Thank you for that. I'm not expecting a max penalty, but a man's life has to be worth more than 7 years: http://www.roanoke.com/news/1971048-12/jury-finds-hamm-guilty-in-deadly-roanoke-stabbing.html

I've been away awhile but felt I had to stop by to vent. A friend of mine's murderer was convicted yesterday--2nd degree. I am elated but at the same time worried that the sentencing won't be harsh enough. Jury recommended 7 years, but the judge gives the final sentencing in two months. Seven...

It just occurred to me that we won't hear Juan do another cross-examination in this case. I'm going to miss hearing the sound of his voice! Does he get to do a rebuttal of JA's statement to the jury?

I know I wasn't the only one who thought Patti Womack sounded "medicated" in the Nancy Grace interviews.

I miss Juan.

Found some interesting info on the Priceline website. You can either purchase--or reserve--a car rental through them. If you reserve, it looks like you can use a different credit card at the rental desk. Could Juan have gone a step too far with this one? Has anyone ever rented a car through...

Some "light" reading, while we wait... Excerpts from Juan's literary references, closing arguments: Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Sonnets from the Portuguese XLIII How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height...

Some "light" reading, while we wait... Excerpts from Juan's literary references, closing arguments: John Donne, Meditation XVII "No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as...

Just read about Judge Belvin Perry's recent comments on the TODAY show. Says there was enough to convict (duh!), and he was "shocked" at the verdict. If it weren't for the jury questions in this case, I would not underestimate the stupidity of this, or any, jury pool. But they have proved their...

It has occurred to me over the past two days that Juan Martinez is not just an intellectual assassin, but a wordsmith. And a student of literature, poetry, and the human heart and mind! Juan's closing statement will go down as one of the most effective in legal history. Better than in the...

I need to find the video of JA testifying about returning the gas can, and talking about her injuries (after the "assault) to the jury. Anyone pull this together yet?

HH--You're wrong--again. He DID cross examine Jodi about it!

The magazines!!! I've been waiting for this for a long time...

Wonder what the people on that "other site" are saying today? I imagine most of them have very elevated depression scales.

You know, I think that might be the brother that had the issues with the law. Looks like him.

Maybe they have another lie lined up...that now she can't be sure if returned it to the same Walmart.

Can anyone recall the part of ALV's testimony where she mentions the "slap" across JA's face? Did Juan get some details of that wrong? I saw JA and JW shaking their heads a lot at that one.

I wonder if Juan will mention a good point Wendy Murphy brought up on one of the shows...That JA can't remember anything about the knife now, yet one of the NINJAS in story #2 had a knife! She remembers details when someone else is holding the weapon, but not when she's holding it.

Who is the guy with the bewildered look on his face, sitting on the defense side of the gallery? It's like he's concentrating really hard and not getting it.

I only have one word: "MASTERFUL." You're all doing such a great job commenting, I'm enjoying just sitting back and reading all the posts. A GREAT day for the Alexander family.
