Donegan is not the person to whom I was referring as an advocate.
I was referring to the ADVOCATE from whom Donegan got all her information -- the woman's lawyer.
Until the court transcripts of the hearing/trial whatever it eventually becomes are made public no one knows the complete and "actual" facts.

...Media Men was a crowdsourced Google spreadsheet created during October 2017 that collected allegations and rumors of sexual misconduct against approximately 70 men[1] in the media industry, particularly in New York City.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostThat's exactly what I said --- you have ONE SIDE of the story, presented by a very biased attorney whose only interest is making her client look less culpable.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostGuys, seriously..... this sounds like attorneys trying to build a case for a civil lawsuit against the prosecution, not an actual report of the incident.
Where do we get the biggest portion of information about this case?
Prescription fraud cases usually happen when a person uses a false identity or forgery to get controlled substances. Emma Roth, an attorney for National Advocates for Pregnant Women representing Blalock, said Lauderdale County officials are using charges of prescription fraud to get around the exemption in the chemical endangerment law.
A woman's advocacy lawyer!
ATTENTION WOMEN!!!!
Have you had the PERQUACKIES scared out of you because the police came to your house ASKING QUESTIONS?
Did it scare you so bad you didn't buy Christmas presents for your kids because you needed bail money?
Were the police in real police uniforms including carrying holstered GUNS?
Have the NEIGHBORS seen the police around your home?
Then you need to call our tough smart lawyer, Emma Roth,
who will write up your case in such a way
that it doesn't even sound like what happened,
but will make internet trolls start misleading threads about it!!!
Call 1-800-FAK-NEWS NOW!!!
(Emma Roth is a "civil rights attorney and gender justice advocate".
So, yeah, it still seems like this prosecution is overreach, but we're only hearing one very prejudiced side of the story.
Lemme repeat....

That you consider this is to be "one very prejudiced side of the story" exposes your own prejudice; given that you have [without any evidence] automatically assumed that Ms Roth, an attorney for National Advocates for Pregnant Women, has some sort of underhand plan "to drum up sympathy for her client".

This isn't rocket science. The "other side" (the prosecution) can't comment because it's an ongoing case.
Lemme try to dumb this down for you just a bit.
In a legal proceeding, we have, in the USofA, an "adversarial system", where there's...
A) a prosecution team --- they will present their side to PROSECUTE
2) a defense team --- they will present THEIR side to try to DEFEND (are ya seeing a pattern here?)
C) and a judge and/or jury who will try to impartially weigh both sides and come up with a verdict.
All you have heard is ONE SIDE, and it happens to be the ADVOCATE for the woman whose job it is to keep her from going to jail.

For those interested in fact over hysteria and stupidity, here's a copy of the actual motion to dismiss charges in this case.
Note --- despite the loony rantings of those who appear profoundly ignorant of the US legal system, this represents a "one sided" case, as it is the defense's motion to dismiss the other side's (prosecution) case.
Been looking for the papers filed in court for the indictment, but as yet haven't found "the other side".The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
