Don't tighten any bolts all the way until you have them all in just enough to hold the corner together. Then tighten one corner a little more, then the opposite corner, and keep doing that all the way around until all are tight. That way you don't find yourself fighting with one corner that...
Twice on a jury. No murder trials.
For what it's worth, I also would have hung the Casey Anthony jury. In my opinion, there was more than sufficient evidence to convict.
Herd mentality is not easy to take a stand against. I would lay odds than in many trials there are jurors who after...
The jurors placed a great deal of emphasis on the video. They viewed it numerous times. If I were on a jury that was that obsessed with video evidence I would want to know if there was more to it and I would have given it no consideration upon finding out it was not the whole story.
That's...
I don't like videos being played in court unless they are played in their entirety. The silly string video was shown in clips that put Darlie in a negative light. Had the video been shown in full, a juror or two might not have been so quick to condemn.
The sock has always bothered me. With...
I don't know for certain that she's innocent but I would have hung that jury. For me, guilt was not proven beyond reasonable doubt.
The investigation was tainted by serious tunnel vision by LE. If there is anything that can show she might be innocent, I want it investigated.
In too many states to count these children's services agencies are not doing the jobs they were created to do. Children are suffering and dying because of indifference and it is high time agency staff be held accountable each and every time they fail to protect a child. I am sick of hearing of...
People have been convicted and people have been acquitted based on looks. Maybe not many based 100 percent on looks but human beings are swayed by a lot of things and our society is one that places a lot of weight on how a person looks, dresses, where they live, etc. I think OJ is guilty as...
I can't recall or find any information on why the state agreed to a deal with Adams for a life sentence. Wasn't that right at the start of the penalty phase? It was a death penalty case but all of a sudden there was a deal for LWOP.
Does anyone know why such a deal was agreed to, or under...
I believe this to be a guarantee you can honor. Chris Watts--another baby killer--is housed in an out of state prison solely for his own protection and even with that he will never rest easy.
I agree with this but have to say that when the new sketch was released his chin is the first place my eyes went. The size and shape are not unusual enough that I suspect he has some sort of jaw or oral issue, but it is not unnoticeable for sure.
And I believe the killer knew the area well and knew that it was likely someone would be in that particular area on a reasonably nice day which apparently that February day was. I do not think he planned on taking two victims but that's the opportunity that presented and he was confident they...
If I recall correctly, the girlfriend called it in after the description of the car was released but did it mostly to be assured it was all just coincidence. I read about her denial and eventually making the call in an article about Ann Rule. Rule had interviewed the girlfriend while preparing...
It could be that the perp showed up to help search because he is someone who would be expected to be there. IOW, it would raise suspicion if he did not participate in the search.
I think when perps participate in any way in searches, etc., it is out of curiosity to know what is found and also...
I think he had motive and it was sexual assault. I am not convinced that took place due to the time constraints but I think it was his plan. Possibly the girls were more assertive than he thought they would be. They may have tried to flee and he had to abort his original plan but knew he...
Respectable and trustworthy is how Bundy was viewed by everyone around him. No one thought he might be a murderer. One of his good friends was Ann Rule, author of true crime books. She actually wrote "The Stranger Beside Me" about Bundy after he was captured. She said she was as shocked as...
