At this point, I am not going to dwell on Jane Doe's identity any more than is necessary. Unfortunately she had to be identified, for reasons of public interest: to erode the fallacious premise that anyone who ever claims any sort of victimhood -- no matter how unvetted, and no matter the countervailing evidence -- is entitled to permanent anonymity via specious judicial decree. And thereafter enabled by a compliant, ideologically-captive media. But please do not harass her, her family, or anyone else associated with her. I'm serious. I wish her no harm. I feel bad for her in a way. Yes, I know the seven guys have been brutally harassed and faced awful consequences. I primarily blame the sleazebag plaintiff's lawyers for this debacle of an outcome. Sure, Jane Doe has agency in the matter. But I don't wish to impugn her personally. I honestly wish her the best. I don't think this should define the rest of her life.

Eric Schmitt: "Did you or did you not fall in love with a Native American woman who could talk to willow trees and paint with all the colors of the wind?" Jack Smith: "That was John Smith."

Wow... the legal profession’s pushback on AI is starting to get a lot more serious. 👀 And this one is very interesting. A Florida lawyer is facing possible sanctions for suspected AI use even though there were no fake cases or hallucinated citations. The cases were real. The citations were real. The court’s issue was basically: did a lawyer actually think through and write this? In Lisandrillo v. Palozzi, the 4th DCA tore into a series of filings in a divorce/custody case, calling them unfocused, scattershot and, at points, basically gibberish. Judge Robert Gross wrote: “An AI supercomputer would struggle to find meaning in some of the prose used in this case.” The court suspected the filings had been put together using AI instead of through the lawyer’s own independent professional judgment. It then ordered the lawyer to explain within 10 days, specifically WITHOUT USING AI, why she shouldn’t be sanctioned or referred to The Florida Bar. The lawyer has publicly denied using AI to generate the filings. The underlying message from the court seems pretty clear: Using AI isn’t a defense for bad lawyering, and even technically accurate AI-assisted work can become a problem if it looks like nobody exercised actual legal judgment. I think we’re going to see a lot more of this. The legal profession is starting to push back on AI use in a much more fundamental way than just “don’t hallucinate cases”!

🚨#BREAKING: The 11-YEAR-OLD BOY who was stopped by police, FINGERPRINTED, and ordered to court for riding his dirt bike to go FISHING 300 FEET FROM HIS OWN HOUSE... ...has just pleaded NOT GUILTY in court The 6th-grader MISSED SCHOOL because the State of Florida is prosecuting him for a misdemeanor. His name is Cade Kirchner, he's 11. He built and sold squirrel tables all summer and saved $900 and bought a little electric dirt bike with his own money. On Labor Day he grabbed his fishing pole and rode toward the pond at Sweetwater Park. Police pulled him over, fingerprinted, ticketed, and then TOWED HIS DIRT BIKE AWAY. The day before court, Cade said: "I'm feeling very scared. I'd rather be in school instead of being at court." His dad called the State Attorney's Office on Monday hoping they'd drop it. Their answer: they're pursuing charges. So Tuesday morning at 9 a.m., Cade missed class and walked into Seminole County Court with his mom, his dad, and a lawyer. He stood there for less than two minutes. The judge told him to come back December 2nd. His dad's words after: "How ridiculous that he had to miss school for that." New bodycam video came out this week. The officer, on camera, told an 11-year-old: "You're getting one ticket today. You could have gotten six criminal violations, but I'm giving you one." Six criminal violations, for a kid with a fishing pole. Did Cade technically break the law? Sure. The bike has no pedals and the state of Florida law calls it a motorcycle and even Cade's own parents have said he shouldn't have been on the road. The argument is that we have VIOLENT CRIMINALS who are being released every single day by the court system all the time who are constantly let off with warnings... But this kid is getting the full weight of the justice system brought against him. Now prosecutors are spending taxpayer money to keep the case going into DECEMBER. Cade's lawyer says he expects it to be resolved soon. It should have been resolved on the side of the road with the words "go home, kid." This is so stupid... we are destroying childhood freedom for kids and no one seems to care. This is not the America I want for my kids.

Big weekend for the color gold 😁
