Addicted to Rage
In the wake of yet another slap at her professional ethics, Nancy Grace boasts that in 10 years as a prosecutor she tried more than 100 cases to a jury and handled thousands of guilty pleas. So?
Hey, Nancy. Plenty of people work that hard.
Perhaps that is why she burned out to become a Court TV caricature.
Grace's conduct as a prosecutor has gleaned the following commentary by reviewing courts. She has "demonstrated disregard of the notions of due process and fairness;" her conduct was "inexcusable," wrote the Georgia Supreme Court in Carr v. State, 267 Ga. 701 (1997).
Her closing argument in another case "exceeded the wide latitude" afforded counsel. She argued the heinousness of drug-related murders and serial rape in a heroin trafficking conviction. Bell v. State, 263 Ga. 776 (1994).
And most recently, she "played fast and loose with her disclosure obligations" as regards excuplatory evidence, a third court found in a habeas case. Stephens v. Hall, (N.D.Ga. Sept. 11, 2003)
Maybe that explains why she gave up lawyering to accept a gig as Court TV commentator. Perhaps she hoped she could out run her past.
But she can't. She has embraced the past. Grace decided to become a lawyer after the murder of her fiance. Put another way, she sublimated her private grief into public rage.
And now she boasts of her record. "It's a lifetime of work," she says of her decade of rage in the court. Grace now struts for crime victims on Court TV.
Will this latest ruling affect her credibility as a television commentator? Of course not. The public doesn't read appellate decisions. The public only knows what the camera exposes. The public loves Grace because she, well, lacks grace; her speciality is rage.
So, what do you call a burned out prosecutor with a chip on her shoulder? Commentator. And what do you call Nancy Grace? A victim without a cause.
Another reason not to televise trial. Can you imagine letting this wounded duck back into the well of a court while a jury is in the room?
Plus, she has crazy eyes.

FUCK YOU, NANCY RULES AND YOU SUCK NORM PATTIS. I HOPE YOU FIANCE GETS MURDERED, AND NANCY PROSECUTES YOU AS THE CULPRIT AND KICKS YOUR ASS AS USUAL.
YOURE JEALOUS AND STUPID AND THATS WHY YOU ONLY HAVE A BLOG, AND SHE HAS THREE PRIME TIME SHOWS.

The dumb bitch is out of the courtroom because she can't take the heat. I'd kick her ass, and yours, too, you stupid little twit.

"Tiffany," that was the funniest comment I've ever read. Please tell me you're one of Norm's buddies messing with him. Otherwise, I'll remain disturbed that people like you exist.

Lisa Stone on May 5. You are one sick young lady. You couldn't touch Nancy Grace with a 20 foot pole. A bar of soap in your mouth daily might make you a more likable person. As Nancy says...you jerk!

I am personally troubled with the attempts of ALL of these commentator, tv journalists, whatever you want to call them, trying to become celebrities. That's all they want. I can't stand to watch her, she is just rude and frankly sounds like she is trying to hard. Greta Van Susteran was just as bad...Wolf Blitzer, Bill O'Rielly and Anderson Cooper...Why don't they just report the news...why all the commentary? Why a need for celebrity journalism? I don't think they can give anything an objective view if they are worried about how they look or sound on camera. My personal opinion.

Why does Nancy Grace make so many people spit venom? My guess is that people don't like to listen to strong willed and opinionated, smart woman.
Nancy Grace doesn't sugar-coat her feelings or opinions and that can make for uncomfortable viewing on occasion.However,I absolutely respect her as a woman, and for her blunt honesty, whether I agree with her or not.
Yes, Nancy lost the man who would have been her husband, to murder. Yes, there is obviously a lot of pain in her heart,and anger towards the murderer. Her experience must have been shattering yet she found the strength and courage to face the nightmares of other victims too by becoming a prosecutor. That takes my breath away. What an inspiration!
Nancy Rocks :o)

Why?
a. She is not very intelligent
b. She, and more importantly, looks funny, almost like a fish.
Posted by: Norm Pattis | June 10, 2005 at 04:44 AM
My problem with Nancy Grace is not that she is a "strong-willed, opinionated woman." My problem is that she spouts off without knowing or, more importantly, caring about facts or rights. The conservative appellate courts of Georgia have agreed that this was a problem for her when she actually practiced law; now her problem has a megaphone attached, by way of people who confuse news with entertainment.
I watch Nancy Grace only because the YMCA in my town sometimes plays CNN in its treadmill room. Hence I have the foundation to say I've seen her make crazy-eyed, foaming accusations against individuals who haven't even been charged yet. That has to affect their rights to a fair trial; and she presumably is well aware that the lawyers who actually are investing their time and effort in a case (unlike herself) are prevented from making such inflammatory comments during the course of jurybound litigation, precisely because of concerns for making trial fair.
Being a "strong-willed, opinionated woman" myself, I'd add that it is reprehensible to exploit the murder of her fiance as a springboard for publicity and fame.

Ms. Grace has no sense of justice, the state is always right, defendants are always guilty as charged......she's scary in more ways than one.....but this is America where there's a great deal of money to be made from attitudes such as hers, u know mean, rude, self-centered type individuals.....she should be of FOX with Bill, Sean........Peace Keep Hope Alive!
Posted by: clgmore | June 15, 2005 at 03:00 PM
Hmmm, out of 100's of cases you find three where the courts admonished her and this proves something? Look up your local district attorney and see how many admonishments he/she has.
Posted by: mert | June 16, 2005 at 10:45 AM
Wow. This ancient post lives on, much to my surprise.
Bottom line? I dislike her because she is a caricature; that is the key to her success in the world of talking-heads, and it may have made her a good prosecutor. But I don't like caricatures accept in comic books and bad fiction.
Posted by: Norm Pattis | June 16, 2005 at 10:59 AM
Nancy Grace is an over opinionated, self rightous, sensationalistic dumb bitch. She is more concerned with making the news then actually reporting it. She needs to be booted off all media forms and a good smack across the face probably wouldn't be such a bad idea either. I don't care how many cases she tried in the past, she obviously doesn't know her ass from a hole in the ground. Her comments on "the runaway bride" are pathetic and hypocritical to say the least. "The Bride" wasn't trying to get all that media attention, hell she didn't want to go in fromt of 600 guests what makes you think she wanted to go before millions of viewers you dumb bitch. We won't even get into her pathetic bs of the Jackson trial. The media made the big deal of it and now they have the nerve to complain that the mess they made is gonna make her some money... what a load of crap. If being a stupid obnoxious cunt was a crime Nancy Grace would be given life in prison if not the death penalty I'm sure.

Recently Grace was talking about the imminent release of Canadian murderess Karla Homolka. She was ranting and raving about the ridiculously short jail sentence Homolka served (12 years - it was too short) . During her diatribe she slipped in a quick little statement – something to the effect “I’m the only one who is concerned about this.” Her fear was that Homolka would come south of the border and start killing Americans. There was a Canadian journalist on the panel. He interrupted the frothing Grace to say there were thirty million Canadians "very" concerned about Homolka’s release. Grace ignored the man and carried on. This may come off as an inconsequential moment but I think it speaks to the larger picture. Nancy Grace beliefs she’s the only person on the planet who cares. What an ego.

I am watching this woman Nancy Grace and am again just sickened by her; it is time for her departure. I watched court tv this afternoon and saw Catherine Crier's program and am so in awed regarding the difference in professionalism. Catherine is a professional, Nancy most certainly is not. She is like a high school girl who is pissed off at the world.
I am sorry for her that her fiance was killed, that was a real tragedy; however, she needs intense help (shrink) so that she can deal with this tragedy and move on and find happiness in her life. Unfortunately, she is so filled with rage and hate, just like a racist, that she is unable to.
Recently she had this Pinto lady on trying to mimic her in the way she conducts her show. It was sickening as well. Ms. Pinto should reconsider her "mentor"; Nancy is NOT a wise choice to emmulate.
Why do I even watch her show ...
Simply put, I am looking for info on one topic or other. Tonight it is the Holloway case. Nancy is just trashing an entire country. I am a 48 year old man, and if this was "me", would she (or anyone) give a damn that "I" was lost and my family was in tears. No, she would not. If this was a black girl, or fat white girl, or someone from a family without "means" (ie: $$$) would ANYONE give a flying f***! No ...
I hope Natalie is found and she is being held by some sick person who needs a severe beating. I feel for her family. However, her family has gotten the attention that 99.99999% of families NEVER will!
The people of Aruba have done much to find Natalie, and have bent over backward to help her family. We (America) does not need to go into another country and push our weight around. Give Arubans a chance to let this situation play itself out, and CNN ... PLEASE do the right thing and replace Nancy Grace with Catherine Crier. Nancy Grace's "time" (like Jerry Springer's) has come and gone. CNN needs to replace her with Catherine.

I almost never agree with Nancy Grace, but she does crack me up . It's a nice comedy show. I don't think CNN intentions were for it to be something serious, or else what were they thinking?

Nancy Grace manages to embarrass both lawyers and television hosts in one fell swoop. This
is an amazing endeavor given the disrepute of both groups. Nancy proves the adage that
volume and bluster are a mere mask for a lack of ability.

Wow, what a bitch. Allow me to rephrase that, as I did not mean to discredit bitches in general: what a stupid ass hillbilly bitch that Nasty Dis-Grace is. Very sexually frustrated, jealous of anyone who is actually happy with their life. Why everyone who is not a white attractive woman is on drugs, molesting all baby girls and on the verge of being heartless murderers? What a crank. What a travesty. Cannot believe that we allow this, but the moronic masses who look for a Crusade leader (sans the basic ability to check facts for themselves, i.e., stupid white trash hillbillies with little to no education...sheep who go 'Baaaaaa' as Caligula once pointed out in history regarding the simple minded masses)need this sick caricature of a person to carry that Christian cross on tv. She should be EXILED once and for all. Then she could use the millions she is raking in from these unjustifiable LIES that she tells and get herself a good shrink. Not one of those dime-store militant lesbian shrinks she loves to surround herself with- but a REAL SHRINK. She needs to go back to the farm, as Elton John mentions in 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.' Goodbye Nasty Ass Grace.

Nancy Grace, 47, commentator for Court TV.
A “Victim of a violent crime”
THE DOCUMENTED STORY OF THAT CRIME
The Murder of Keith Griffin.
What has she told us about what happened that violent day?
In searching through interviews, magazine and newspaper articles here is what she has said.
Then there are the documented facts gleaned from interviews with Jurors, Attorneys, Judge, Witnesses and newspapers in the area.
First the date, she has said at various times, it happened in 1987, 1985, 1982 and 1980. You would think a date that according to Ms. Grace “changed her life forever” would be burned into her soul. A seminal event!
The date was August 6, 1979 .
She said it happened in a remote wilderness.
It was on the entrance road to the Georgia Kraft Plywood Co. and US Hwy. 278, 1 ½ miles from downtown Madison Ga.
She said her boyfriend did not know his assailant.
They were friends, work for the same construction Co. In fact the prosecutor at trail based part of his case on the assailant killing a friend.
She said her boyfriend was 25.
He was 23.
She said the assailant was 25.
He was 19,
Said assailant was on parole
He was not.
Said he had a record.
He did not.
Said it was a murder for profit.
It was not.
The man was out for revenge after being fired from his job at the construction Co.
Said her boyfriend was driving a jeep,
It was a Bronco that belonged to the Construction Co.
Said it was robbery.
It was not.
Said they found Keith’s wallet with $35.00 and her picture in McCoy’s home
No wallet was found in his home. Just the 38 cal. revolver Ser# 33866 . (Griffin’s wallet was found several days after the incident in the Bronco, by Eli Ingram,)
Said it was a mugging.
It was not.
Said it was random.
It was not.
Said he was still alive when he arrived at the hospital.
He was pronounced dead at the scene .
Said she was asked by Joe Briley the District Attorney if he should seek the death penalty. Grace said she told him No and has regretted it ever since. (If that were true you would think Briley would have asked Griffin’s parents. rather than a 21 yr. old kid) .
The State did ask for the Death Penalty. The jury voted against it.
She said she testified at the trial.
Two Jurors, a Bailiff, a Defense attorney a Court Reporter and Judge do not remember any “white girl testifying”. (The transcripts were destroyed in a fire.) .
The Defendant never looked at her.
The accused stared at the floor during the entire trial. In fact he never spoke a word to his lawyer or anybody before, during or after the trial. (One exception)*
She said McCoy’s defense was “didn’t do it, you got the wrong guy
The truth is... there was never a doubt by anyone he did the crime (there is a confession)
The defense was insanity.
Said the Jury was out 3 days .
Jury was out 5 hrs.
She said there were many appeals.
There were none
Says she is 44 years old
.She is 47.
Documented narrative of what really happen August 6, 1979.
Keith Griffin 23, from Athens GA. and Tommy McCoy 19, an illiterate, mentally challenge Blackman, worked together for the Ingham Construction Co. on the Georgia Kraft Plywood Co. site outside Madison Ga.
McCoy was fired and was out for revenge. On Monday the 6th of August Mccoy left his house with a 38 cal. Revolver stashed in a brown paper bag.
Keith Griffin had taken the company Bronco to town to pick up lunch. Returning to Kraft he saw McCoy walking down the Company road at the intersection of US Hwy. 278.
Griffin stopped either to talk or to give a ride to McCoy. It is not clear which.
McCoy fired six shots at point blank range, five of which found their mark... McCoy then dumped the body in the back seat and in his rush, drove the Bronco in a ditch.
Joe Brown, a maintenance worker for the plant drove by in his truck and not knowing what had happed offered to help McCoy. He refused. Brown drove a few yards decided to return. He told McCoy he would take him to the hospital because of all the blood on his shirt.
The assailant then jumped in the passenger side of Brown’s truck, put the gun in the f ace of the Maintenance worker and pulled the trigger twice, ( At trial he said the gun looked like a “stove pipe”) The gun was empty, Brown ran and McCoy took of in his truck..
Minutes later friends of Brown’s showed up and said they saw the truck and knew where it was. It was parked in McCoy’s driveway. He was arrested a few minutes later with the gun in his possession.
Keith Griffin was pronounced dead at the scene.
Tommy got a lawyer, a good one, Billy Prior. According to Prior, McCoy never said a word to him before, during or after the trail. (One exception)*. During the entire 1 ½ day trail the defendant stared at the floor without moving. Prior did a magnificent job explaining the psychiatric reports and mental history of the retarded defendant. McCoy had been judged “mildly retarded” by the Ga. Central State Hospital. (By the way, no one remembers a “white girl” testifying.)
It worked! The jury turned down the death penalty.
When the Jury came back and announced they would not render a death penalty verdict. McCoy turned to his lawyer and uttered his only words. “Does that mean I’m gonna live”?*
Tommy McCoy, GDC ID: 0000400964 was convicted of murder, aggravated assault (Brown) and found not guilty of robbery. He was sentence to life, with possibility of parole.
He is in his 26th year at the Hancock State Prison at Sparta Ga,

Right on, Norm, right on! I am going on 15 years of trying to live a real life despite having a Rage Addict harassing me every way he can! Once the courts told him to back off, ... he simply began using the legal system as his weapon of choice! Regretably, the courts in my area are too stupid to see through his machinations. So what if he threatened to kill me... it's his word against mine. I hope you can help open some eyes to just how deadly dangerous these Rage Addicts really are ... before they hurt even more innocent lives and people.

Whether your comments about Nancy Grace are positive or negative, keep in mind that "there is no such thing as bad publicity." Remember, too, how women are treated differently in our society than are men: Men are angry; women are rageful. This is merely an attempt to silence women - all one has to do is compare the numbers of incarcerated men to the numbers of incarcerated women to know which sex really is the rageful one. All one has to do is consider and count the number of nasty names that are given to women compared the the few given to men. Then ask: Who gave these negative names to women? Men did, and they did so in order to make women appear invalid when they could not silence women. They also did so in order to split women apart, thereby more easily clutching on to power that does not belong to them. I maintain allegience to all women, for even those who have bought into men's power grab and denigrate other women, are still people deserving of the support of women they will someday need. Nancy Grace understands this, as many, many other women do. I say, "Speak out, Nancy." Suffering abusive husbands and boyfriends in silence is what kills. I believe that Laci knew Scott was a poor husband. I believe that like many other wives, she kept silent about this in the hope that she could, in time, make her marriage a happy one. I believe she kept silent to not only protect her husband and her marriage, but she also kept silent in order to protect the family and friends she loved. Because of this silence, Laci will forever remain silent now, just as Scott wanted her to be. Silent and gone. It is up to other women now to speak up for all women caught in Laci's situation. Any good man will agree with this, and I hope those good men will join in with their voices. Surely it is more productive for men to vent their anger and rage against men like Scott Peterson than it is for them to vent their anger and rage against women like Nancy Grace, whose primary intent is to enlighten this society about men who act upon their rage in deadly ways. At least, think about it. At least, think.

Nancy and I dated briefly a few years back, so I have have a bit of insight into her as an individual. She's not the easiest person in the world to get along with on a personal level and although she's often perceived as somewhat cold, I can assure you that she is a tiger in the sack! If you get a couple of glasses of white wine into her, a little mood music and are prepared to allow her to call you "daddy", she's a fun date. Slap her bottom a couple of times in the midst of 'battle' and you'll be treated to some window rattling yells!

Nancy Grace is definitly disturbed. Her hysterical blurbs reveal her lack of self-control. She will give herself a heart attack within 15 years. Who cares if the dude ate stake on a plane at taxpayers expense. With so much rage, she should join the Marines.

Well tonight Nancy showed her ultra compasionate side interviewing the parents of a 10 year old who died in a "tragic accident" in the shows own words, and who did not "suffer" in the parents and doctors own words in a bus crash in Jamacia while being transported from the airport to a resort. The grieving parents are sueing the resort for 10 or is it 100 million dollars to increase "awareness" and Nancy was so compasionate. Maybe she should be more aware that accidents are all tragic that end in death, and money grubbing scumbags with no integrtiy are all the same. To bad she wasnt as nice to Malinda Duccett. Or maybe she should have harped on the grieving parents, on the air, when they said they asked the driver to slow down. Why didnt they demand him to, why didnt the father get up and demand that he stpo the bus, etc, etc, just go sue , that will really enlighten us right Nancy? I guess it just depends which side your on.
Posted by: Valorie Stephens | November 22, 2006 at 11:19 PM
Nancy Grace should not be on TV. She should be disbarred for her overt hatred of the accused. It is one thing to prosecute a case, but quite another thing to go around bullying people who are innocent.
Her ambivalence toward the suicides of Melinda Duckett and Bill Conradt, the ambivalence of her guests, and her lack of concern for the families of the dead serves to prove that she is not a very good representative of victims.
Her usage of the concept of victimhood is purely political. They dont care about "all" victims, they only care about the victims which are politically convenient to their rightwing fanatical agenda.
If they can treat people like this on TV, people who are innoccent, if they can bully innocent people into suicide, just imagine what they do to them in Georgia State Prison. This is her former boss - the Georgia Judiciary. Every time I see her show it feels like I'm watching Joseph Goebbles or Heinrich Himmler.
I never thought that CNN would turn suicide into an interactive game show for the wrongly accused, but hey - there must be some marketing geniuses over there who really know their stuff.
Nancy Grace. If she says that you're guilty, then you really are.
It's gossip gone wild. Bearing false witness via satellite broadcast.

Nancy Dis-Grace is not only a disgrace to

the legal process, and the cannon of ethics
so effortlessly skirted by her flippant
disregard for the actual TRUTH!
She continues to leave victims in her wake

Joe Scarborough’s show of MSNBC broadcasted another show that indicates that there is now a “suspect” (person-of-interest) in the Trenton Duckett case, and that the investigation is still on-going as of this date. The clip also confirms that “Nancy Grace is scared to death” about the Duckett lawsuit (and more lawsuits) coming against her and CNN for Nancy’s unprofessional and illegal conduct documented thus far in the Duckett case. If criminal charges come against Nancy, wonder if CNN will cover what Nancy gets served for dinner after she goes to prison? Hope the tickets are available soon for the upcoming trials against Nancy for her direct connection in the deaths of more people who were never criminally convicted including Melinda Duckett. Maybe Nancy will receive “chicken-on-bone” meal with a small cup of ice-cream.” If that is the case, maybe the public should conjure up a public-out-cry against Nancy for getting chicken and ice-cream in prison where she will likely also have access to a television too, but not to cable-television to watch Nancy’s replacement on her show. Ohhh, too bad Nancy. People have told you Nancy, you cannot continue to victimize the victims. Sounds like Nancy’s civil-illegal actions are finally catching up to Nancy, as it does with most criminals. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lF-w00BfRS0

Back in the middle ages criminal justice was swiftly carried out by the relatives of the victim themselves.
One of the the objectives of due process is to establish whether compassion for the criminal is warranted, but Mrs. Grace's rage gets in the way of this fact.
I sympathize with the victims, but the question is: Are we to go back to the middle ages now? (...and may be even invade Aruba while we are at it?)

The post here with "THE DOCUMENTED STORY OF THAT CRIME" is quite enlightening.
I don't like Nancy. She's dishonest and immoral. I say this admittedly having set the bar high.
She is unfit to be a prosecutor, so it's good that she is a mere hack commentator. She's a compulsive liar, at least as far as herself and her own experience is concerned, and simply can not be trusted for anything beyond crass sensationalism.

Another lie from Nancy Grace.
Nancy Grace claims to be the father of Anna Nichol’s baby.
Nancy Grace is now claiming to be the father of Anna Nicole's baby. When will Nancy Grace stop lying? It is highly suspected that Nancy is simply just stating yet another lie, and her recent claim is probably not even close to being true, as much of what she states already proves incorrect. Perhaps, it may be time again for another “stay” in her Psych Ward. One of sound-mind might conclude that Nancy might be busy enough trying to generate up some type of a defense to some of her current lawsuits against Nancy to keep her busy enough to help eliminate Nancy from making such a fool of herself again. But, it does not appear Nancy is capable from not acting like a fool.

On Thursday April 6th, Nancy Grace again complained why people are so “fascinated” with the topic of OJ Simpson. Part of the reason is directly due to people like Nancy Grace. Nancy is so consumed with all of her previous wrong “predictions” in the OJ murder case that she has been obsessed with her disparaging now-current position as a credible “journalist.” Nancy was wrong not only on that case, but wrong on most vases Nancy has ever attempted to cover over the years. Nancy has no credibility to anyone educated to the facts of the cases, and to those who have any professional experience in the fields of either Law or Psychology. Nancy truly is mere amusement to any viewer that is well educated. The problem remains, however, that uneducated and under-educated people tend to believe that Nancy Grace has any truth or substance to her rantings. There in-lies the continued problem with Nancy Grace, and why Nancy should stop victimizing victims.

Nancy Grace was proven wrong again on all of her assertions on the Winkler case on Thursday April 19th. Doesn’t CNN management ever watch Nancy’s shows anymore?
Nancy Grace has documented herself to be incorrect, in some fashion, on just about every single case Nancy has attempted to cover over the recent months. While Nancy continues to rack up more potential lawsuit cases against herself and CNN for her continued defamation, slander, libel, and even the wrongful death Nancy is currently linked to by Nancy’s own possible illegal actions, it is well documented that Nancy Grace is not un-willing to commit even more such crimes against even more and more victims.
Some Courts have already reprimanded Nancy Grace for some of her documented misconduct. But, Nancy continues to rack up more and more violations of Civil Law, and possibly even Criminal Law too, and it is hard to keep up with the continued violations-count, and her seemingly constant violations Nancy has been committing against victim after victim after victim.
The Lawsuits that are soon to be coming from VanderSloot, Howard Stern of the Anna Nichol Smith case, and others against Nancy infractions (according to the attorneys) and the upcoming Lawsuits from all the Duke defendants, as well as possibly from Winkler herself according to her attorney Ferese, Nancy’s continued law violations appear to be occurring on nearly every single day Nancy is on television.
My goodness, Don Imus just lost his job for stating something that could, in-fact, may have been a factual and accurate statement by his derogatory statements towards the women’s basketball team. How CNN can allow Nancy to document even more violations against even more and more victims is just senseless and a total shame for CNN to just stand by and allow this irreprehensible behavior to continue against more and more victims from Nancy Grace. It is truly just ridiculous. Perhaps it is time to change from CNN to broadcasting Nancy Grace on something like comedy central where her conduct more appropriates is representative.
Has CNN already forgotten that Nancy Grace has current lawsuits filed against her for Nancy’s role in the death of a non-convicted victim who Nancy Grace had called on the telephone? Wake up CNN, Imus had to apparently be removed from the airways, and he wasn’t even directly involved in connection of someone’s death. Nor was Imus continuing to victimize more victims as Nancy has documented that she is continuing.
Maybe you, CNN, can provide the public with the “magic number” CNN feels is the appropriate-limit that Nancy has to achieve with her slanderous, libelous, her connections to a possible wrongful death actions Nancy has documented against another victim(s), and her defamational statements against victims before CNN will take similar actions as MSNBC had to do towards Don Imus.
Everyone will be anxious to hear what the “magic number” CNN will tolerate as the group of victims of Nancy Grace grows and grows from her illegal, immoral, and illicit conduct towards so many victims.
And, how can CNN allow a person like Nancy Grace to be around any true victim at Virginia Tech while Nancy has current lawsuits filed against her for Nancy’s alleged involvement in an early death of a emotionally distraught young mother. The management of CNN needs some serious investigation-measures to be implemented immediately, for the safety of current and potential future victims of the unprofessional conduct of Nancy Grace.
How CNN can allow Nancy Grace to have any access to victims at Virginia Tech is a matter that should, perhaps, be investigated by the authorities and by attorneys for the potential victims of her unprofessional conduct. There is a reason Nancy Grace has lawsuits pending against her, with more lawsuits expected in the near future. For CNN to allow Nancy Grace to have contact with any victim is a crime in and of itself, and needs further consideration by the authorities and by attorneys for the victims sake and safety. Allowing Nancy Grace to have access to any victim is like placing a Predator
near a schoolyard while the trial is ongoing for the alleged Predator. It should just not happen.

Nancy Grace was proven wrong again on Monday April 23rd from all of Nancy’s assertions that KENNETH GLENN HINSON was guilty of crimes including kidnappings, sex crimes, and assault with intent to kill two teen girls in an underground bunker located in Darlington, South Carolina last year. Remember Nancy’s unfounded rants?
After Nancy Grace pummeled, ridiculed, slandered, and defamed Hinson on multiple shows aired by Nancy Grace/CNN, the court jurors acquitted Hinson today of above charges that Nancy Grace implied repeatedly Hinson was guilty of. Hinson was facing the possibility of a life sentence without parole, and Nancy had conveyed her apparent desire that a death sentence against Hinson may be more appropriate for Hinson.
But, sorry Nancy Grace, one has to found guilty of those crimes before those measures can indeed be taken. Nancy, is wrong again. It appears that the only crime and miscarriage of justice committed in this matter was the coverage of the case by Nancy Grace. It is suspected that Nancy Grace will need more direct-counseling, more “damage-control measures”, and possible more medications for the stresses Nancy is experiencing being proven wrong over and over and nearly every single day Nancy Grace broadcasts a show through CNN.
Get your checkbook ready Nancy, you are certainly going to be writing some big checks soon to help cover some of these upcoming lawsuits against you. Hinson’s defense attorney, Rick Hoefer, will likely soon sue Nancy Grace and CNN of even more civil crimes that Nancy Grace has documented against herself.
The upcoming lawsuits against Nancy Grace, alleging Nancy committing crimes against a suicide victim and estate, against all the Duke Lacrosse defendants, and against victims like Joran VanderSloot of the Natalee Holloway case are just a few upcoming lawsuits that will be filed soon against Nancy Grace and CNN according to many defense attorneys and blogs.
It is clear that CNN Management does not even bother to watch any of Nancy’s shows. If they did, they would never allow Nancy Grace to ever be around any victim of any crime. Nor would they allow her to commit more crimes against more victims as Nancy continues to document against herself. How CNN can allow this unprofessional misconduct by Nancy Grace to continue to occur is beyond all sensible and rational reasoning. To make some money-profits over the best interests of victims is not a choice most well-educated and caring people would choose.

Nancy Grace forgot to mention on her Thursday May 10th show that she was kicked off COURT-TV for the rest of the season and will not return anymore. Oops, guess Nancy forgot to mention the facts of things again.
Instead, Nancy made assertions that Paris Hilton may need a sentence like a death sentence for committing a couple of minor driving offenses. Wait a minute, Nancy committed crimes far more severe than that of Paris before the city of Atlanta threw Nancy out on her butt and took away her ability to ever practice Law anymore anywhere in the 50 states of the United States. Almost sounds hypocritical, doesn’t it?
Ohh wells, at least Nancy got booted off the air, at least on that show. It’s a start, and perhaps after all the lawsuits that numerous defense attorneys are claiming will be slammed against Nancy Grace, maybe then Nancy will be totally off the air to the welcomed relief of all the victims both still alive and those that Nancy has had a part in their demise.
Nancy Grace has defamed, slandered, libeled, twisted facts, harassed, and so on and so on towards non-convicted victims. Nancy actually may be eligible for some incarceration time by the end of all of this, according to some attorneys. But, at least the “process” has finally materialized.
Her downfall truly began earlier this year after Court-TV removed Nancy from several days of coverage and limited her involvement in and with Court-TV. Plus, CNN has contractually, since last year, mandated that Nancy Grace can never be on any CNN broadcast without at least one of her Psychologists, Psychiatrists, or other doctors present on the set. Good for them.
At least they are beginning to recognize the dangers of Nancy’s victimizations that have already cost more than one victim their life. Finally CNN, go get ‘er. No more victims deserve to be victimized by Nancy Grace, and no more people need to lose their life as a direct result of any involvement with Nancy Grace.

It is now rumored on Tuesday July 3rd that Nancy Grace may actually have been fired, or perhaps suspended or sanctioned by CNN or something as Jane Valez-Mitchell is continuing to host the Nancy Grace show because Nancy has not hosted the show since sometime last month and only Jane has hosted the show all of July. If that is true Nancy was again suspended or finally and rightfully fired by CNN, Nancy should have known her lies would eventually catch up with her, and CNN was looking to dump her butt before the state and federal courts made more rulings against Nancy’s documented unprofessional conduct and allegedly civilly illegal actions. Perhaps Nancy was remanded back into her in-patient therapy hospital in Houston again instead. The “pregnancy” stunt may also be nothing more than a planned damage-control measure to help minimize the expected losses anticipated against Predator Nancy Grace. Either way, Nancy has continued to further document that she remains a complete and total idiot. It is clear why the city of Atlanta canned her butt years ago, and why Nancy can no longer ever practice Law anymore anywhere within any of the 50 states of the United States, and why Court-TV recently reduced her air-time hours before they finally threw her out on her butt too just last month. And do not forget, Nancy still has lawsuits pending in state and federal courts for her alleged involvement resulting in the death of yet another victim by her unprofessional conduct. There is a reason why Nancy was admonished by the court system years ago, she is truly a Predator of victims. A prison cell might be the best option for such a documented predator who continues to victimize victims. I suggest a 10 X 12 sized cell, so she has room for Wendy Murphy and Gloria Allred (born Gloria Rachel Bloom on July 3, 1941), more predators of victims.

There are many Yahoo group-sites that have some of the verifiable links that many un-informed supporters of Predator Nancy Grace might find useful in helping them to become educated to the real truth that Nancy Grace is a true Predator of victims. One Yahoo site called “THE NANCY GRACE FLAME” has over 90 LINKS under the “Links” option (not sure if you have to first be a member) which indicate some of the problems of Predator Nancy Grace, as well as some of the crimes Predator Grace has committed against non-convicted victims. Check it out.

Nancy Grace was not available for her Friday show, CNN played a repeat of an earlier show to try to mask the current attempts by CNN to deal with their current “psychological-problems” of Predator Grace. It is expected that Nancy is currently at the same treatment facility as LOHAN will be at soon. On Nancy’s Wednesday show, Nancy Grace stated she (Nancy) stated the she wanted to go to the alcohol-rehab facility that LOHAN went to, it must have caught the attention of Nancy’s CNN-mandated therapy staff, and that may be the reason Nancy was yanked from doing her Friday show. Do not worry there to those still un-informed to the real Nancy Grace, it has happened many times before. If you learn why Court-TV reduced her “air-time” before they finally fired her butt, many find striking similarities to when the city of Atlanta threw Nancy out on her butt, and why they removed her ability to ever practice Law anymore anywhere within any of the 50 states of the United States. Some days after Nancy demonstrates some high-levels of frustration with being confronted by facts that Nancy did not fully understand, and sometimes when Nancy just had an emotional-meltdown while trying to do the show, CNN takes some contractual-arrangements to put Nancy back into her needed therapy programs. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it does not appear to help her at all. Usually, Nancy only stays “in-patient” for two to five days. Depending upon how Nancy is able to personally handle the stresses from her third-of-three Damage-Control teams right now, that may prove to be the best indicator on how much time Nancy will actually have to do “in-patient” again right now. Everyone wishes the best. Not only is it a another CNN-mandated break for Nancy, but it is also a break to the victims who are continually tormented by her un-founded wrong assertions and her unfounded accusations against more victims. No more people should lose their life anymore as a direct correlation to Predator Nancy Grace.

Nancy Grace is in absolute panic-mode Thursday August 9th, and has her defense attorneys trying to get one of the many lawsuits filed or yet to be filed against Grace thrown out of court. No official response by the court, but it is expected to respond sometime next week on Grace's teary-eyed cry for leniency. Perhaps Nancy should have thought about these problems before she may have incited a suicide against a non-convicted, non-stable, psychologically-distraught young mother of a missing young child.

Utah mine has medics dispatched to retrieve more victims Thursday late evening. A simple solution to this dilemma. Have CNN mandate Nancy Grace out of her in-patient psych-hospital right now, and place Nancy down in the Utah mine with a lengthy written-script to read. Direct her mouth towards the areas where they need removal of coal and timbers, and by having Nancy speak, it will generate enough hot air to help cause the coal to incinerate and disappear, and will then allow passage by some rescue-miners to help finally locate some of the missing miners. Get a court-order if necessary to get Nancy back out of her psych-hospital in an effort to have Nancy released from her Houston psych-hospital and get her mouth finally working for victims for a change. While it would truly be the first time Nancy Grace has ever affected a positive change for any victim, but at least it is a start.

Nancy Grace is in desperate need of a Proctologist after she was reamed repeatedly, over and over, during the taping of her Friday Aug 24th show. Ouch! My goodness, how many times was Nancy proven wrong tonight, I lost track after 24 errors on her part. Nancy should have learned the facts of the LISA NOWACK case first, before Nancy stuck her foot back in her own mouth, and other places. What a total goof she was tonight, what a shame, and what a true disgrace. See your Proctologist Nancy, and maybe that might help to correct some damage you did to yourself tonight. It is clear that you cannot continue to show up at work intoxicated, it is really not working well for you. Have fun at your Proc visit.
