LOL.... Yeah, right.....o_O Yeah, right. BC never linked sex and violence before. Sure. I'm sure it went down in his head just like this.... "WOW!!! Terra opened up a whole new world for me!!! I can't believe it!!! Violence can be part of sex!!!!!! Wow! Think of all the avenues to...

There is one thing we can hope for: He may have concluded that revealing what he did wouldn't help him avoid the death penalty, but whether he gets life in prison OR death, agreeing to cooperate with investigators and tell them everything he did regarding her remains might be able to get him...

It is awful, no matter how you look at it. Even if he gets death, as I think he deserves. Nobody wins. It will be a victory, but it will feel hollow. Empty.

I'm assuming they will have the viewing room in Urbana open for the sentence, and that they will give 30 min notice before announcing it, as they did before for the guilt phase. Probably no way I could get there that rapidly, but if I hear the announcement and can, I will try to go.

No amount of Drano could erase what they say happened [in the bathroom]" she says. AUSA Miller would later dispute this claim in the government's rebuttal BS. Most blood can be washed down the drain, and if he didn't run the water long enough, then the drano he used would eventually deal with...

There are plenty of small/medium sized rivers within easy driving distance. Many of these have long stretches that don't pass through towns but border completely on farmland. IF he were to chop her up and toss remains in one or a few of these, some remains would drift a bit and be scattered...

That had to be so hard for her mom. Every time i see her, I just feel so awful...........

Again, couldn't take notes because my damn pen died, but Nelson mentioned she still has not been found and may never be found, and he made a big deal about tape 29 and BC mentioning that he would never tell where she was and that she was gone forever. Putting it the way you put it, having him...

Got to run, but it sounds credible. Remember, they don’t have to provide ABSOLUTE 100% irrrefutable proof. Just proof beyond a reasonable doubt. Jurors are allowed to use their common sense and make inferences. They are also allowed to weigh testimony and 3vidence and decide what they...

Went to closing arguments. Saw the prosecution. Had to leave before the defense. Took a long time to get going, because Shadid read the jury instructions *before* the arguments, and that took forever and a day. My pen died during the arguments, so I couldn’t take notes, but I remembered a...

Not sure, but at least they will have that option. Yingying’s family won’t. They might not even ever be able to visit her grave, at the rate this is going.......

It will go to the jury tomorrow, but I wouldn't expect a decision tomorrow. I don't think they will rush through it. They have to look at all the factors and aggravators step-by-step to ensure he is eligible for the DP, then if they get there, weigh the aggravators against any mitigating...

Hey, bring it up to him anyway. Maybe he knows something, or has a good idea. At this point, nothing can hurt.......

Those calls, especially the one on the 19th of June, are pretty damaging, IMHO They have put up audio/video from the guilt phase. I wish they would do so from the penalty phase

The agent’s first name is Andrew.

I look at all of that as "two can play at this game..." The defense is following ABA guidelines regarding DP cases; they call for basically pulling out all the stops and throwing everything including the kitchen sink, out there. So, the prosecution is countering by say ing that if the defense...

If someone had told me years ago that one day, Spongebob Squarepants would figure into a death penalty trial, I would have thought them insane......

Said it before, say it again: yes, it will be sad for his family if he is executed. But, they will have a measure of mercy and comfort that Yingying’s family may never have. They will have his remains. Also, there’s another thing they will have: time to say goodbye. They’ll have plenty of...

What I get from all the mitigation presentation is that there is absolutely nothing special in his life about him, or no special act or acts of kindness, bravery, valor, compassion, or no significant good deeds, that would warrant consideration for offsetting the cruel, sadistic, vicious act...
