His life can never be the same again, but there’s countless places in the world where he’d be far from Holder’s thugs.
Verdict by dinner? That’s a pretty bold statement,whoever made it.
Aw man...Last thing this thread needs is a religion flame war.
“Pure speculation, and offered just for thought purposes only.
Minimally I would think each person would take 40 min to 1 hour to
express their opinions unless its a slam dunk either direction
Give the up to 1 hour thats 6 and i dont think we will see them stay
later than 11 pm tonight.
Even then they may just decide ok, we have a verdict, lets sleep on it
and finalize this in the AM.”
All quite true.
I guess that depends on what time you eat???
Comparing notes to what the lunatic prosecutor said in the closing statements?
Two hours to go.....
The are processed in place a jury has to follow. These taken time to complete even in quickly reached verdicts.
I remember the OJ jurors said something like they already had their minds made up, and they were just stalling time and asked for some evidence so they wouldn’t come with it too quickly.

Then there's Hasan, Holmes, the other creep, the Boston Bomber.........no self defense involved, multiple murders viewed by hundreds....and these trials will take years. Something is very wrong.
That was exactly my first thought. He'll not get close enough to 'touch' me with that thing.

Maybe he takes his weapons advice from SloJoe...
Yes. I was on a jury in a very simple assault case that was pretty clear cut and it took us like five hours just to go through stuff because some people wanted to do that.
Sorry thread title, I’m getting something to eat
They ought to be arrested for the bounty they put out on GZ in 2012.
