Suspect in Ottawa killings charged with four counts of first-degree murder; could face death penalty
Verity,
Flack was already convicted and sentenced by that time, so they couldn't have gone back and prosecuted him again.

The making of 'K2': Court records detail origin and boom of synthetic marijuana
The student who died, Elijah Taylor, had taken bath salts and K3, or some similar product that came after they banned the first set of K2 chemicals.
We assumed it was the bath salts mostly, but police in Salina said they think he had most recently smoked synthetic marijuana and not the bat salts.

New law abolishes statute of limitations on rape
ebyrdstarr,
Always appreciate your thoughts on these legal issues.
I spent some time thinking about when this new law would be applicable.
I get the points you make, but I guess the one other scenario when this would make a difference could be if someone is raped by someone who is identified by DNA, but at the time chooses not to go forward. Then, after five years, does. I suppose in that scenario, which I admit is probably rare, then the DNA law wouldn't have covered the case?
