I bookmarked this site 6 September, 1999 on my first visit, with daily visits thereafter.
Dr. Patrick Griffin’s ordeal did not end after the Pulitzer-prize winning account of his acquittal. Christine Jeffreys’ civil suit proceeds.
Has any action been taken against the judge in the original Griffin trial? It looks to me as if she was grossly incompetent if not malicious.
I am proud to say that I have read every single post on this site. You are truly an icon, Walter.
Wow. I’m impressed. Thanks.
About 5 months and I digg your stories almost daily.
I can’t remember for how long, but likely at least five years. And, I can’t remember how I came to know of this site, and I wish I could–who linked me to it…?
Bookmarked and blogrolled since September 2004. Keep up the good work!
