often and makes a mockery of the law. Take care; I apologise for the captcha; it seemed very apt and worth mentioning.

With modern forensics at the investigators disposal they have a hard time protesting their innocence. Tom
