Prosecutors sit down with ABC7 to break down the Ashley Benefield verdict

Thanks for sharing that Wishbone. Listening to their words, and reflecting on this case I think the prosecution did a nice job with it. There IMO were often rulings that did not go their way, and it seemed certain evidentiary matters not favorable to them as well. And from the evidence the jury formed a good conclusion. Will be interested in the sentencing when that occurs. MOO![]()

Since we didn't get to hear much from Doug's side I believe the state did the best they could. The judge will have to follow the guidelines for sentencing so she may not get the max. But, this is better than a NG or hung jury. I'm still of the belief that she premeditated the murder.JMOOThanks for sharing that Wishbone.

thanks for sharing this...potential of 30 years...I can sort of see this judge going with that or near and has to serve 85%. I like the no parole states. This early parole practice in my opinion is bad for society as so many are back again within a year or two.![]()

It sounds like the impass was one or more for 2nd degree and they compromised. I think I could do that if it meant avoiding a hung jury. I wonder what the split was. Interesting jury 5women 1 man and still the DV was apparently not believed or as the attorney said too far in the past. When she said that I tend to disagree..I think if you have suffered DV and are away from the abuser for some time and then again around them that fear never goes away.....but AB wanted him there that day and mother left her there alone...neither seemed to fear anything.Thanks for sharing that Wishbone.
