Interesting list of the items found in Sherzer's Hotel Room.

One of the notebooks was supposedly written by Scherzer in
"Hungarian" [sic]

(the language is known as Magyar)

The black Doctor's kit bag is a nice touch...

Prosecution rests in juvenile sex case against doctor

Closing arguments could be made Monday afternoon

Among the items found in the hotel room and introduced as evidence
Friday:

A black bag similar to an old-fashioned doctor's kit, containing
tweezers, a stethoscope, a statuette of Hippocrates, the ancient Greek
"father of medicine," and two sex toys -- "tools for degrading and
humiliating this ninth-grader," Assistant U.S. Attorney Maria Murphy
called them in her opening statement.

Stabler acknowledged that while playing the part of the girl, he
broached the idea of Sherzer buying the sex toys for the hypothetical
encounter.

Several bottles of liquor and two shot glasses, as well as two books
of cocktail recipes.

At least two dozen unopened condom packets.

Three bottles of Viagra with the prescription in Sherzer's name.

Several notebooks containing meticulous entries on moving from
Baltimore to Shreveport by way of Miami and Mobile. One notebook
contained lists of goals, written in Hungarian, that showed the
writer's desires to become a doctor, be responsible, have a wife and
family, socialize well and have sex with "lots of pretty girls," an
FBI linguist testified.

Boxes of books, including philosophy, poetry, Harper Lee's "To Kill a
Mockingbird," works by Fyodor Dostoyevsky and the playwright Henry
Miller, chess manuals and medical journals. Prosecutors highlighted
several other titles like "Secrets of Seduction," "How to Be the Best
Lover a Girl Ever Had," "A Guide to Picking up Girls," a psychology
treatise subtitled "How We Change After We Lose Our Dads" and a copy
of "Lolita," Vladimir Nabokov's notorious novel about a man's sexual
fascination with a 12-year-old girl.

The black Doctor's kit bag is a nice touch...

Isn't it?

Among the items found in the hotel room and introduced as evidence
Friday:

A black bag similar to an old-fashioned doctor's kit, containing
tweezers, a stethoscope, a statuette of Hippocrates, the ancient Greek
"father of medicine," and two sex toys -- "tools for degrading and
humiliating this ninth-grader," Assistant U.S. Attorney Maria Murphy
called them in her opening statement.

Did he note that this was their intended purpose?

Stabler acknowledged that while playing the part of the girl, he
broached the idea of Sherzer buying the sex toys for the hypothetical
encounter.

Oops.

Several bottles of liquor and two shot glasses, as well as two books
of cocktail recipes.

At least two dozen unopened condom packets.

Three bottles of Viagra with the prescription in Sherzer's name.

All legal.

Several notebooks containing meticulous entries on moving from
Baltimore to Shreveport by way of Miami and Mobile. One notebook
contained lists of goals, written in Hungarian, that showed the
writer's desires to become a doctor, be responsible, have a wife and
family, socialize well and have sex with "lots of pretty girls," an

All legal.

Where's the crime or the probable cause for the thought crime?

All legal.

Maybe. If he wrote himself a prescription for a drug he doesn't need, that's a
crime.

This was by no means a howler: 'Hungarian' and 'Magyar' are both
acceptable names of the language in English, and the former is more
commonly used by far.

Hello??? Among English speakers, that language is known as Hungarian.
Just like among English speakers, the language they speak in France is
known as "French". It's not known as "Francais".

Not this crime, however.

Magyar is factually correct.
