Jury recommended LWOP for count 1 murder of Joseph, and death penalty for counts 2 - 4, Summer and the boys.Sorry guys just checking in whilst at work so can’t read back through thread at mo. Did he get LWOP?
Thanks @Tortoise. Why the inconsistent approach do you think for Joey?Jury recommended LWOP for count 1 murder of Joseph, and death penalty for counts 2 - 4, Summer and the boys.
Hasn't been formally sentenced yet. That's at end of September.
I didn't hear him say he was going to investigate the jury's decision.
I heard him say there was one other matter he needed to see them about in chambers, and he invited counsel in to be present for that. That was after he thanked and praised them for the way they had approached both phases of their deliberations. I also heard him say he wants reports prepared by the probation services before sentencing.
It's just a guess but I think they believe Joey was killed first or was the first one attacked, and that murder wouldn't have satisfied the requirements for the death penalty but the others do because it then became multiple murders, happening in succession.Thanks @Tortoise.

It seems to be academic anyway because of the three death penalty verdicts.
imo
LOL again at Law & Crime. This time they had a special guest in - attorney Terri Austin - to discuss the penalty verdict. They're stumped because of the eligibility for the DP in California in murders for financial gain. Obviously neither of them watched the trial, to find out what special circumstance was put forward in this case, so I don't know why they continue to waste their time and misdirect their viewers. They seem to have carved out their very own campaign against the prosecution and the jury.
Why didn't they just take the time to watch the jury instructions? Multiple murders was the special circumstance found true by the jury.
That's very polite ocean, compared to my own thoughts.Lol! Special guest indeed.
Just another talking head who evidently didn't follow any of the trial.
And of course no one is going to correct them stating what the facts really were. The others seem to be as clueless as they are about the facts of the case.
But, hey, when did the facts ever matter?
It's obvious they didn't follow the trial because financial gain was not what the state used as the DP qualifier.
Is anyone as sick, and disgusted as I am with all of these clueless talking heads that act more like bobble heads?
Jmho

Am I being daft? I thought he'd already been sentenced?
You’re not daft. The judge does the official sentencing based on the jury’s decision. There is always a delay between the two.
Motion for mistrial I think is standard. Penalty phase, not guilt phase.What I'm very curious about is why Maline wanted to postpone the sentencing until September to file pre-sentencing motions. What kind of motions could we expect to see??
I just feel grief.
Just sadness and loss.
Before, it was a fight for justice.
There is no fight anymore.
Just the realization of what this Stupid, greedy, loser thing of a man did to this entire family.
I am not just talking about Joey, Summer and the boys. I am talking about Susan, Mikey, Dad, Patrick, the entire Arranda family and Joey's son from his first marriage.
God Bless each and every one of them.
What's another few months between fiends

Bets on a request to postpone the Sept sentencing ?it's all largely admin procedure now - so the wheels grind slowly
