Forced obligations

Updates have fallen behind over the past week due to an unplanned hiatus: Our editor was selected as the thirteenth juror on a case being heard in the Superior Court of Cobb County. The trial lasted for six days, approximately 55 hours, 10 hours each day, 12 witnesses, countless exhibits and six crappy lunches. As if the loss of income wasn't enough, our editor was chosen as the alternate juror and was not allowed to participate in the verdict. Six wasted days.

Needless to say, it seriously cut into the time we had to keep Vile up-to-date. Fear not, we are back and will be entering content feverishly to keep you on the cutting edge of anger-inducing news.

What was the trial about? In short, it was a real estate squabble between the county government and a church.
