Could have gone with a hung jury then. At least the case could have been re-tried later on...Whatever...nation of idiots, arrogant shmucks abound and everything is upside down in this topsy turvy society.
That’s what was the most shocking thing to me. I understand there being a bunch of idiots on the jury...but I found it hard to believe that there wasn’t one person in that room that didn’t dig their heels in and say manslaughter is the bare minimum and hang the jury.
I can tell you this...if my child was missing for 30 days and I had not reported it, and then his body was found in the lake in our neighborhood with duct tape on his face traced to the roll in my house, wrapped in a laundry bag and blanket from my house, his post-mortem hair in my trunk, and multiple searches for chloroform on my computer and chloroform samples in my car, with a cadaver dog making a hit on it as well, and I had lied and lied and lied and lied to the authorities....in the great state of Georgia, I’d be sitting on death row. And deservedly so.
