I'm not an attorney, but somehow this doesn't seem like it's gonna fly. The law was not codified as criminal, and thusly lies the fatal flaw in TFA.
Congress has many times passed laws which were punitive without being criminal. For example, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) has punitive statutory damages in it.
I just don't think the argument will eventually hold much water, wish it held enough to float a battleship, but alas, I don't think so.
There used to be a show about dumb criminals and this guy - if memory serves me right - bragged about the hacking to just about anybody who'd listen, including his Betty Boop clock.
From Wikipedia Tsar or czar[1] (Russian: ÑÐÑÑOE (helpÂinfo), Bulgarian, Serbian: ÑÐÑ, in scientific transliteration respectively car' and car), occasionally spelled csar or tzar in English, is a Slavonic term designating certain monarchs.
Originally, the title tsar (derived from Caesar) meant Emperor in the European medieval sense of the term, that is, a ruler who has the same rank as a Roman or Byzantine emperor (or, according to Byzantine ideology, the most elevated position adjacent to the one held by the Byzantine monarch) due to recognition by another emperor or a supreme ecclesiastical official (the Pope or the Ecumenical Patriarch).
Occasionally, the word could be used to designate other, non-Christian, supreme rulers. In Russia and Bulgaria the imperial connotations of the term were blurred with time and, by the 19th century, it had come to be viewed as an equivalent of King.[2][3]
The modern languages of these countries use it as a general term for a monarch.[4][5] For example, the title of the Bulgarian monarchs in the 20th century was not generally interpreted as imperial.
"Tsar" was the official title of the supreme ruler in the following states:
* Bulgaria in 913â"1018, in 1185â"1422 and in 1908â"1946
* Serbia in 1346â"1371
* Russia from about 1547 until 1721 (after 1721 and until 1917, the title was used officially only in reference to the Russian emperor's sovereignty over certain formerly independent states such as Poland and Georgia).

When she virtually killed her virtual husband was it homicide of a virtual nature or was it virtually natural?
In other words, did she use a virtual weapon or was a weapon used virtually to kill her virtually virtual husband?
