If you don't read Popehat, this might be the moment you realize it's a good idea to start. Very rarely do you see legal discussion detailed enough to be meaningful, while informal enough to hold your attention.
Other discussions of note is the bizarre sentencing of Petraeus: https://www.popehat.com/2015/03/03/a-few-comments-on-the-david-petraeus-plea-deal-what-money-and-connections-buy-you/ https://www.popehat.com/2015/03/03/a-few-comments-on-the-dav... and the way Darren Wilson's potential prosecution was evaluated: https://www.popehat.com/2015/03/04/darren-wilson-and-the-benefit-of-doubt/ https://www.popehat.com/2015/03/04/darren-wilson-and-the-ben...

- Zaephyr 12y agoAlso of note for those new to Pope Hat, Ken White is a former Federal Prosecutor. His perspective from both sides of federal law makes for some interesting posts.
- Symmetry 12y agoAnother thing to note is that Popehat is a group blog. Ken does most of the posting and is the reason most people read but there are other posters too.
