It’s more than a good bet, it’s a slam dunk. The defense theory put forth without any evidence, makes zero sense. Why hide an accident? Why would slutmom DELETE her incriminating searches for neck breaking, etc? Why would she have claimed to have spoken to her daughter shortly before the 911 call? Why obstruct the police? Why was Larry Mokirlyjo put in charge of the jury? Why was the woman juror who did come forward twice held back from second grade? OK I made that last one up. There was no evidence she was held back from second grade a second time.

What would be wrong with states, or maybe even localities, requiring potential jurors to take a minimum competency test? They would still be a jury of peers in that slutmom was a cunning liar.

Competency test? Not a good idea. You can cure ignorance; but not stupid.

Who is this person? (I'll ask you first before I google.)

LOL...I needed that.

I'm with you. At the very LEAST a reading comprehension test, and maybe a little basic science and math. When I was in 8th grade we had to pass a Constitution test to be promoted, would it be asking too much for juries to at least have this much competence? If not, someone show me where it would be unconstitutional.

BTW, loved your whole post.

Oh, never mind. I just now saw your tagline. LOL...I'll bet they "got deliberated" too!
