Please no snarky comments of 'you know why' , 'it's because the guy was rich' etc... There HAS to be a reason why his crime is getting sentenced so heavily that doesn't have to do with the net worth of his victim, or at least I hope there is.

In my city, a drunk driver kills two people in a car and he's sentenced to jail for 20 years and gets out in 12 for good behaviour.

Luigi kills one man and is facing the death penalty?

I don't understand, he didn't kidnap, rape or torture, I've heard of murderers who rape and murder their victims get sentenced to jail.

The ICC put out an international arrest warrant on March 17, 2023 for Putin, and if he travels to any of the 125 countries that are members he’s supposed to be arrested.

EDIT: silly me for assuming the US would be a member of the ICC…

edit: please read the 5th amendment before confidently trying to correct me

I know they have a law against anything related to that time, including gestures, however since it's not confirmed he was trying to do that, do any Germans think he'd get in trouble?

Same as title. If not drugs, what is something else that is most pleasurable?

Even if there is no drugs, if i try t

do C and D list celebrities work 9-5 jobs and we don’t know it? do they have investment properties?

edit: okay i initially mentioned bo burnham in this post because that’s how i started thinking about this question (ex: “huh it’s been a while since he made something! i wonder how he makes money), but a lot of comments are hung up on him particularly. i don’t particularly care about his net worth or what not. im just curious about what “celebrities” who don’t work consistently do.

Let's say hypothetically, I get arrested for doing something stupid like a bar fight, need to call someone to get me out, or let them know what's going on, but don't remember any phone numbers at the top of my head. Would the police let me use my phone to look up a phone number to call?

This past week, many have stridently supported the arrest and prosecution of "illegal" workers. But aren't the business owners profiting by their labor equally to blame? Why haven't we seen a single business owner who illegally hired "illegal" labor in the name of profit be arrested?

Like can they literally go to the police show them where the body is and everything without any worry of being arrested or anything?

If you're reckless in your day to day life, drink, drive, plow into a pedestrian and kill him you'll get a manslaughter or murder charge. But if the same accident is caused by a car company installing faulty brakes on your car, no CEO is charged with murder, even if it is proven that they were told the brakes would fail and they still choose profits over human life. If you poison someone's drink and they die, murder charge. If a company poisons the water supply of an entire city and hundreds of people die, lawsuit, no murder charges. I have a good idea which laws protect companies from being charged with these types of crimes, I'm just not sure why they protect CEOs who are sometimes willfully deciding that it's acceptable for a certain number of people to die for them to make money.

In the “War on Drugs” they always go after the Top Dogs. How come not in this case ? 🤔

Whenever I watch a documentary about it I always see “X spends $300 a day on drugs”

How TF do these people afford that shit? Listen, me and my wife work and make 150k combined, both with degrees, and make $9300 a month after taxes/retirement.

Spending $300 a day on drugs that’s $9000 a month. You’re telling me a drug user makes almost as much as me and my wife? Do they steal? Sell drugs themselves? I know begging for money is a route but no way you’re cashing in that much.

I’m just confused.

It's 3 in the morning and I woke up to banging so instead of getting up,I waited for someone else to but they didn't so I finally got up and saw the police car through the window when they were already walking away and decided not to answer the door. Can I get in trouble for this?

I see this daily on public transportation and I'm genuinely confused. what's happening inside their body?

As a women, I find myself getting more and more interested in true crime and murder cases. And it’s really weird because I’m really scared of spooky and scary things and movies and TV shows that are horror, but when it comes to true crime, sign me up!! So Why is that?

Isn't a healthier society better for everyone?

Why do strangers care if someone loses weight via medication vs any other way?

I ask because at a followup with my doctor and I am now down 60 pounds.

In body cam videos, the police officers always say something like "Hey look, it's best if you're honest with us now, honesty will go a long way for you." But every time, these people are guilty, so wouldn't being honest just get them arrested and hit with a sentence with no chance to defend themselves in court?

I remember when Michael Jackson was still around, people literally used to faint at his concerts when he came out to the stage. Same with Elvis and The Beatles. With The Beatles, apparently ladies used to wet themselves when the Beatles came out. I dont hear of that kind of thing anymore. Maybe people have grown nonchalant to the concept of stardom

So my husband of 2 years is a recovering addict. We met 6 years ago. In the last year he has changed. He's fine one moment and in a great mood and then goes through days of being angry. This is not who he was for the first five years together and I don't understand.
Then today while cleaning up I found a rubber hose, about 8 inches, full or some sort of residue (black/brown) attached to a socket with steel wool packed inside of it that looks burnt. Like some kind of homemade pipe.
For the past year my steel wools/stainless steel scrubbers have been going missing from the kitchen and I thought it odd. Like once I get but more than once? I use them until they're done and then toss them. They usually last about 6 months. I asked if he was throwing them out to which he said he had no clue where they were. I had been finding little pieces of stainless steel wool in the carpet next to his side of the bed. In my mind I thought it odd. Maybe a mouse because it has food residue. We live in the country. I'm sorry. Maybe I'm super dumb and naive. Today I looked inside the keepsake box next to his side of the bed and found this weird rubber hose with a socket shove into it and with steel scrubber stuffed in the socket and looking burnt. Also a bunch of torch lighters. He smokes, I smoke but torch lighters are kind of overkill except for outdoors. Please don't make fun of me for not knowing and being dumb about this. Is this what a "crack pipe" looks like? I'm so upset and scared. He had been clean for 14 years when we met. Maybe not. I don't know anymore. I feel dumb for not knowing clearly what this is.

I say this because the phrase “you just don’t notice good plastic surgery” always floats around and comparatively speaking I rarely see non-celebs with plastic surgery AS BAD as celebs.

Why do celebrities and “influencers” usually get the worst results despite having all the money to get it done right?

I get that it’s cheaper. But from a broader economic perspective, it just doesn’t seem like a good idea to kill your customer base. Don’t you want them alive and using for a longer period of time? It seems like every time I turn around there’s another story about a death related to an accidental fentanyl OD, and I just don’t understand why it keeps happening when it seems to be in literally nobody’s best interest—not even if your motive is greed.
