How Do You Sleep at Night?

Two assholes Bouldarians, Richard McLean (a former district court judge and former Boulder mayor) and Edith Stevens his female, lawyer, sidekick, claim they have been using their neighbors backyard for so long that they now own it. Using some legal tool called Adverse Possession, they claimed the rights to the property of Don and Susie Kirlin. They want it, don't want to pay for it and think they should have it cause they claim they've been using it for over 18 years (a legal arbitrary limit).

They apparently won their case in court, but the Kirlin's are disputing the case. In the original case, the McLean and Stevens used a trail across the property, called 'Edie's path' (too cute guys), as proof that they had been using the property a long, long time. Now the Kirlin's are claiming that the trail is new and that they have photographic proof. The lawyer for Mclean and 'Edie' (sounds like a 70's sitcom) are saying that legally, so what, they should have brought this up the first time.

Nicely done. But there's more. They are upset that other people have a problem with this and outraged that anyone would think they fabricated this trail of evidence, "I became an attorney because I believe in the law," Stevens said, choking up as she spoke. "I tried cases and I always instructed my witnesses to tell the truth. I would not go into a courtroom and lie. Any suggestion we had plotted to seize the land is just false."

Why would anyone think that? Oh, except that you trespassed on your neighbor's property and then claim you own it.
