He showed up and yes, his testimony helped sink him. He said he never wore those "Ugly-*advertiser censored** shoes" but they found photos of him in those same "Ugly-*advertiser censored**" shoes. However, the civil trial attorneys did a much better job of detailing the evidence and didn't have as much of the circus atmosphere.

I understood it to be that when tested, the presence of chloroform was at a "high level" and yes, relative to the other gases present (which seemed to present a normal or usual level) but the exact amount of chloroform would be known. You can't get a ratio without having the exact amounts of...

I like to stick to reason, statistics (with the understanding that "there are lies, damned lies, and statistics") and common sense, but even so... "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." "Hamlet," William Shakespeare

Tthe odds of a lightning strike on a tree, in a severe thunderstorm, are pretty high. Cloud to ground lightning strikes are conservatively estimated as 25 million a year. Taller trees are the most common targets. "Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous" is one of my favorite...

That's going to be hard for her, because she has never faced real consequences for her actions. It's almost impossible to change when you suffer no pain--and in this case, are rewarded--for your actions.

She won't come to Texas; she's a celebrity now. (On with the Belle Vita!) If she gets broke or between money fixes, I bet she'd ask for money to get here--and then maybe show up or not. The sad thing is, if the cousin is for real, the willingness to suspend reality for fantasy apparently...

And how quickly Juror #9 had a press agent...Darn near miraculous.

We're going to DisneyWorld in a few days. We're going to mention it in line, frequently, and see if anyone around us flinches. Eerie sidenote: We vacationed at DisneyLand after Laci Peterson disappeared (I think it was before the trial, but after Scott Peterson was arrested.) We stood in...

Jurors: If you were truly sick to your stomachs, then you were convinced of Casey Anthony's guilt by the evidence you saw. You cannot have it both ways. You cannot say you were physically ill, did not vote for "innocence" but then acquitted of her all charges regarding Caylee Anthony's...

The statistical odds that 12 people, strangers to each other before the trial, would have exactly the same opinion on every one of the charges-- Incredibly small. They talked. And they talked in such a way, that they were deciding the case before they heard all the evidence. I hope...

My first thought wasn't if she'd get pregnant again, it was how long it would take her. As for her book, If I Did It, (Too) would make it a best seller.

He wasn't mentally ill by the legal definition in most states including Texas. He knew what he did was against the law and therefore wrong. It's actually a pretty decent standard in terms of mental illness--in trying to establish some sense of responsibility for the person who did the crime...

That makes a lot of sense to me. When he had to pick sides, he did. I feel terrible for the families and soldiers involved. I feel like they were let down in terms of security and protection. An army base shouldn't have the same number of casualties or so, from a shooter, than a high school...

I think this is very possible. If you go day to day denying or hiding up the truth, it's not hard to make it to the end in just the same way.

I want the book. I've read his previous ones, and he was definitely thrown under the bus in the OJ trial.

To this day I don't sleep with open windows, thanks to Ramirez. The fact that he's not dead by now is a travesty.

Rachel is not forgotten by so many of us. We hope and pray for her and her family. I hope this will be the year Mr. Cooke gets answers for Rachel.

I saw the CNN article on Jason today and immediately thought of Kelly and her family. My heart goes out to them and prayers for them as well.

Please, not this year, we're still repairing and getting over Hurricane Ike!

The neighbors said she seemed a bit "in her own world" which I think, for a 33 year old woman, is not a good thing. I am sure her family never dreamed she could be so violent. I agree, there is no good ending for this.
