Division of testimony
89 submissionsAccording to this law, you are guilty of a misdemeanor if you fail to produce your license if you accidentally left it at home. You are guilty of a felony if you drive slowly with flashers on to a well-lighted place before stopping, as recommended by personal safety experts.
I am support to this bill because for the sake of NH voters.
As a retired criminal defense lawyer, I have heard too much dubious and even clearly false testimony regarding alleged confessions. HB 1236 would not only serve to prevent such testimony from leading to false convictions but would keep people like me from challenging confessions obtained through proper police procedure.
We train and hire educators please allow them to do their jobs This is ridiculous overkill oversight that is unnecessary - a blanket bill that furthers nothing in a child’s education Cumbersome and ludicrous remote meetings are necessary sometimes and a complete restriction on autonomy of our trusted educators and reps
It is obscene to think this hasn’t been common practice all along. Accountability and transparency are the fundamentals for trust in our government. Vote yes to indisputable accountability.
