Ash Wednesday Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 I don't think I have much else to say. Just totally shocked. I guess it's just a shock because, well, you just have a hard time imagining this kind of thing happening. Of course abortion happens every day. But still... shock! One of the jurors apparently is a devout Catholic who consulted a priest before serving on the jury. And, I suspected he did the deed, but we can't pass judgement on his soul. Either way, Peterson needs to find God. Prayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.R.D Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 I dont belive it I dont even think he did it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Wednesday Posted November 12, 2004 Author Share Posted November 12, 2004 Well, what the public thinks doesn't matter...guilty or not. I'm more inclined to trust a jury that's been sitting through five months of this than my own ears hearing sound bytes from the news. God have mercy on Peterson, and us all.

J.R.D Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 What about the 2 jurors they kicked out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Wednesday Posted November 12, 2004 Author Share Posted November 12, 2004 Well, one of them did her own internet research outside of court, which is a no-no. I don't know what happened to the foreman (the second one removed.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thy Geekdom Come Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 I think he did it. It may not have been beyond reasonable doubt, but who in his right mind tries to flee the country with thousands of dollars after his wife disappears? Sometimes circumstantial evidence really should be enough... The foreman was a doctor and a lawyer...I got the feeling that he was using his professional knowledge too much and talking about things that he saw that weren't mentioned in the trial...

dUSt Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 This is the most important part of this case: "Scott Peterson has been found guilty of first-degree murder in the death of his wife Laci,[color=red] [b]and second-degree murder in the death of their unborn son, Conner. [/b][/color]" Hmm... Killing the unborn is murder? Oh wait, no, it's a woman's choice... Oh wait... The law can't possibly contradict itself can it?

Ash Wednesday Posted November 12, 2004 Author Share Posted November 12, 2004 Yeah, the Connor factor really makes one think about abortion. I think you're right Raph, that the foreperson may have been having a difficult time with other jurors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaxVobis Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 Don't you think that having 2 jurors kicked out and 2 replacements is going to be a very easy thing to use in appeals court? Peace, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
