    Default DatelineNBC Stripper=Murderer

    Ok, so I am not a judge or jury and I obviously do not know all the details in this case. But tonight's episode of Dateline was...interesting...to say the least.
    It told the story of a stripper who may or may not have killed a man she dated. She was convicted and sentenced to 99 years in prison.

    Like I said, I'm not defending or trying to assume what really happened. They show didn't capitalize on the stripper issue, it was actually a pretty fair piece of journalism. THIS is what is pretty scary..... one of the jurors who helped convict her said something along the lines of...
    .....She worked as a stripper. It was her job to use her body to manipulate men for money. She made a lot of money, so she must have been good at manipulating men. If you make your living like that, who's to say you wouldn't use those skills to manipulate someone into murdering for you.

    Whoa.

    The website usually has all transcripts, but I'm not sure what the title was or if it was a re-run, etc.

    I wonder if that Juror would say that about a Lawyer, who makes his/her living manipulating Jurors for money.


    (And when they make a lot of money, pretty much means they are really good at manipulating Jurors!)

    Yeah, that's the story.

    The Dateline episode had a lot more details, and I actually found myself believing she didn't have anything to do with killing the guy.

    Yep. I didn't get the exact quote word-for-word, I was too busy choking on my dinner when I heard it

    The funny thing is, if she is guilty of anything, it would only be conspiracy to commit murder, it was proved she was in Lake Tahoe when the murder happened in Alaska.
    Every single bit of evidence was circumstancial. No prints, no DNA, no witnesses, nothing.

    Great to know that 10 years from now, my job as a stripper might be used as evidence against me in court.

    Oh I have to disagree BGK, I think Dateline totally capitalized on the stripper issue. I don't think I've heard any show use the word "stripper" more times in a single episode, ever. If she had not been a stripper, their story wouldn't have been nearly as titillating. Based on the info shown in the episode, stripper or not, I thought they were both guilty as hell (the stripper and the other guy she lived with).
