...inquest tries to answer four key questions: who died, when, where and how? It is required by law whenever anyone dies of anything other than natural causes. But Diana and Dodi weren't just anyone. "Much has been written or broadcast [about their deaths]," Baker said, "often showing a disregard for the facts." So along with answering the four key questions, he gave the jury another task: "to allay suspicion and rumor," to give the public a chance to finally find out how Diana and Dodi died and "perhaps to learn lessons for the future...
...Orange. The threat is there against aviation,” the Tech quoted him saying. At her arraignment Friday, Margolis asked for $5,000 cash bail. He said that she refused to explain her sweatshirt to the MassPort employee in Terminal C, and showed “a total disregard to understand the context of the situation she’s in, which is an airport post-9/11.” Simpson’s attorney Ross E.

...incest and of sexual abuse. Sitting in court amid the throngs of reporters and silent church members was Utah attorney general Mark Shurtleff, a Republican and a practicing Mormon, come to offer moral support to his team.

...brutal example, last Christmas Eve a drunken Blackwater employee shot and killed a security guard for a high-ranking Iraqi official. (The contractor made it to the U.S. Embassy, where he was extradited and has yet to be held accountable for any crime.)Further, Blackwater’s disregard for the law has been registered in these other operations. Notably, a formal complaint was lodged against contractors in Afghanistan after a contracted plane crashed in 2004, leaving three United States soldiers dead. In a successful suit filed by the families of the soldiers claiming that the contractors were in violation...
...foreign eyes, it seems insensitive -- even criminally negligent--of Iraq's parliamentarians to take a four-week vacation while their country struggles with monstrous problems and their countrymen cope with the 110F (43C) heat. But to Iraqis, callous disregard is pretty much exactly what they have come to expect from their politicians. Some of the most prominent Iraqi politicians spend little time in the country, much less in parliament. Egregious absenteeism cuts across sectarian and ethnic lines: perennial no-shows include Shi'ite elder Ibrahim al-Jaafari, Sunni leader Saleh Mutlak and secular stalwarts Iyad Allawi and Adnan...
