PETERSON GUILTY (Guilty 1st Deg M/Laci, Guilty 2nd Deg M/Conner w/Special Circumstances)

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

News Alert: Scott Peterson Verdict to be announced today at 4:00 Eastern Time.

[AnAmericanMother]

As a prosecutor she tended to go a bit overboard, the rule of thumb is not to get emotionally involved in the cases, but she did. She put her heart and soul into prosecutions - and at least once got reversed for that reason.

But there are plenty of slime in jail who deserve to be there, thanks to her hard work and dedication. I'd rather see a prosecutor err on the side of pushing too hard for a conviction, rather than just blowing it off as "just another day at the office."

But I think it took a toll on her. She's surely happier and less stressed in TV - at least it's a different kind of stress, anyhow.

We'll see what Garagos and clan say about this.

Geragos won't say a word; the Petersons are out of money, so we won't be seeing him around.

This case will no be reversed; changing jurors is not a reason to reverse a verdict.

[I'm ALL Right!]

I was talking about little Conner.

[JustPiper]

OMG my friend, I knew he was slime but...

[Houmatt]

Wonder if we will ever again see the death penalty carried out in CA??

As long as we see unrepentant, cold-blooded killers like Stanley Williams being nominated for the Nobel Prize, I'd say the answer is no.

And more's the pity.

San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me

You've hosted me since nineteen sixty three

I've seen 'em come and go and I've seen them die

And long ago I stopped askin' why



San Quentin, I hate every inch of you.

You've cut me and have scarred me thru an' thru.

And I'll walk out a wiser weaker man;

Mister Congressman why can't you understand.



San Quentin, what good do you think you do?

Do you think I'll be different when you're through?

You bent my heart and mind and you may my soul,

And your stone walls turn my blood a little cold.



San Quentin, may you rot and burn in hell.

May your walls fall and may I live to tell.

May all the world forget you ever stood.

And may all the world regret you did no good.



San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me.

I'm sorry.

Better?

[Peach]

I agree; can't remember the last case that won on appeal anyway.

[nopardons]

That's very astute of you.

[JustPiper]

I agree have studied these personality disorders from 1980

My eyeopner was Diane Downs

[My2Cents]

That was my thought too. VALUES, baby! Maybe this society has turned a corner.

[Howlin]

Beth Karas was pretty worked up, too!

November is shaping up very well.

President Bush reelected.
Daschle ousted.
Arafat planted.
Peterson guilty.
DOW up.

It's going to be a wonderful Thanksgiving.

[highlandbreeze]

Yep! I'm glad the jury found him guilty. Never really followed this case, but felt he had murdered Lacy and her baby.

Justice finally!

[sinkspur]

Where did Geragos get his reputation as a defense attorney?

He loses this case, lost the Winona Ryder case, and couldn't keep Susan McDougal out of jail, either.

I don't get it.

[Arizona Carolyn]

Greta said last night the court received over 100 phone complaints about the trailer... bet Scotts parents end up suing Geragos?

[Yaelle]

Thanks for the head's up about the early start -- Yes, J&K will be happy!

[JustPiper]

I'm sure Laci found out too late
