Fine. WHEN we are given some clear info. We still haven't been told what the crime is.

Sean's posts are very vague (if not evasive). Why is he asking us to help someone if he doesn't even know (or is not telling us) what this guy is supposed to have done?

The meaning of "crime of passion" is pretty clear worldwide (the French obviously use the term). I don't believe that putting it in brackets next to "civil offense" is ignorance. He started this thread. But it's not telling the whole story, which makes it feel like it's being slanted to get the sympathy vote. I'll give him a break - or not - when I have some FACTS.
