Story is she'll be okay with a couple of days rest and meds. If she doesn't come back, His Majesty will draw one of the alternates.

If a new juror is selected and doesn't believe that DW was proven guilty, how can they determine life or death?

[Jaded]

I don't think at this point that makes a difference. The only determination would be life in prison or t'kill 'im. If the jury hung on this decision then Dusek would have the option to re-try, as it were, the penalty phase. If he opted not to which seems unlikely the judge could impose the sentence. I may be incorrect that the judge has the choice of penalty and that the judge can only impose life.

Daffy, flowers do grow out of piles of "nightwaste". (That's an antique term.). Murders however require proof, hard proof beyond ANY reasonable doubt. Not just emotion, not just a propaganda blitz. Sorry so many rats around all in wait to pile on and chew on the corpse, but that is a historical social dynamic. Animalistic, beneath contempt, but the facts. Sad facts.

More factual than this evil report about a Grand-Dad.
