Joe talks about the destruction of the FL condo, which appears to be more complex than what we had previously discussed. The building was more robust than thought, having withstood hurricane-force winds in the past. The rapidity of the demolition of the remainder raises questions of its own about the destruction of the evidence from the earlier collapse, which bears signs of having been a controlled demolition along the lines of WTC-7 on 9/11. A Judge in Minnesota has order Minneapolis to increase its police force in response to a suit brought by 8 citizens, which (in the Court's opinion) would likely have prevailed at trial. And the release of Bill Cosby reflects that, even though it was morally repugnant for him to be free after serving only 2 of a 3-10 year sentence, the violation of his legal rights was clear and unequivocal, which meant that, in this case, the outcome dictated by the law stood in contrast to the alternative outcome that would have been morally appropriate.
