    News of this verdict makes me sick for Joyce's family and all of those people let down by this man. Where has virtue gone?

    I find it amusing there is a togetherchristian.com google ad right next to the Michael Joyce guilty announcement.

    For people familiar with personal injury litigation a person alleging damages found performing activities inconsistent with their puported inabilities is not uncommon. Following the trial from newspaper accounts suggests the jury may have held the Judge to a higher standard by virtue of his position and perhaps viewed him as having used his position to gain an advantage.

    It is only right that JOYCE be held to a highter standand than the ordinary person . He is typical of our political people such as TED in ALASKA who only look after their own intrests long range. How can our youth look at this and not be influenced' I only hope they take away his pension as well. ANDY
