News Alert: Scott Peterson Verdict to be announced today at 4:00 Eastern Time.
So soon after they have a new foreman?
I thought they were off today.
I don't know how to do odds. If we're going to post our predictions, I will optimistically say "guilty", but am wise enough to expect just about anything.
IF he's found guilty, will the conviction hold up on appeal? Personally, I have my doubts.
I didn't know he was a fisherman. I thought he was a golfer!
Exactly. Whatever this 13- or 14- or 15-member jury decides will not be accepted by anyone.
Hopefully, they'll vote guilty, but I'm not placing any bets. At least then, there'd be an appeal and another trial. If Scott goes free, can the State file for a mistrial?
Guilty, 2nd Degree.
In my opinion they never proved absolutely that he murdered her. Therefore, the death penalty shouldn't be on the table, imho.
But there's a chain of circumstantial evidence that says Peterson PROBABLY killed her. The defense offered no strong alternative....a remotely possible one.
I think I would vote to convict him.
But...I think they'll come back as not guilty.
I'll bet $0.001 (one tenth of a penny) that the jury finds him guilty :-)
NO, I'm not going to bet! LOL.
sw
Guilty. No way they let this guy walk. Especially since the judge bounced the jurors leaning not guilty. Thank god this thing is over.
I say Guilty.
You saw that too? I was shaking my head at her questions/comments.
"Did that for sale sign on that house go up after the murders? I see an unattended newspaper - have the neighbors left the area?"
And my favorite: "Coming up - Was this a RANDOM ACT? OR do neighbors need to be afraid?"
I'm just going to be sick if he gets "not guilty"....OJ revisted.
They said VERDICT.
The Fox News Alert states: Peterson Verdict Coming at 4PM Eastern, 1PM Pacific.
y'know - I don't care. If he did it (he did) and is convicted - fine, the inmates will take care of him. If he is released and walks aimlessly the rest of his (short) life like O.J. then society will probably figure out a way to rectify the situation. He will not likely get a pay-per-view interview either. But this is REALLY BIG NEWS because we won't have to hear about this godforsaken trial anymore.
Oops. Sorry. Old habits die hard.
Freakin GUILTY!! Hang the Bastard!
Who's Scott Peterson?
The new juror sat on two prior juries, curious to know what the verdicts were in those two cases
Anybody here good with knots?
