Re: Scott Peterson Trial Verdict

Yeah yeah yeah the media sways everything...elections, criminal cases, etc...

Old News....

Interesting news I heard watching the Abrams Report on MSNBC a few days before the verdict. When that juror was tossed off the jury, they said that she was "feeling pity" and in court when the defense played an audio tape of scott being interviewed by the police, he started crying during the interview. The former juror started crying too and basically showed pity for him, while apparently the rest of the jurors basically sat there and looked at both the juror and the defense team and basically rolled their eyes.

Oddly enough I find it ironic how quickly a verdict was reached after the lady juror was removed....if Mark Gerigos doesn't appeal the case on grounds of juror misconduct or some kind of conspiracy reasoning, I will be very shocked (let alone most verdicts are appealed anyway...). Basically with the timing of that, it wouldn't shock me to see the verdict of the case overturned if that would happen. Although from what has been made public it does look like Scott Peterson murdered his wife and unborn child, we'll never know for sure...there's a lot that isn't made public to the average follower of cases that stays inside, so from the lack of knowing what goes on inside the courtroom, I don't see how anyone can take sides...but don't mind me, I'm just an armchair lawyer, like 99.9999999999999999999% of America in this case...


On the other hand what I found ironic about this case is a reference to the 1993 Stallone movie, Demolition Man, where at the beginning when they were pulling up the list of convicted prisoners up for parole, there was a name up for parole up that day along with Wesley Snipes' character....

and that name was: "Peterson, Scott"

pretty weird if you ask me
