As I've said earlier I'm a big believer in "jury nullification" in certain situations.My understanding of this case would cause me,as a juror,to contemplate a degree of "nullification". This case doesn't rise to the level of murder as *I* define the word. It's surely a crime in my opinion and warrants prison time but it doesn't come within a hundred light years of any of the killings that Ted Bundy...or OJ...committed.

Feel free to call me an old softy if you wish.

“...jury nullification...”

Did you see the court’s instructions to the jury before deliberations? They were given complete latitude to do whatever they wanted with her. They could find guilty or not guilty of murder or manslaughter. They were instructed to find guilty on manslaughter if they were hung on murder. They could consider her exculpatory narrative and the castle doctrine if they wished. Furthermore they could give her five or ninety nine years. What is to nullify?
