I agree, Nancy Grace is a Overly-Dramatic, Hyper-Emotional, and
Extremely Subjective "Lawyer," and I used the word "Lawyer"
guardedly, who appears to appeal only to other women of the same
pathological nature. As far as getting a fair trial from Judge
Nancy -- Forget it, you're guilty until proven innocent in her court;
and even if proven innocent your life is still not worth the food for
dung beetles.
Nancy Grace needs to go find a good Library Job and leave objective
reporting to objective reporters; objective hosting to objective
hosts...
