  1. Do you know why girls used to get married at 15?

    Because they were forced to

    They were “property”

    They had no rights

    They couldn’t vote, own a home or have a credit card

    They were kids then & they’re kids now

    Phang: It is a fundamental premise of the law that there is no requirement that a criminal defendant be forced to testify to explain away the government’s evidence. Hallagan went to law school and knows better, but she’s so stupid that she made that misstatement of the law to the grand jury.
