IIRC tomorrow was a 10:30 AZ time start? I'll be here too. Waiting. Praying these Jurors get this right.
 
The waiting is hard. I can't imagine how much harder for the cousins who loved Jhessye. Hoping the jury is being conscientious and thorough but at the end of the day comes back with a guilty verdict.
 
My heart breaks for those Cousins. One can tell they doted and loved her from those lovely pictures of her. Such a beautiful little lady. I cant imagine what they went thru when Jerice had Jhessye back and then her horrific death. I'm glad Jhessye at least got to know love for most of her short life.
 
Thanks for posting the candle link. I'm not sure what it is about those but they make me feel like I can somehow carry some of the burden for the family or lighten their load in some small way. I know that isn't realistic but I wish so much that her siblings could understand that there are people in the world that would gladly offer them the love and protection a child deserves.

I can't imagine their confusion, realizing how many of their family members stood behind Jerice. Who would they trust to protect them? Obviously CPS did nothing but verify the fact that unless they took the abuse and kept quiet, Jerice could treat them anyway she chose to. The adult cousins had no power to help, so how could a child escape?

It's just so heartbreaking.

Yes, according to the PIO it's 10:30 AZ time:

MC Superior Court ‏@courtpio · 18m18 minutes ago
The jury in the State v #JericeHunter has left for the day. Deliberations will resume on Monday at 10:30 am.
----

I realize it's been a long trial for the jurors and they've been limited to a short deliberation schedule but all three days they left before they had to, on Thursday by almost a half hour. Unless they all decided to sleep on the verdict over the long weekend I truly don't understand not spending every allowable minute discussing this and arriving at a decision. I hope they'll give an interview after they're released and give us some insight into how things went, not particulars, just an overview.

I am not ready to give up on them yet. I am hoping they are just being very thorough. I will be sooooooo upset if this monster gets set free to take her children back into her clutches.

We're even, I want to be a Bee when I grow up. ;)

I'm a bit surprised the court hasn't insisted they spend the time allotted in the jury room deliberating, I understand the need for flexibility but leaving early every day? This judge must be incredibly patient. Let's see what happens tomorrow but if similar behavior is exhibited, I'll join you in the tantrum. :o

During closing arguments, the defense made small issue of the blood found in the closet. They attributed it to a nosebleed! Well, friends, how often does a child, age 5, have a nosebleed in the corner of a closet which is obviously not attended to by a parent or sibling? A caring mother, observing her tot in her closet, obviously bleeding heavily from a nose bleed does not immediately apply numerous tissues and pressure to stop it? Oh, maybe the "nosebleed" was caused by said child being punched in the nose by a short-tempered mother who's kept her in there for whatever reason?

One "little" item that I picked up put into the hands of a jury requires a decent amount of discussion, to be sure. Add to that all the other issues and you have lots of time debating how Jerice treated Jhessye.

I'll be the first to admit I was wrong about this being a quick verdict. We know so much more about Jerice than the jury. It's easier for us. We've been hashing this case out for a couple of years already! We know she was found guilty of some pretty serious abuse of her children before... enough to warrant a healthy jail sentence. Oh, if only the jury could have known that!

Hi, hope I say this right! I haven't followed this case as many of you have. I must post though. I believe Law not allowing the jury to know of mothers charges and time served in prison is a miscarriage of justice . Maybe I am wrong on wording but this is not right!!! suppose mother released as Jury didn't know facts. What will it do to remaining
children to be returned? many things could happen. If one or more should consider or use suicide I wouldn't want to be in the courts shoes!! Arizona needs to learn they are not God. They need a complete overhaul of their judicial system, and NOW. FGS this verdict involves the lives of children..IMO.
 
I've been trying to keep my mind off the jury and verdict this weekend because I get all worked up and antsy just thinking about it. I didn't expect it to take this long but I understand they had a lot to go over. However, I think they've had enough time now. I'm praying for a guilty verdict tomorrow, it's time.
 
Patience is a virtue and we must be some truly virtuous "ladies in waiting" as we wait here for Justice for Jhesseye
 
My Thanks button is not working? So Thanks lol ^. I remember one Court day there was a tweet about one of the pregnant Jurors looking uncomfortable. IIRC there are 2 pregnant? And both made the final pick? Perhaps that is why days have been a bit shortened? Yep I'm going to go with that. For now.
 
Now my thanks button is working. Go figure????
 
I don't want to wait much longer either! I am praying that today is the day, even though I can't be here until deliberations are well underway.

As to the possibility of an acquittal and Jerice getting custody; I think the child welfare officials will have something to say about that. She is a proven child abuser. Her children have told them about Jhessey's physical condition.

If the jury doesn't find her guilty, she will have a tough time getting any child under her control.
