I can't see how a jury could choose to spare his life without Scott's professing remorse, admitting and accepting his guilt. And he can't do that now. In effect, Geragos' strategery has screwed his client..Nice touch, eh?
They should just take the clown to the back of the court parking lot and stone him.
I am sure all those trial groupies that showed up for the verdict would participate.
You're right....no remorse is a big part of this. I think Geragos thought the jury wouldn't go for the death penalty and told Scott not to even think of a plea deal. And I'm sure he fed Scott the old bit....no one gets executed anymore.
I wouldn't be surprised if the family wants the DP; he'll be in solitary and it will automatically appealed.
Scott won't fare too well in the general population.
That little drama will come later.
