Whatever he is doing, I hope that he's doing well.

I believe what he is doing is time.

Until he is actually convicted of selling drugs, it may seem cold but it is accurate. From what has been reported, he is doing time as a result of trying to skip bail or trying to leave the country. Nice Shivering purple cow though.

This is just an example of one of the many ways drugs hurt people. I know Scott and I feel bad for his situation but not for him.

aww

 

Poor cow... I need to give him a couple of blankets and hot coco...

Even if he ends up with probation again I wouldn't expect him to be escorting again. If he get probation escorting could violate that sending him of to prison. I think allot of his clients would be scared to hire him fear the Le would be watching. If found guilty and his past with breaking probation I think he's looking at some prison time..

Unless he has been very good with his money or has someone to support him, I would not be surprised that he would have to escort again in order to deal with what I would imagine would be gigantic legal bills. He may have little other choice as that is what he knows best.

a)My guess is that Lankypeters started this thread about Scott just to make mischief.

b)I wonder about guys who think they know just what is going on in the case when they really don't.

Why not wait until the paint dries before making a judgment?

Joseph, do you have any personal knowledge of the facts of the case, or Scott's legal history? Are you personally aware of the evidence against him or his prior record? Are you extending your good wishes that he will come through this a wiser and happier individual? Because that really seems to be the only thing we can do here and still hold our heads high.

What I stated was a fact. He is doing time. He is accused of a crime and is in jail. I think the use of quote you cited is usually offensive, and in a way ironic. Offensive in that, most times, and I think this is one of those times, the quote's condemnation is larger than the act. However I don't think of you MS as a person who generally intends offense.

 

I have found that when used, preceding clauses clarifying or explaining intent, usually point out that what follows will be deemed, legitimately, to have that quality. I don't mean to be rude, but.... If you don't mean to be rude, don't be. If you don't mean offense, don't offend. If you don't mean to stick your nose in, then keep it in place. Don't state it, do it.

The terms of probation he agreed to in July included "use only your true name, stated to be _____" (not Scott Adler).

 

He's a smart enough guy to have known it was in his interest to abide by the rules he agreed to.

Let me translate: Even if he ends up with probation again, I wouldn't expect him to be escorting again. If he gets probation, escorting could violate that, sending him off to prison. I think a lot of his clients would be scared to hire him, for fear the law would be watching. If found guilty, with his past I think he is looking at some prison time.

 

Joseph, do you have any personal knowledge of the facts of the case, or Scott's legal history? Are you personally aware of the evidence against him or his prior record? Are you extending your good wishes that he will come through this a wiser and happier individual?

 

 

I said if.

Okay, well I remember not too long ago when you found yourself in a jam, planning bankruptcy as I remember. You came here for support from the rest of us. Would you have appreciated us speculating on the facts of your problem without knowing them, or hazarding guess on what your future might be? Or did you just hope that we would be honorable, providing support and good wishes to a fellow poster, no matter what his problems are?

I haven't seen the terms of his probation. Have you? Where and how?

[Guy Fawkes]

He is not "Doing Time", he is being held without bail.

 

This is not like some places in the world where the defense has to prove their innocence. Instead we have the system where the prosecution has to prove the guilt. The difference is a very important right that we have here in the United States..

[Epigonos]

Excellent point Daddy. Thank you.

Please. I wanted an update. I haven't caused "mischief" since second grade.

jpeg images of a summary of the July 30 proceedings at which he agreed to probation were posted on one of the (now defunct) blogs. I am assuming they were genuine; they didn't look like forgeries to me.

Standards

 

Well, N.N. at least you are basing your comment on something you actually saw with your own eyes.

 

Daddy makes the point that shouldn't need to be made: A person is innocent until proven guilty. Here it is one of our own posters, yet some rush to judgment as if they know something the rest of us don't.

 

Another maxim I like is don't kick a man when he is down. If Scott is guilty, then the system will punish him appropriately. We don't need to add to his problems.

 

Contrary to what some are saying, none of what I say is to defend Scott. He has lawyers for that. I just think we need to have standards of our own to guide us in situations like this.

Those that don't think they have to prove their innocence are called inmates. It's been my experience, or more correctly, that of a friend of mine, that one's innocence sometimes has very little to do with whether or not one is found guilty or not. The chances of getting a not guilty verdict or dismissal of the charges are determined much more by the ability of the defense attorney (and his court contacts) than one's innocence. In the end it's all about the $$$.
