A very moving article from Inside Higher Education: a community college teacher testifies on behalf of a murdered student. It is easy to forget how wide the ripples of a death can travel.

One thing I found interesting was the defense attorney trying to beat down the teacher. I suppose attacking the victim is the prime technique when you have a guilty client. It obviously didn't work here, or the other evidence was too strong, but would it ever work?
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
