Pete, There appears to be a head of steam building in the US, UK and elsewhere about abolishing the 800 year old law of Double Jeopardy.
One cannot wonder whether this is being coordinated internationally, but it appears to be a move designed to weaken the Jury system of trial, which is most certainly not a good move.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
