Proctor became the lead investigator after state police were called in because Albert has a brother with the Canton Police Department. But Proctor's own connection with other witnesses were called into question at the trial. Proctor acknowledged that he is close with his sister, Courtney, who is friends with Julie Albert, the homeowner's sister-in-law.

The trooper came under fire after testifying about texts he sent during the investigation to friends, family members and colleagues, including superiors with the state police.

In them, he called Read a "whack job" and a "c***," made disparaging remarks about medical conditions, and said he had found "no nudes so far" when going through her phone.

When a friend said they were "sure the owner of the house will receive some s***," Proctor replied, Nope, homeowner is a Boston cop, too."

She isn't, but you're right the others involved were. The trial itself didn't exactly paint them in a great light. The lead investigator texted that he was going through her phone looking for nudes, the security footage from Canton PD somehow happened to become mirror imaged yet weirdly the timestamps weren't, the entire investigation itself was an absolute shit show (red solo cups are totally fine for blood evidence, right?) the homeowner (cop) got rid of his dog, destroyed his phone, refloored his basement (possible crime scene), sold the house for $50k under value, and according to him "butt dialed" a potential co-conspirator during sex with his wife at 2am while a dead man was on his lawn. Said butt dialed was "butt answered" according to the ATF agent he was calling who then butt hung up before butt dialing him back.

Outside the courthouse, cheers erupted from Read’s pink-clad supporters in a driving rain

Judge Beverly Cannone declared a mistrial in the Karen Read murder case Monday after jurors said they remained deadlocked following nearly a week of deliberations.

“To continue to deliberate would be futile,” the jury foreman wrote in a note to the judge. In a note earlier Monday, the foreman wrote that the panel was “deeply divided.”

“Despite our commitment to the duty entrusted to us, we find ourselves deeply divided by fundamental differences in our opinions and state of mind,” the juror wrote. “The divergence in our views are not rooted in a lack of understanding or effort, but deeply held convictions that each of us carry ultimately leading to a point where consensus is unattainable. We recognize the weight of this admission and the implications it holds.”

Ah! Thank you! That's why the commentators were concerned about damaged bikes then!

Edit to add I'm pretty sure I upvoted you but it's still only showing one, sorry not sure what is going on.

 

New to watching, keep hearing people talk about tomorrow's race being a "flag to flag" and to me that just sounds like any race since there's a green starting flag and checkered finish flag. What am I misunderstanding?

Ah ok, thanks. I'll look into it!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Ouch, yeah I hadn't thought about that but will for sure. Sounds like a bad time!

Awesome, I'll take a look. Thanks!

Tank bags are one of those black magic things I'm still hesitant about. What's your experience? Any scratches on the tank?

Edit to add: I usually wear a backpack for clothes and stuff for a few nights going somewhere, but it gets a little uncomfortable after an hour or so. Ideally I'd like to not have to wear the backpack at all but I guess at the very least a tank bag would lighten the load.

Thanks, I'll check it out!

Eh, don't really want a rack on my bike. Thanks though.

 

MT-09 owner, no rack/bars/brackets back there just the passenger pegs to strap to. Any luggage suggestions?

He'll get Jarno Trulli to hold up the field for Lance.

Fucking race director at the end.

Yeah, it's just disqualification of lead prosecution leading to the case being punted another year, why should anyone give a shit?

Looking at the Denali soundbomb, wondering if anyone here has and likes/dislikes it or has a suggestion of another horn to look at.
