In layman terms, the way I understand it is that the ruling was not that the DP is unconstitutional but that the manner in which it is decided is unconstitutional. Jurors recommend DP but they do not state what aggravating factors they agreed upon to get them to that decision. The final decision whether to impose the DP rests with the judge on the case. He can agree with the DP but the federal judge felt that without knowing what aggravating factors the jurors used, the judge might be using different aggravating factors in his decision and that this is not what should happen.
There could be more to it but to my understanding of reading up on it, that was the major point I pulled out of it.
IMO
ETA - The ruling was from a Federal district court of appeals and as of now only affects the specific case and no others. There are many more levels of appeals to go before this is settled.
I thought Mr. Kronk's attorney was McClarin...or something like that...a caucasion man...:waitasec:
Some of us have suspected she been texting Cindy. or at least I have...
Apparently she's been doing something that she can't do now that the guard is there...
Bold mine.
Alot of us did. I know I did by the first interview that Cindy did...was that the Greta one?
I'm just catching up, if this has been mentioned previously...disregard
Lee's testimony...while he was stating where Cindy received her information for the PI search on Suburban drive...he kind of gives a half shrug, looks to his left (towards Defense table) and says "a Psychic tip". As if to say it came from her, KC...she is the Psychic. Like Helllloooo, she is sitting right there!!! Take a look at the video again...maybe I'm just dilusional
There was actually psychic tip. Cindy sent her one of Caylee's bears.
It's in Dom Casey's depos and such. The psychic was on NG tonight.

Yep, I was one of them. Usually when a child goes missing you see all kinds of family, not with the A's. I can't remember seeing ANY family member other than George, Cindy and Lee. No parents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, 2nd cousins, NADA and I thought it was very strange even way back then. George has a brother that still lives here in Ohio, I saw one brief blurb on our local news here but that was it.
There is footage from Saturday's debacle where DS keeps opening and closing a laptop, that she has put in front of the defendant. Each time a guard passed DS would close it and when they passed she would open it again. She also had a very long texting moment and handed her Blackberry to the defendant. Just go to the trial thread from Saturday.
