Thank you that article clarified things..
The point is I guess even if he gets life in prison, it will still be a death sentence.
I feel that there was a mistake in the article. It states that Danielle's "front teeth knocked out" it implies her two front teeth (central incisors) were knocked out.
Not so... (central front -both were there)
The teeth that were missing are the ones called lateral incisors the same teeth that are next to the front teeth.
Also, what's really interesting about the teeth is that, if you look at her passport photo. It looks like she is missing those teeth. Actually, those were permanant adult teeth that were just showing there crown ( they were short because they were just comming down from the gum line on each side of the center front teeth.
The forensic dentist- Sperber thought it was odd too, that those teeth were missing. He found only sockets.
IMO--those teeth were PULLED OUT, not knocked out. Because if they were knocked out her front teeth would have been missing too.

Now *this* I did not know. I had assumed front teeth.
I;ll need to give that some thought. Thank you for adding new information.

Btw, this was favorite quote from that article:
If they recommend death, Superior Court Judge William "Billie" Mudd -- who prefers to be refered to by attorneys as "Padre" rather than as "Your Honor" -- would then immediately make the final decision between life and death. "Hang the the sonofabitch. Get me a rope."

Thanks juzcuz...if what you are saying is correct, (I seem to recall the same info about the teeth) then this is just another example of mistakes & misleading statements that the media makes, whether intentional or not!

Any idea why someone would pull them out? Anyone?
