TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. -- People who cheat on their spouses know they could pay a steep price if caught. But life in prison?

It's possible in Michigan, however unlikely, according to a state appeals court judge. His comment, in a written ruling in a drugs-for-sex case, adds a new twist to perpetual debates over marital morality -- and whether judges should always uphold the letter of the law, even when doing so would produce a wacky outcome.

So when have you observed judges "upholding the letter of the law" in ANY case.

Laws on the books that should have been repealed a century ago are why things are so f-----d up currently.

Do you have a point?
