It took a long time due to the huge number of testimonies that were given.
Closing statements for the trial happened on Tuesday.
The Jury Deliberation only took a day and a half before they reached their "Guilty" verdicts on all counts.
I was at the Justice Center today, about 15 minutes before the verdicts were read. (I drop off our Inmate workers back to the jail at the end of the day)
The media were all gearing up with their live broadcasts.
Hopefully they will decide the death-penalty, but that still doesn't guarantee that it will ever happen.
Punishment should be forthcoming, and swift once ruled. Not this long drawn-out appeals process bullshit that always takes place. :ireful:
