I'm Spending Too Much Time on This.

I just can't stop:

"We did everything right," Mike Belmessieri said. "We went in and we saw, last
June, an innocent man, and sat there, many of us -- I know I did -- saying,
'What's this poor kid doing here?' Well, we found out what he was doing there,
didn't we?"

Nice called Peterson "a jerk." "I have one comment for Scott: You
look somebody in the face when they're talking to you," she said.

Belmessieri said Peterson entered court Wednesday with "a smile on his face, laughing. It was just another day in paradise for Scott, another day that he had to go
through the motions. He's on his way home, Scott figures. Well, guess what,
Scotty: It's illegal to kill your wife and child in California."

That's right, folks. If she's got one thing to say to Scott, it's that he should stop being so damned rude. I'M A FAKE CELEBRITY, DAMMIT, SO SHOW ME THE RESPECT I DESERVE. LOOK ME IN THE GODDAMNED EYE. And, John Belmessierieieirieieieieiei, "It was just another day in paradise for Scott"? In the name of all that is good and decent in this world, you've sentenced a man to death, and now you're going to start quoting Phil Collins? Additionally, his use of the condescending "Scotty" (which sounds a lot like a wrestling maneuver) makes it a lock that his involvement in the impending book is going to be a real treat. I guarantee that he insists that the editors have him performing kung fu moves, drinking scotch, and bedding women (Richelle, I'm looking in your direction) throughout the course of the trial. He will be reborn as the ultimate pudgy action hero.
