A little good news, but still no justice for Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom.

From the article:

“The men had been convicted of various crimes”

Yeah, whatever you do, don’t list those various crimes. What these animals did still pisses me off.

Meanwhile, from Baumgartner's trial:

Portraits of ex-judge Richard Baumgartner:
'Man of many sins'; liar protecting drugs and sex

The extended trauma that the families of Christian and Newsom have had to endure is appalling. The torture and murder of the couple is the most heinous murder scenario that I have ever read. Justice delayed is justice denied. Get justice for those families, NOW!

I'm glad they did what was right. Blackwood was way too deeply involved in the other aspects this case. The fact he handled Bumgartners case with the results we saw happen made a lot of persons skeptical and just down right disgusted at the court. Blackwood seemed to try every way to grant a new trial and too also be the judge. There was a lot of mistrust generated. A look by another judge no matter what his conclusion about a possible retrial will be more accepted.
