Yep. Kearney pleading for mercy. If I was on that jury, I'd be sayin' to myself. "Yeah, we'll show her mercy, alright - Chante Mallard Style !!"

I feel sorry for her parents who appeared to be decent people.

I read today that the two guys (Jackson and Cleveland) who helped her dump the body in the park received sentences of 10 years and 9 years respectively, for "obstruction of justice" and "tampering with evidence."

Yes, those two guys got lighter sentences for testifying against Mallard. One of them was on probation after being in prison. Nice to have such friends, huh ??

Shall we take guesses of how long a sentence?
I predict the jury will be lenient because of her record of no other offenses, a biggie in determining punishment, although it would not be with me.
Am guessing 20 years, but then she would be eligible for parole after 10.
Also, on Fox, Liz Weil said the JUDGE CAN COMPLETELY ALTER THE SENTENCE TO HIS CHOICE!!!
Interesting, hmmm.
Any guesses as to his demeanor during this trial?

Yes they do. This will take longer than the Guilty verdict, no doubt.

Every jury I've been on has always had one whiney knucklehead. In each case, the knucklehead was wrong too! I could have wrung necks those days! :O)

I might add- I would give her life with no parole.
This type of horror crime is almost a flagship for future defenses blaming drug use as an excuse.
Not that we haven't had many horrible crimes, but the shocking fact of an attitude like hers of ME,ME,ME overrides any moral decisions.
Imagine that crime multiplied many times perpetrated by people that had NO MORAL UPBRINGING as she had, she had every reason, according to her upbringing to make the right decision, despite drug use!!!

Just 20 years, huh ?? Well, I'd give her life, but that's just me.

But there are 12 people there, and none of 'em is me. :O)

I'd say more like 50 years to life is where they'll land.

The CTV reporter said the jurors responded to the prosecutors closings and listened politely to the defense.

I'd give her life, too. I'm gonna bet the jury comes down very hard on her.
