{When will Amercians learn the meaning of "momentarily"?)

The jury in the Jerry Sandusky child molestation case has reached a verdict. The media has received a twenty-minute verdict notification, which means that the result will be announced in twenty minutes.
Jerry Sandusky is a former Assistant Coach for Penn State The high-profile began last year when almost a dozen people came out, revealing that Sandusky has molested them, which then resulted in the firing of Penn State Head Coach Joe Paterno.
Sandusky faces 48 counts against him and up to 400 years in prison. Most legal analysts have predicted that he will be found guilty on most, if not all, charges.
Several minutes before the verdict was reached, the jury asked for clarification on testimony that a janitor gave. The janitor stated that he heard that a fellow employee had witnessed Sandusky had raped a child. This, however, is hearsay because he did not witness it himself. The jury was certain how to apply this to their deliberation.

12 hours of deliberation, no doubt about it: GUILTY.

Recall thinking the same thing (Guilty) when the OJ jury came in after a short amount of time.
Friday night is not a good time to have a verdict reached in your trial. The jurors are ready to go home. Guilty!
Sandusky has now entered “through the rear entrance”
Can’t blame them. Who the hell wants to spend a summer weekend cooped going over that crap.
Oh good! Just got my Foxnews Breaking News email saying the verdict is in. What's the verdict?

I sincerely hope a 300lb 6’5” Bubba has some plans for this sick pedophile.
GUILTY
Verdict in - not announced yet, however. (They are gathering, as we speak.)

It’s funny that our local media has been covering this trial so extensively; yet, as far as I can tell, none of them have broken away from regular programming to cover the verdict.
It’s dangerous in prison to be labeled “short eyes”. That’s exactly what Sandusky will be called, assuming he’s found guilty and receives a prison sentence.
