When you are moved to a different jurisdiction, you have to refile your habeas petition all over again. They want to wear people down so they'll give up on their cases.

Love to experiment with tools that have a reputation in being confidently wrong. Even in a small amount of the time, still feels fun to add that dice roll to a surgery!

Physical skill components are all about throwing the rocks accurately while gliding on ice which is definitely not easy.
But it is much more fine motor type skills over strength/endurance.
Maybe team archery with slow arrows you can influence the path of? Hehe

Something I think a lot of people aren't clear on, Liam's parents have followed the legal process of claiming asylum. They are here LEGALLY.
Liam was being used to try to lure someone ELSE out of the house. He and his father were taken because that failed.
Now ... they seek revenge.
