Nancy Grace on her high horse
Have you ever noticed Nancy talking about these 'young dope dealers' and comparing them to the lowest form of life? The Croslin girl is like 17. They were selling oxycontin and valium non-prescription drugs, which very wealthy people like Rush Limbaugh purchase illegally. So why are they filmed behind cell bars and insulted as low-life scum and the Limbaughs get lawyered up and never serve a day or lose a thread of popularity in the entertainment business.

In no way do I condone young people selling or using illegal drugs. Certainly, someone is responsible for the missing child and I hope the guilty are found and brought to justice. I just can't get over how celebrities like Grace find it so convenient to look down on the weakest as if their income level makes them dirt and there are plenty of upper income drug dealers and users much guiltier than these kids are. It is the hypocrisy that is so revolting and noticeable.

1. Add Judge Judy to that list, she and Nancy Grace are the scum.
If those two ever find themselves hanging over a cliff and I am their only lifeline, their lives would have ended as I would not lift a finger for these self-aggrandizing bimbos.

2. I only see Nancy Grace at the gym where HLN is one of three channels shown.

Every show is exactly the same. Breaking news about that poor girl whose mother has been arrested and always some "breaking" news. The breaking news is always the same as it was 3 months ago the last time I bothered to look at what she is ranting about.

3. There's a reason why she's not on TV abroad
or at least- not anywhere I've been recently.

Her foul sticht and lack of ethics wouldn't play well in most western nations.

4. Holy crap, is she still on?
I haven't heard squat about her in a couple of years and I just assumed she had used up her 15 minutes of fame and joined joe the fake plumber at the home for right wing has beens. Or that she'd be in the Olympics winning the gold for "jumping to conclusions".

It's depressing to learn that the flaring nostrils of justice are still polluting the airwaves.

5. I forgot who it was but someone said she was the
"Bill O'Reilly of legal analysis."

So true. However Jami Floyd is my favorite out of those kind of shows. Actually I like them all on TruTV. I'll never watch Grace though.

7. Uh, not so much.
"They were selling oxycontin and valium non-prescription drugs,"

Oxycontin and Valium are, indeed, prescription-only drugs.

12. I meant that they were not obtained
with a doctor's prescription. Like Rush's were not obtained with a prescription. Yes, they are prescribed drugs prescribed by a doc but these were non-prescribed sort of bootleg drugs. I believe Rush had his housekeeper obtain his stock from someone who bootlegged his in quantity.

By non-prescription, I meant obtained without a prescription. I know they are prescription drugs legally obtained by prescription.
