    In the 1993 Missouri court case Ropers v. Simmons, Christopher Simmons (17 y/o), accompanied by his two friends Charles Benjamin and John Tessmer, devised a plan to kill Shirley Cook. The full plan was to commit burglary and homicide by breaking and entering the residence, tying up the woman, and tossing the victim off a bridge (We the People). The night of the murder the three met at midnight, Tessmer later decided to drop out of the plan. Without Tessmer, Simmons and Benjamin broke into Mrs. Crook's home, bound her hands, covered her eyes, and then drove her to a state park and threw her off a bridge. Although Simmons later pleaded innocence because of the evidence, leading up to the crime, Simmons had expressed to his two friends that he wanted to murder someone (Roper v. Simmons). He deliberately planned this murder for months and presented his plan to his two friends who later played a significant role in the ruling.…

    This principle is not found in traditional textbooks. It is based on new researches in linguistic and literary theory which have been imported into legal theory. The modern view is that language is made up of signs which are composed of a signifier and a signified. The relationship between this signifier (sound) and signified (meaning) is not fixed and meaning is produced only by difference between signifiers. We only recognize the difference between a cat and a dog because of the difference between the sound or word “dog” from “cat.” But the word “dog” has no inherent relation to that four-legged animal we often see making love on the sidewalk.…
